452 Gary Numan - The Pleasure Principle

In September of 1979 Gary Numan released his debut solo album.

By the time Tubeway Army had released Replicas but before it hit #1 on the UK album charts, Numan had dropped the electric guitar all together, hired drummer Cedric Sharpley and keyboardist Chris Payne, and got started recording under his stage name.

Released just six months after Replicas, it would prove to be his second #1 UK album in the same year.
