Record Collector Presents… Gary Numan

Inside, Record Collector speak to the man himself about his journey thus far, coping with Asperger’s and how his concerns around artificial intelligence have formed the focus of his upcoming album. Our other exclusive interviews include a chat with long-term band member Rrussell Bell, who remembers touring with Gary; Bill Sharpe on his hit collaboration; and right-hand man, producer Ade Fenton - an indispensable player in Numan’s recent resurgence. Also in this edition, we revisit the Numa record label roster, Gary’s many collaborations, speak to some of the contributors to 1997’s Random tribute album and offer up an excerpt from Nash The Slash’s book in which Numan waxes lyrical about his enigmatic touring partner.

Plus, there’s everything a collector could wish, be it our Top 100 commercial collectables, our rundown of the rarest of the rare holy grail items, worldwide cassettes and posters, as well as collector profiles and the usual comprehensive selected UK discography.

Gary Numan at Glastonbury - Yes, and what a debut it was! On Saturday, June 28, 2025, Gary Numan finally took to the Park Stage at Glastonbury, delivering a set that was both sonically ferocious and emotionally charged.

He opened with Halo and powered through a setlist that spanned decades—from early synth-pop anthems like Cars and Are ‘Friends’ Electric? to darker, more recent tracks like Haunted and The Chosen. The performance was visually striking too, with crucifix imagery, and a band styled like a post-apocalyptic cult.

Adding a personal touch, Numan brought his daughters Raven and Persia onstage, Raven joined her father to perform one of her upcoming songs, “Nothing’s What It Seems” she also shared a clip of the performance in a recent Instagram post. In the caption, she wrote, “No big deal but I just played a song (I wrote 3 years ago) at Glastonbury. Thank you so much for such an incredible opportunity ❤️‍ currently the happiest person on the planet, I love you dad :)” Raven started her music career in 2024 and has since officially released six songs that follow in the same realm of her dad. He was then joined by his other daughter, Persia who performed “My Name Is Ruin” from his 2017 album, Savage (Songs From a Broken World). Persia was featured in the original music video for “My Name Is Ruin” and even contributed to some of the vocals. Gary was clearly moved by the crowd’s warm reception to he's daughters. And yes, in a perfect twist of fate, he performed Down in the Park on The Park stage.

It was a long-awaited moment for Numanoids, he didn’t just meet expectations he exceled them. lets hope the lovely Glastonbury people invite him back.
