Gary Numan, is I believe one of the most misunderstood and most overlooked musicians of our time. Now in his 50′s Numan is an accomplished live performer and has a back catalogue containing some outstanding, moving, unique songs.
When Numan first appeared on the music scene he encountered all kinds of criticism. It became a cliched to :slag Numan off” after a few years and he became unfashionable. Many people forget however that Numan had written three outstanding albums, 2 of which hit the No 1 spot in the UK album charts. Not to mention 2 number one singles and all in the same year, when he was only 21 years old.
Much of the criticism has been grossly unfair and possibly made by those who only heard singles and not album tracks which is where Numan shows his true talent.
The top painting is a homage to Gary Numan around 1979 and the second Numan painting is of the man in more recent years although it was painted five years before the top painting.
