Them - Here Comes the Night - Non-Album Tracks (1964-1966)

Van Morrison is another great artist I plan on posting a lot of. But before getting to his long solo career, I'll first deal with his short career with Them.

Them put out two British albums, "The Angry Young Them," and "Them Again," plus a bunch of stray tracks. There's a compilation called "The Story of Them" that does a really great job of collecting all of Them's studio recordings. However, I have a few quibbles with it. One is that I'm not so interested in hearing alternate takes that are only slightly different, and that has some. Two, it's missing one key song, "Mighty like a Rose." But most importantly, I think Them is best heard in album-sized chunks of about 40 minutes each, instead of two CDs of about 70 minutes each.

So here are all the stray tracks, including the missing one. Plus, I found a couple of really nice live Them performances in soundboard quality, so I've added them on as bonus tracks at the end. The album is 47 minutes long, which would have been very long for that era, but possible. Of course, the bonus tracks make it even longer than that. ;)
