  • OMFG!!!

    01:57 onwards....Billie Currie's synths - PURE FUCKING GENIUS!

    30 Years on and this LIVE track is still absolutely sensational....

    As for Numan himself...FFS he was merely a 21 year old lad in 1979 when he staged this tour. RESPECT - BIG TIME!!

    10* and Faved ;))x

  • BILLY CURRIE era extraordinario

  • did he do this having been inspired by the ending of Aladdin Sane? Just trying to work out why he chose this cover. He is clearly strongly influenced by David Bowie.

  • loved it

  • The sad thing is that not once do we actually see Currie performing his masterpiece close up! Anyway, total genius. Saw the man just the other week in Zurich with the 'Vox...nearly grabbed his drumstick at the end, but it went to my friend!

  • I haven't heard this track for over 20 years. Found it by chance and just died and went to heaven :)))))

  • it al billy now finally his  playing show today so ..cool..

  • Sadly, he didn't :((

  • Billie Currie...the man who makes Synthesizers speak !!! FANFUCKINTASTIC...............­....

  • his mimic from 2.52 on...

    still fantastic after all those years...

    i do look such foreward to buy this on the forthcoming tpp dvd (without(!) these bothersome visual video effects of course..they annoy me since 79 :-)

    +...shame that it will be probably only the 45min. version...such a fantastic show!!!!

    (still in my memories from munich '80 in march...i was 14...;-))

    why cant they do the whole show on it...???

    many thanks indeed for postin' this clip

    cheers

  • benson was the origenal, broadway, yet gary does it 4 me. im 46yrs old, at at the young year of 15 my 1st tatoo was numan, yet b4 numan was tube way army. Every album of theres n gary numans i possess, ive met him n i carn,t express how much he sends me, im a true fan xxxx

  • I disagree about the vocals. The music sounded like something from a sci-fi movie and Numan's voice fit perfectly...as well as his look. I can't think of any artist who matched sound and image so accurately than Gary Numan did from 1979 to 1981.
