But Murphy wasn’t interested, the remaining three sensed they could work together handily still - they had already done that while recording Bauhaus’s Burning From The Inside when Murphy was sidelined by illness - and with a name borrowed from the already landmark US comic book series by Los Bros Hernandez, via J’s friend and music associate Alan Moore, Love And Rockets was born. So when the three Bauhaus vets wondered about a possible restart with singer Peter Murphy, himself having briefly done the Dalis Car collaboration with Japan’s Mick Karn and still considering his own route forward, that could have been it. Meantime bassist David J had his own solo career going over two albums and a slew of singles, as well as a stint playing and recording with the Jazz Butcher.

Guitarist Daniel Ash had already been releasing work under the Tones On Tail name and made it a full band with drummer Kevin Haskins as well as Bauhaus roadie Glenn Campling. It was two years after the initial collapse of Bauhaus, after the Northampton band had gone from punk-inspired art-glam obscurity to inadvertant founders of goth rock to a final put-it-all-to-bed set of shows. Original released on 1985’s Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven - “Haunted” s definitely, one of my favorites and one of the most memorable songs in the whole Love & Rockets canon.Love and Rockets shouldn’t’ve existed, if everything had gone to vaguely initial plan. Thank You Love & Rockets for healing me with such a killer song. “Haunted” is a song that’s equally powerfully seductive. It’s one of the few songs that you can play while furious, depressed and euphoric. “Haunted” was my theme song circa 2004 and is the ultimate Manic Depressive’s anthem. Music like Love & Rockets soothed my inner savage beast of fright.

I recall singing those Ash’s and David J lyrics in my car, magically making my anxieties go away. David’s is the first half and then Ash’s is the second more sinister part. Did you know that “Haunted” is a medley of TWO songs, one by David J and the other by fellow Love and Rockets band mate-Daniel Ash. Especially Love and Rockets “Haunted When The Minutes Drag.” “Haunted” is seriously one of my top Fifty songs of all time. The only thing that would make the demons and anxiety attacks go away would be the music. That feeling, even while driving was “♫ Haunted.

Remember that demon from the first Twilight Zone movie from the 1980’s-it was the section of the film when John Lithgow claims to see a creature on the wing of the plane? The monster on the plane, that’s what my anxiety demon looked like. I remember having these anxiety attacks on the drive home at night. I ran to Europe, I had a breakdown in Paris at my Uncle’s apartment in Paris, France. The shell shock anxiety I felt soon became a full-fledged case of Post Dramatic Stress Disorder.

“♫ Haunted ♫” was the feeling that cursed me. “♫ Haunted ♫” I was afraid to go outside and paranoid that someone was going to break into my second floor balcony apartment. That’s the word, how it felt, seeing that silver gun over and over again in my head. “♫ Haunted ♫” - that was the emotion I felt hovering over me- happened the one night in 2004 I was held up by my house in the Garden District in New Orleans that one crime haunted me for over a year.
