It is a US re-release of ''Don't Let's Start'' which was only released in the UK and West Germany. The differences include cover art, track order, and the song "Hello Radio", which was not included on ''Don't Let's Start''. The album consists of all of the b-sides from the singles the band released between 1987 and 1989 (except Ana Ng), with the addition of the relatively new songs "The World's Address (Joshua Fried Remix)" – released beforehand only on ''Don't Let's Start'' – and "Hello Radio", which was previously released on a promotional sampler. All of the songs, with the exception of "(She Was A) Hotel Detective (Single Mix)", went on to be included in ''Then: The Earlier Years'', a compilation of the band's early material. ''Miscellaneous T'' is said to be named for the section in record stores where They Might Be Giants' albums were most often shelved in the band's early years.〔''Then: The Earlier Years'' liner notes.〕 ==Song notes== The tracks are all grouped together according to the singles they appeared on. These singles and the tracks from this album that appeared on the singles are as follows: :1–3: Purple Toupee (Unreleased) :5–7: They'll Need a Crane :9–14: (She Was A) Hotel Detective :15–18: Don't Let's Start The 13th track, which has no name listed on the album's track listing, is not actually a song, but a snippet of a recording inadvertently left on the Dial-A-Song answering machine, in which a confused listener named Gloria talks to an unknown third party about the mystery of "There May Be Giants" and "There Must Be Giants", as she mistakenly refers to the band. It would later be referenced when Bryant Gumbel referred to them as "They Must Be Giants" when they performed "Your Racist Friend" on the Today Show to promote the release of ''Flood''. "Lady Is a Tramp" is a cover of a song from the Rodgers and Hart musical ''Babes in Arms''. "The World's Address (Joshua Fried Remix)" appears to contain a sample of "Convoy" by C.W. McCall, but doesn't. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Miscellaneous T」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
