Bauhaus - Sevens (1983)

The second of my Bauhaus posts consists of their stand-alone 7" singles and b-sides from 1979 to 1983, plus a few choice out-takes.They apparently recorded quite a few tracks while in the studio to lay down the classic 'Bela Lugosi's Dead', and the ones which weren't released at the time have finally surfaced some forty years later, so I've included a couple of them here. I've omitted the original recording of 'Boys' as a version of that was on the previous post, and if I'm honest 'Some Faces' isn't really that great, but it's worth at least one hearing, as is the distinctly odd 'Dave And Danny's Waspie Dub #2' which closes the album.
