A vote for best 12" from the early '80s: Bauhaus, "Ziggy Stardust"/"Third Uncle".

@Dean: You just reminded me I had the EP with Ziggy on it. (And the Bela Legosi 12".)

Love it, Joe. Soca party! First encountered soca on WLIB in New York during the '80s -- only thing my AM car radio would pick up, but time well spent.

@HC: I need to buy more soca! It makes me so happy!

Dean:

Oh, yes, "Bela Lugosi's Dead" is quite the charmer, too. I never got deep into Bauhaus, saw them live once at the Roxy in Hollywood, but I really love those two EPs.

@Dean...Bauhaus "Telegram Sam" 12" pretty good too.

True, @tadpoles, true.

Devo (actually just Mark and Jerry) are responsible only for the "GOOD GOD". They still showed up on Solid God to mime the song.
