Forgive me if we already covered them here at the xchange. I only did a search on this forum and found nothing. I just recently bought a Love and Rockets greatest hits collection. Most probably remember the song "So alive" but they had many album rock and modern rock songs. All members were part of Bauhaus from 1979-1983, including Daniel Ash, Kevin Haskins and David J. Daniel Ash and David J had some solo material as well. My favorite song by them is their first single, a remake of The Temptations song "Ball of confusion". Other songs include "No new tale to tell", "All in my mind", "No big deal" and "Rock and Roll Babylon". The greatest hits collection is well worth the money.

Actually, I recognize "Ball Of Confusion" more than I do "So Alive".

Apparently, it was a big hit in '85 in Canada.

Gotta admit that I've never heard of them!

Prefab, you should take a listen. Kind of a goth feeling to their music. I'd take Ball of Confusion and No New Tale To Tell over So Alive.

I'll have to look into their greatest hits album. I have the 12" (LP)Single of "So Alive" & I LOVE IT!!
