Back in the day, we played Gary Numan + Tubeway Army’s<\/strong> records to death, and especially Replicas<\/strong> (which is to this day one of our all-time faves) before he released his smash hit album The Pleasure Principle<\/strong> (with mega-hit song, Cars<\/strong><\/em>).\u00a0\u00a0 With his synthesizers and effects, Numan was one of the true pioneers of modern electronic music.\u00a0 We’ll pass on his religious and political views, but give him his musical due.<\/p>\n
