Miscellaneous T is a 1991 (see 1991 in music) b-side and remix compilation album by the alternative rock band They Might Be Giants. It is more-or-less a re-release of Don't Let's Start which was only released in the UK and West Germany. The differences include cover art, track order, and the song "Hello Radio", which was not on Don't Let's Start. Most of the tracks on here originate as b-sides from various EPs released such as Don't Let's Start (different than the above mentioned album) and (She Was A) Hotel Detective

Miscellaneous T was named for the section in record stores where They Might Be Giants' albums were most often shelved in the band's early years.

All of the songs, with the exception of "(She Was A) Hotel Detective (Single Mix)", are included in Then: The Earlier Years, a compilation of the band's early material. Interestingly, Then also includes They Might Be Giants, and for some reason includes "Don't Let's Start (Single Mix)" in place of the album version with the rest of the tracks from They Might Be Giants.

• "untitled" is not actually a song, but a snippet of a recording inadvertently left on the Dial-A-Song answering machine, in which a confused listener named Gloria talks to an unknown third party about the mystery of "There May Be Giants", as she mistakenly refers to the band.
• "The Lady is a Tramp" is a cover of a song from the Rodgers and Hart musical Babes in Arms.
