Jess Lidyard

Gerald 'Jess' Lidyard (born 1950) is the former drummer of Tubeway Army. He is the lead singer Gary Numan's uncle, and played on the band's self-titled debut album and on the highly successful Replicas, which featured the hit "Are 'Friends' Electric?". He was the long-time drummer of the Windsor band Brock and the Badgers.[1]

When Numan became highly popular in 1979, Lidyard turned down the chance to continue playing with him. However, he appeared on the song "Moral" on Numan's 1981 album, Dance and the song "The Need" on the 1986 album, Strange Charm.
