Gary Numan – A People’s History is the story of one of the true pioneers of electronic music as told by over 500 fans. With three No 1 UK albums and the chart-topping singles ‘Are ‘Friends’ Electric?’ (with Tubeway Army) and ‘Cars’ (as a solo artist), Gary Numan was one of the biggest pop stars of the early 1980s, bringing the sound of synthesisers to the fore, and is rightly celebrated as a music legend, with a legion of devoted fans. Fully authorised by Gary, this 498-page book charts his career from its very beginnings through to the present day with stories from fans, friends and colleagues. Packed with memories and over 250 photographs, and with a foreword by Andy McCluskey of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, this is a book that no Numanoid will want to be without.
Richard Bowes is a freelance music writer who writes for Clash, Louder Than War and Live4Ever.
