What is a B-side?

It's from the vinyl era.
When you release a single, you put the main song on side a and something else on side be.
Madonna usually put album tracks or instrumental versions on her b-sides, but Prince usually put songs that were outtakes from albums and unavailable on the albums. That way, fans would buy the singles too, and Prince would sell more records.
