Magic

For this episode, I take a look back at the moment when Gary Numan turned a corner. In 1994, he took partner Gemma's advice and made the music he actually wanted to make again, without outsider influence.The album was Sacrifice, and it was the moment that Gary started his long road to recovery.Focusing mainly on the Lord of the Rings-inspired track 'Magic', this episode looks at the making of Sacrifice, what came before, and its enduring legacy.Clips used:Gary Numan - 'Magic'Gary Numan - 'Pray'Gary Numan - 'Deadliner'Gary Numan - 'Scar'Gary Numan - 'You Walk in My Soul'Gary Numan - 'Metal Beat'Gary Numan - 'Magic' (Dark Light, live)Gary Numan - (R)Evolution (audiobook)Nine Inch Nails - 'Heresy'Howard Shore - 'The Breaking of the Fellowship/In Dreams'
