Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison all died at the age of 27 between 1969 and 1971. At the time, the coincidence gave rise to some comment, but it was not until the death of Kurt Cobain, about two and a half decades later, that the idea of a "27 Club" began to catch on in public perception, reignited with the death of Amy Winehouse in 2011. Through interviews with people who knew them, such as music stars, critics, medical experts and unseen footage, the lives, music, and artistry of those who died at 27 are investigated with a bid to find answers.
A documentary on the production of series three of The Mighty Boosh.
Nash The Slash was deliciously surreal, verging on demented. A mummy wrapped in surgical bandages, an invisible man in full formal white tuxedo and top hat buzz-sawing his violin through endless reams of electronics, melodies and distortion. His music and image were demanding. His life was rock fantasy. ‘NASH THE SLASH RISES AGAIN!’ uncovers the sinister Canadian electronic music innovator. A classically trained violinist and multi-instrumentalist, he created music that was an unlikely combination of prog-rock, punk-rock, classic-rock, psychedelic fused with techno and industrial before they had names. The end result is an unearthly life drenched in film history, enveloped in a wall of sound that would do Phil Spector justice. A career embodied in artistic integrity, courage and the price-tag that comes with it. ‘NASH THE SLASH RISES AGAIN!’ unwinds the bandages of a ground-breaking, mad musical scientist whose career decomposed before the world caught up.

THE 1993 UK TOUR. HAMMERSMITH APOLLO, LONDON. Numan's effect on his audience is almost mystical. His songs open doors into a mind and into a heart that doesn't quite think like you or I. To know the real Gary Numan is virtually impossible, but this is about as close as most people will ever get. Without doubt Numan's shows are amongst the most spectacular and visually stunning in the world. The Dream Corrosion tour featured a remarkable set that lasted for well over two hours. He played 27 songs, from That's Too Bad, his first vinyl release, to Machine And Soul, his very latest. Numan has more energy than a nuclear explosion, more attitude than is healthy, but if you like your heroes to be different, to be larger than life, this is the man for you. Joined by some of the best musicians in the business, Dream Corrosion is a tour de force of all that is special about live music. Pop, Rock, call it what you will, the show sets a standard that others will find hard to equal.

Recorded at the HMV Ritz, Manchester in December 2011, this DVD captures the power, intensity and experimental textures of Gary Numan's recent critically-acclaimed Dead Son Rising album. The stage is often blitzed with light - strobes being used like weapons for the set's biggest anthems. At other times, everything fades, almost to blackout, with the viewer sucked into the darkness for a few moments before the heavy light-assault explodes into life again. Then cut to the images on the screen as each track is illustrated with slogans, graphics and burnt-out, degraded films. Dead Son Rising was a very special tour and Big Noise Transmission is a fantastic document of one of the artist's finest shows.
On 15 April 2023, Gary Numan marked a monumental milestone in a lengthy career with his 1,000th live performance, at the Electric Ballroom in London’s Camden Town. The show, the last of three sold-out gigs at the iconic venue, was a testament to Numan's enduring influence and the unwavering devotion of his fans. The 1,000th show was more than just a concert; it was a celebration of Gary Numan's remarkable career and his profound impact on electronic and industrial music. With a career spanning multiple decades, Numan continues to push boundaries and inspire generations of musicians. As the final notes of "Are 'Friends' Electric?" faded into the night, it was clear that Gary Numan's unique sonic language will continue to evolve and captivate for years to come.
First shown on TV in 2011, this film is the fascinating story of British Rock Star Gary Numan. From his early meteoric success through mid career crisis and near catastrophe to his renaissance and subsequent evolution into industrial overload. Includes contributions from Trent Reznor, Phil Oakey, Little Boots, Andy McCluskey, Noel Fielding & Martin Mills. This is the story of Reinvention. This DVD edition includes over 45 minutes of extra previously unseen footage. The 45 minutes extra are a mixture of new interviews with Gary and extended footage from sections on the original (longer versions of guest interviews for example), plus scenes that didn't appear on the original at all.
When the Live At The Forum CD and vinyl packages were released in 2016 to celebrate the three classic Numan albums, Replicas, The Pleasure Principle and Telekon, there was one obvious thing missing. A film of the show itself. So, when Gary toured those albums around the UK again last year we fixed that mistake and filmed the Liverpool Olympia show on September 16th. Gary remembers the show this way: “When it comes to playing in front of a great crowd who are with you on every beat of every song, this show would be right up there with the best. The crowd were amazing, just an incredible atmosphere for the whole night. But, as a band, I gave up counting how many mistakes we made. I think we gave up accuracy for the sheer joy of running around and having fun. It really was fun though.
This was probably a pretty bad idea: In 1981, at the absolute height of his U.K. superstardom, Gary Numan announced his retirement from live performance. His intended last hurrah, at Wembley Arena, sold out so quickly that two more shows had to be added to accommodate the fans who wished to see him one last time.
The skeleton of a rat-monkey comes to life in a room full of cursed objects in this Gothic tale with a sci-fi twist. This is the 5th film in the award winning 'Chimerascope' series by MTV and SY FY channel station ID veteran, Aurelio Voltaire. Narrated by electro-Goth, New Wave icon, Gary Numan.
