I think it would be fair to say that the B-sides and bonus tracks we have gotten so far from this album is the best collection since 90's. This is my ranking.
Simple Game of Genuis Amazing song. Could have easily been on the abum I say. But I guess Noel is creating a legacy for himself with putting songs like this in his back catalouge.
Alone on the Rope Such a good song. Love the eerie vibe. Great melodies. Could have been on the album. Really like it. Growing.
Let the Lord Shine a Light On Me Epic song. Not as epic as Simple Game of Genuis but that song is a masterpiece IMO. Beautiful production. Big lovely song.
I'd Pick You Everytime Fun song. Thats it.
The Good Rebel Doesn't do much. Think Liam would have made this song a cracker.
Those top three songs a A-Class. And I honestly thing that ASGOG will end up being a fan favourite. Hope he does a live version one day.
I think they are the best songs not included on an album since BHN and possibly MG.
How do rate the current batch of bonus tracks and B-sides?

I absolutely love The Good Rebel and cannot understand all the hate it gets here.

A Simple Game of Genius is easily on the top 3 of the album.
Thats pretty fucking impressive.

I don't like The Good Rebe or Let the Lord... But Alone on the Rope and ASGOG are both brilliant tunes that could of been a-sides. I'd Pick You Everytime is a great song, is there any official way for Americans to get this tune?

A simple game of genius should have been on the album to for me. Amazing song. Has alone on the rope been released anywhere ? and Will I'd pick you everytime probably be the b-side to If i had a gun if its released in the UK ?

The most played song on my iPod of all the none single songs is Let The Lord Shine A Light. Not sure why I love that song so much but something about it appeals to me in a big way. Really loving the vibe of the B'sides. Amazing time to be a fan if the Gallagher brothers.

I'm glad to see how much everyone is enjoying ASGOG but personally I'm not all that into it. I like it, but thats all. I loved that 18 min monster soundcheck version, but I think its the least best of the bside tracks we've got so far.
IPYET, TGR, LTLSALOM, AOTR...then ASGOG.

My list would be the complete opposite. I love AOTR and ASGOG equally as much, then LTLSALOM, then TGR and then IPYET

I like ASGOG, but for me it's nowhere near as good as AOTR or LTLSALOM.
I'd go
AOTR LTLSALOM ASGOG IPYET TGR

Seems unfair that everywhere can order it apart from the UK No you'd need someone outside the UK to order it for you. They can send you the digital bundle as a gift to your email, they'd just need to order it with their card details

Let the Lord Shine a Light on Me The Good Rebel Alone on the Rope I'd Pick You Every Time
Not heard ASGOG yet...waiting for my Japanese CD to arrive (might as well)
I quite like all the songs above. Hate myself a little for putting TGR above AOTR because part of me thinks it's a bit crap but the other part finds it quite catchy.
Gonna be controversial and say this is one area where I do prefer BDI so far though - no shame in that though as a few of my fave songs of theirs are b-sides/bonus trax (man of misery, bubble, WOMR)

Only on my second listen of ASGOG so far...but I think it's going to the top of this list. I fucking dig it. Gotta say, I think Noel got the tracklisting spot on for this one (assuming no more forthcoming b-sides from this album blow us away). Not necessarily because the ten album tracks are better but they fit together well as an album. But yeah, A Simple Game of Genius is a fucking gun song. Well done Noel.

Yes, 'Alone On The Rope' is one of his best songs ever. It stuns me that it isn't even a B-Side.

I think Alone on The Rope is absolutly amazing, a top tune... can't understand what is going to be the strategy behind it...
LTLSALOM is definitely one of my fav... cant possibly understand how its not int he album... its one of the most brilliant melodies Noel had ever come up with, its amazing!!
I really like ASGOG but I must say I was hoping for much grander solo than the one recorded... the soundcheck version has some really good and Noel's classic solos (Im not asking for an 18min version, just something more similar...)
