RADIO HEART INFO
Released (only briefly) in 1987, this was an album by a friend of Gary Numan's called Hugh Nicholson. The song "Radio Heart" was a Top 40 hit, and saw Gary being played on the radio again for the first time in years - rightly so, with lots of advertising in Smash Hits and other mags, this was a classic radio-friendly pop song.
"London Times" & "All Across the Nation" (the ONLY other two songs on the album to feature Gary) are also great singles - the rest of the album is pants. In fact Gary hated the fact that the whole album was originally packaged to look as if he was on all of it so much, that it was withdrawn from stores almost immediately.
However, Hugh did collaborate with Gary again in 1994 for the SUPERB "Like A Refugee" single (featuring Da Da Dang) which should have been a number one. Buy the CD "Nicholson & Numan 1987-1994" (on the same record label) which collects just the 4 singles mentioned above (in all their different versions).
