> A couple of comments on your Ben Folds Five Naked Baby Photos review:
You didn't directly imply that "Eddie Walker" on NBP is taken from the b-side of the 7", but to clarify - the track on NBP is one that was recorded for the first album but not included, as was "Emaline". "Tom & Mary" is from the same session but was in fact included on the Japanese release of the CD. And "Video Killed the Radio Star" was supposedly recorded for a compilation of covers that never came out, so it may be that whoever was putting that together holds the rights to release that track.
There is still a wealth of old material that the band noodled around with before they signed with Caroline, including some stuff that Ben brought over from Majosha, like Kalamazoo and Rocky, that I'd like to hear updated. Maybe on the next album, if we're lucky.
