Nov 18, 2008 - Is that Billy Currie from Ultravox on on of the Keyboards? One of the best keyboardists ever in my opinion...

Nov 18, 2008 - Electronica at its very best. THE seminal track of my youth, my all time favourite song til the day i die. Thank you Gary.
PumaSweat Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - I love this stuff! I hate how everyone I know hates electronic music because all they know is the trendy 90's electronica. I love me some old skool Kraftwerk as well. Devo is off the chain and don't sleep on modern stuffOrbital.

RidetheRadian Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - The reasons Gary is so inspiring to me is because of his intellect, his ability, his ear, and his commitment to quality. How many people can make a love song about electronics with hooks, haunting melody and the where-with-all to withstand the test of time? It's a shame that more people don't know who he is. Though there is electronic music with plenty of heart, he is one of the originators embodying the movement and feeling you can put into it.

Nov 18, 2008 - I love this tune! Bought this album back in 1979. This song came out on the album before his song Cars. Good stuff!

Nov 18, 2008 - "Just my steel friend and me,I stand brave by his side. . ." ---The first song I ever performed for a gig. Gary Newman-- Tubeway Army, "Steel and You."
bondbug73 Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - I've got two Polymoogs myself for that original 'Car's' sound. They weigh a ton aswell.
