The Legendary Bobby Wellins
Bauhaus are honoured and somewhat awed by the joining of their first major endorsee – Bobby Wellins – who has been impressing critics and inspiring players for over 50 years: “His influence and importance to several generations of British jazz musicians and improvisers is obvious just by checking out how many of them mention him as either an influence, collaborator, teacher — or all three.” Eugene Chadbourne, All Music Guide
