Here's the third, and final, volume of rare tracks from 80s pop group Voice Of The Beehive. Covering the rest of the bands recorded output including demos, live tracks and remixes, it serves as an excellent supplement to any Beehive collection. The first twelve tracks were previously released on the album 'Bee-sides', which was self-released by the band and sold exclusively via their website and at live shows in 2003, and is no longer available. Of these twelve tracks, the first four are never before heard songs that rank up their amongst the best the band ever recorded; it's a shame that the band disintegrated before ever being able to fully realize these. See below for a tracklisting at a glance, a video player where you can sample any of the tracks in question and below that more detailed notes about each one. For my post about the first volume, which covers the years 1987-1989 click here, and the second volume, covering the rest of the bands recordings 1991-1996, click here.
