File this under “obvious” as we go into Hallowe’en weekend with this contribution from Siouxsie & The Banshees. Despite being a standout track on 1981’s Juju – an album full of them – “Halloween” wasn’t a single and as such, there’s no official video to share. Instead, we’ve got audio from the original album:

As well as from their 2009 At The BBC compilation; this came from their fourth John Peel session, recorded on October 2, 1981:

And there is video content – this performance from Warwickshire, England in March 1981 was recorded for the BBC series Rock Goes To College and appeared on the DVD included with the aforementioned At The BBC set.
