This tour featured spectacular stage and dramatic light effects and is augmented here with a variety of video generated images which supplement the themes of his music.

Recorded at London's Hammersmith Odeon on 28 September 1979. This concert was originally released as the first ever music video-cassette and that original film, featuring the 'special effects' of the time, has been included in this DVD as a bonus feature along with an exclusive Numan interview about the 1979 tour. However, the main feature on this DVD is taken from the original master before any 'effects' were added. Digitally remastered along with the audio, this represents the definitive document of Gary Numan's visionary show.
