Although the B Stiff EP has never had a proper CD release, five of its six tracks have been re-released on various compilation albums in the digital format:
- "Jocko Homo" – Pioneers Who Got Scalped: The Anthology
- "(I Can't Get Me No) Satisfaction" – Greatest Misses, Hardcore Devo: Volume One
- "Be Stiff" – Greatest Misses, Pioneers Who Got Scalped: The Anthology
- "Mongoloid" – Pioneers Who Got Scalped: The Anthology (A slightly different mix appeared on Hardcore Devo: Volume One.)
- "Sloppy (I Saw My Baby Getting)" – Recombo DNA (The extra few seconds of drum noise and shouting before the song starts have been removed from this version.)
A re-recording of "Social Fools" produced by Brian Eno appeared as the B-side of the "Come Back Jonee" single in 1978. It was later reissued as a bonus track on the Virgin CD release of Q: Are We Not Men A: We Are Devo!/Dev-O Live EP in 1993 and was subsequently reissued again on Social Fools (The Virgin Singles 1978-1982) in 2015 and Turn Around: B-Sides & More (1978-1984) in 2019.
