B-Side Babies is a compilation album by English new wave musician Adam Ant, released by Epic Records in 1994.[1] It is not to be confused with The B-Sides, a 7-inch EP of "Friends" b/w "Kick"/"Physical", released by Do It Records in 1982.[2]
Consisting primarily of single B-sides—both solo and with the Ants—the collection is described in the following manner on the back cover of the CD:[3]
