    I am fortunate to own the original "Blue" Tubeway Army Album. it opens like a double sleeve album with all they lyrics on display inside but only contains one record. Recorded in August1978 (!) At Spaceward Studios. Beggars Banquet reference 660.048

    The first album I bought was "Replicas" on vinyl from WHSmith's in Sevenoaks in Kent. I can clearly remember (despite having had 5 strokes) the Thursday evening I saw Tubeway Army on TOTP at age 10 and the MASSIVE impact Gary Numan had on me. It really was the best of times to be alive during that period in the 70s, one that had a huge influence on me to the point I nagged my parents enough for them to buy me a Casio MT86 keyboard just to shut me up. A mate at secondary school had an SH-101 and one of the early Korgs and he thought we could be the next Tangerine Dream but secretly I hoped to be the next Tubeway Army. I gave up playing keys and synths in the later 80s and took up heavy metal and rock guitar instead, a decision I regret but these days I still have a MIDI master keyboard and a tonne of classic VST synths that I play along to Replicas and The Pleasure Principle regularly to try and re-live those amazing times.

    Fabulous video! This album has run through my veins since I first scrounged enough pocket money to buy it back in ‘80. Wonderful to see all these amazing tracks broken down. Brilliant guitar playing… and great to see the shout-out to Paul Gardener. Numan’s early stuff simply wouldn’t have had that same punch without him.

    An informative and fascinatingly different analysis of one of the first LPs I bought, back in 1979. Your solo guitar versions bring out aspects of the compositions that aren't obvious. I've not seen any other appreciation of Numan by a guitarist, so this was unusual and refreshing. That the hookline in Me! I Disconnect is on the D blues scale never occurred to me, but it's obvious now. As Numan has admitted many times, he had no musical training and just made it up as he went along, so it's interesting that he came up with such a different approach to songwriting, rather than the more chordal approach by his predecessors. Apparently the tritone in Are 'Friends' was a flubbed note on the Moog synth (probably going for an A) that sounded good, and ended up being one of the most distinctive riffs in popular music history. Thank you!

      Cedric Sharpley (RIP) the band's long term drummer cannot be overstated either in my humble opinion. What a metronomic and powerful addition to Paul Gardner's bass. Cedric's efforts for the track "Films" [The Pleasure Principle] went on to be one of the most sampled pieces of music ever, forming endless hip hop break beats.

    • @TheWillHadcroft
      @TheWillHadcroft 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I was thinking exactly the same as I listened to Chanan explaining and demonstrating! He attributes Gary with a knowledge of music theory and practice that, by Gary's own admission, he didn't really have at that time. Gardener *may* have understood the mechanics more, but Numan was going by what it sounded like. That said, I love the album. Chanan is wonderfully respectful and gentle in his dissecting here.

    “I nearly married a human” is my favorite instrumental song of all time. I don’t have the record anymore and I bought the CD but now it’s on my playlist and that’s how I came across your video.

    I'm a few years older than you Chanan but I was enjoying a lot of the same music at that time. I would be sat in my small bedroom with my cheap Hondo Les Paul copy trying to play along with all these amazing tunes off the radio (which we had taped from the top 40 on a Sunday). I was into The Buggles, Adam and the Ants, The Specials, Gary Numan, XTC and Devo. Improved my ear for learning tunes no end. Then I discovered Zappa and the work started :)

    • @farbror77
      @farbror77 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Speaking of XTC: I’ve been trying for forty years to understand their sometimes impossible chords over more straight pop harmonies (e.g. This is Pop, Sgt Rock, Seagulls screaming). What the hell is going on there, Chanan? (Edit: Of course you had already made that video, I discovered three minutes after writing this comment. Haha! Genius!)

    Don't know about anybody else but other than the brilliant title track, I could never get into side two of this album!!
    Side one was absolutely mind blowing to me, all five tracks still hold up today, but the second side, not so much!!
    For a 13 year old as I was in 1979, the second side seemed a bit too unsure and experimental whereas the first side was certain and completely on the money!!
    I've been a massive Gary Numan fan since 1979,
    I've stuck by him through thick and thin, (Machine + Soul) I've seen him live over 50 times, one of which was one of the Wembley 1981 shows!!
    I became a synth / keyboard player because of his music and didn't do too bad at it, was able to pay the bills doing it for a number of years!!
    For me, his best album will always be Telekon, followed by Tubeway Army, The Pleasure Principle and Jagged!!
    Replicas would probably come after them!!
    The Aircrash Bureau is my all time favourite Numan song, the piano break!! WOW!!
    Great video though, maybe you should do your own bluesy Strat funk version of the album as nobody has ever put a different spin on Gary's classic tunes!!

    • @ouethojlkjn
      @ouethojlkjn 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I still have the ticket from 1981 Wembley - the princely sum of £5!!! Telekon is my favourite and "I dream of Wires" slightly edges out the similar "Aircrash Bureau" for me. I also bought "Machine & soul". Just to stand up and be counted as it was a low point. More recently, I loved Exile (and Exile Extended even more).

    Similarity to you, Chanan…I bought this album (and single) in Reading town, likely WH smiths (or Knights/Arcadia) with my Dad in Summer holidays 1979, I was aged 10 and I loved it (and GN/TA’s other early albums) then and still do today! Great sounding albums too, very crisp and full. Interesting also to hear you interpreting it all on a Strat- lovely playing! You’re also right about the late Paul Gardiner’s subtle and neat contributions on bass.

      @ChananHanspal  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's a good point, but nevertheless there is a proclivity for keeping things simple. For example, on Replicas, along with the Minimoog both the guitar and Fender Rhodes piano (polyphonic instruments) were used to play mostly single note riffs. Also, by the time we get to "The Pleasure Principle", Numan was using the Polymoog extensively and yet he still uses the instrument for composing single note riffs.
