Complete 'B' Sides is a compilation album of songs by American alternative rock band Pixies. It features the B-sides for seven out of eight of their UK singles, as well as for one USA single, from the 1980s and 1990s. The eighth, "Letter to Memphis", had no B-sides. These singles are:
- "Gigantic" (1988)
- "Monkey Gone to Heaven" (1989)
- "Here Comes Your Man" (1989)
- "Velouria" (1990)
- "Dig for Fire" (1990)
- "Planet of Sound" (1991)
- "Alec Eiffel" (USA) (1991)
The album's booklet also features commentaries for each song by Pixies frontman Black Francis. Of "Velvety Instrumental Version", he writes, "The title implies that there was a version with lyrics, but there wasn't." A non-instrumental version, titled simply "Velvety", would later appear on Frank Black and the Catholics' 2002 album, Devil's Workshop.
