My favorite Gary Numan DVDs in the collection are the Volume 1 (1979) and Volume
II (1980).This is to be expected as during these years he was making his
breakthrough with tracks that became big hits like ‘Cars’ and ‘Are Friends
Electric’?. So it is no surprise that these tracks form the highlights of the Volume
1 DVD with many different versions of ‘Are Friends Electric?’ from Top of the
Pops (all excellent) and also ‘Cars’ from the same TV show. I also love the video for
‘Complex’ which forms part of the bonus material and is not often seen. I like this
song as it features some very talented violin playing.
The Volume II DVD (1980) is another standout disc with many highlights. One song I particularly liked is ‘Down in the Park’ and there are two great versions here. One of them is from the Teletour at Hammersmith Odeon in London and the other is for the Rage TV programme in Australia. Other great versions of songs on this disc are ‘This Wreckage’ from ‘Top of the Pops’ and ‘Praying to the Aliens’ and ‘Cars’ from Saturday Night Livein the USA. I have never seen the bonus footage on this disc before so although picture quality is not so good as the rest it is still very much worth having as the sound is fine and it is interesting hearing Gary Numans thoughts on the music business at the time.
One of the best things about watching this Gary Numan Video Archive 10 DVD Set for the long time fan is the way his music has changed over the years and how good these DVDs of “Video Archives” really are at showing this. One theme on a lot of the discs is Gary Numan’s love of flying and the fact that some of the videos incorporate some flying scenes. Similarly a lot of the interviews he gives from the early to mid 1980s are on the subject of flying and of him being a display pilot.This may not interest every fan but i personally find the flying theme interesting and seems to suit the music in the videos.
