Bauhaus to reissue 'Bela Lugosi's Dead' on Leaving Records

https://www.residentadvisor.net/news.aspx?id=42478

The nine-minute original version of "Bela Lugosi's Dead" will be pressed with three unreleased tracks from the 1979 session that launched the goth movement.

Bauhaus will reissue "Bela Lugosi's Dead" as part of The Bela Session on LA label Leaving Records. 

It marks the first time the nine-minute original studio recording of "Bela Lugosi's Dead" will be available digitally, as well as the classic track's first appearance on vinyl in 30 years. The band recorded the tune, which is considered the first goth record, six weeks after their formation on January 26th, 1979. The Bela Session includes five tracks in total, three of which are previously unreleased. (One of those, "Bite My Hip," was later reworked and released as "Lagartija Nick.") 

Shortly after recording "Bela Lugosi's Dead" the Northampton, England band would sign with 4AD, then that label's parent company Beggars Banquet, releasing three studio albums before disbanding in 1983. The Beggars/4AD records will also be reissued to mark the band's 40th anniversary. Leaving Records, known for releasing modern New Age recordings and experimental beats, will put out The Bela Session in partnership with Stones Throw.

Got New Orders Age of Consent with Blue Monday and a 12" demo of Blue Monday

Dj'd with some of the 2 Tone bands.and the Mod bands very late 70s early 80s but was very despondent about that whole scene as allot of the bands werem't anything at all like the image they portrayed and were just put together by record companys as marketing ploys. Had a fight with all the guys from Secret Affair off the head one night telliing them some home truths. Twats

Never liked Buster Bloodvessel. Thought he was just a prat. I like all the early Ska. All the early Blue Note, Island and Studio One label stuff. But have a very good memory of this that makes me smile.

The early Skins were OK. Before they brought the whole racial shit into it. They used to knock about with the Blacks back then. Loved each other united by the music and dress sense..

Heres a couple for Mz Vesper

White Power and outright Neo Nazi 'skins' are just bald racists, they can sod off.

Around when this came out this was a real big underground scene. There were 'tribes' (Groups of kids from all over that would go to big clubs/partys dressed in costume - Cavemen,Pirates,Clowns,Cybermen) and meet up at these Jazz Funk nights. Djs like me old mucka Colin Curtis,Ian Levine,Greg Edwards,,Chris Hill,Steve Walsh all brought their followers with them. Excellent times.

But right now Ive got his album on and just starting to gloss me skirting boards. What better time to do it at 3:30 stoned lol Laters peeps Love and Peace

I think its a appropriate tune in some many scenario's !

I had a year working there in 76/77 selling dope in Ricks Cafe/Hunters Bar and The Last Watering Hole and lived in and helped the girls in a brothel. And coming back to England most weeks to goto Wigan Casino then straight back to the Dam. Hellova life for a lad then! Never would I have missed it.

I'm sure I must have posted this already but its gotta be worth a double post Great guy. Saw him with Bowie do a acapella of Quicksand and Kiss From a Rose
