Side B is the opposite of Side A, a.k.a on a record or cassette!

Partially correct. A "B" side is the flip side of a 45 rpm record. There were only 2 songs on 45 records. The "A" side was often the first hit of the LP 33 rpm album. The "B" side was another song off the same album. Sometimes the "B" side became bigger hits than the initial release (the "A" side). Or at least I think it was this "B" side sym was referring to.

I don't imagine Sweet released AC DC as a flip side single. I expect the record companies wouldn't allow that considering the lyrics.

My brother had the immigrant song 45. I taped the b-side and listened to it constantly my sophomore year of high school.

I'm not sure if I know another poster who revels in his own ignorance, let alone considers it as debt to be repaid. Your "rep", as far as I can tell, is that you're deadly dull.
