From Anti-Music.com (2 lame bonus tracks from 2009-they could have at least used vintage live tracks):

Shout! Factory will be reissuing two seminal albums originally released on Capitol Records, Concrete Blonde's Bloodletting, and Billy Squier's Don't Say No. Both albums have been remastered and include rare and unreleased bonus tracks. Bloodletting will be released July 13, and Don't Say No will be released July 27.

Massachusetts-born Billy Squier had interest in music from an early age, going on to attend the Berklee College of Music and playing in the group Kicks with Jerry Nolan of the New York Dolls, The Sidewinders, and the band Piper, which opened for KISS at Madison Square Garden, and got him his first recording contract. His solo debut, 1980's "The Tale of the Tape" was released in 1980 and didn't spawn any hits, however the track "The Big Beat," has been sampled over the years in hip hop songs.

Don't Say No, Billy Squier's landmark 1981 album, gave us the mega-hits "The Stroke," "My Kinda Lover," and "In the Dark." Arguably his best album, Don't Say No reached #5 on Billboard's album chart. Produced by Reinhold Mack (Queen), the album went on to sell over 3 million copies in the U.S. alone. Squier was the personification of '80s rock, with an array of arena rock anthems and power ballads. His combination of rock and pop proved to be a huge success and was able to reach an even wider audience thanks to heavy rotation on brand new MTV. Squier now lives in New York, and continues to tour and release new music. This long-overdue reissue features 2 bonus tracks, live version of hit songs "The Stroke" and "My Kinda Lover," recorded during a 2009 tour. - more on this story

I'll stick with my BGO CD if those are the "bonus" tracks.

There were B-sides that Shout Factory could have put on here. Right?

Yeah - I was excited about this until I saw the bonus tracks. Vintage live tracks, maybe, but not these.
