Series 3, Episode 9: "Non-Album Singles"
With its powers combined, The Beatles 1967 "double A-side" Penny Lane / Strawberry Fields Forever represents arguably the most heralded single in the history of pop music.
Adding to its allure is the fact that it was a "non-album single"; that is, neither of its songs were featured on any of the band's original albums. I hasten to add the word "original" because both songs — along with two other non-album UK singles — would later be included by Capitol Records on the 11-track US release of Magical Mystery Tour, which would eventually (i.e., in 1987) supplant its UK counterpart (a six-track "double EP") as the "official" version of the "album." (Yeah, it's kind of complicated...)
Anyway, as Chris wonderfully put it in his much timelier post below, tonight's episode of Rock Show will celebrate other non-album singles. Tune in!

Rock Show 10/19/2011: "Non-Album Singles"
Today's Rock Show will feature non-album singles: Those songs released by artists as singles, but not featured on an album. Are these a dying breed, or is the practice of non-album singles being resurrected by mp3 culture? Heck if I know.
UPDATE: Be on the lookout for a much more thought-out version of this post by Mike, which I just realized he's working on.

The Rolling Stones' Tattoo You written up on AV Club
My wife pointed me to this article on the AV Club about The Rolling Stones' Tattoo You. It has some interesting points to make about the Rolling Stones' great albums, their bad albums, and their great, bad albums. Maybe some Tattoo You should appear on tonight's Rock Show. What do YOU, the listeners, think?
