Episode 52- GARY NUMAN Lived Through That

    • Music Interviews

We're back with a new season and we’re kicking off with a story from the legendary Gary Numan. He’s a pioneer in electronic music producing such early hits as “Are Friends Electric?” and “Cars” and is an inspiration to artists as varied as Nine Inch Nails, Damon Albarn from Blur, and the Foo Fighters. After a series of shows at Wembly in 1981, Numan decided to “retire” for a spell. Music got in the way of Numan’s other love, flying planes and, in 1982 he decided to take his plane and circumnavigate the globe. Today, Gary tells us about the highs and lows of that experience. It’s quite a tale so buckle your seat belts and strap in for the ride!
