[kj] FOF

[Alexander Smith]

I think I've played GO AWAY WHITE maybe three times? I forget which  
track it is, but at one point, you can hear Murphy murmuring into the  
mic "this would be a good place for a guitar solo," and hearing Daniel  
Ash in the background angrily saying, "this IS a guitar solo." Writing  
was on the wall, I suppose.

Crap album or not, I'll always love Bauhaus. Sure, Murphy dressed like  
a macabre Peter Pan a lot of the time, but there's simply no arguing  
with those records.
