Ghosts

March 1982 (CD 1988)

7" and 12" versions:
A: Ghosts 3.55
B: The Art Of Parties (version) 5.18
CD single:
1: Ghosts 3.55
2: The Art Of Parties (version) 5.18
3: Visions Of China 3.35

This single is a definite must for collectors as both sides are different to the album versions. The b-side in question is a live version of "The Art Of Parties" recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon during the 1981 winter tour. The CD single has "Visions Of China" as a bonus track. Chart position: 5.
