It's probably a terrible thing to admit, but every time I turn on Close to the Edge I put on side 2. As great as the title track is, I think both And You And I and Siberian Khatru beats the crap out of it. I have to be in the right mood for side 1, which happens maybe once a year, whereas I'm always in the mood for side 2.
Kate Bush - "Hounds of Love" I almost never play Side 1
Capability Brown - "Voices" "There's a Side 1?"
Abacab.
Side 1 is a great reinvention of their sound- a perfect record side. Side 2 sounds like filler...almost never seem to need to play it. I don't even include it on portable digital media.

Zappa: Roxy & Elsewhere, the 2 sides that starts with Sun Village and Cheepnis - I almost never listen to the other two.
I recently acquired this one and needless to say I only play side b. Drowning witch is incredible (I am also very familiar with the first two tracks of side A although I don't remember from where, maybe they're bonus tracks on some of my zappa cds - so there's not much interest there in any case)
