Telekon (45th Anniversary Expanded Edition)

Gary Numan's second studio album 'Telekon' was released in 1980 and was his third successive #1 album in the UK. Gary refers to this album, along with its two predecessors, Tubeway Army's 'Replicas' and his debut solo album 'The Pleasure Principle', as the 'machine' phase of his career. While it was hard to follow up the previous releases, 'Telekon' proved to be hugely influential. Unlike its predecessors, 'Telekon' had plenty of guitars, along with strings and lush synthesizer textures. Trent Reznor claimed to have listened to it every day during the making of 'Pretty Hate Machine'. Earlier this year, a visit to Gary's archive allowed for a deep dig, and amongst all the treasures, unreleased 'Telekon' material was found. We are thrilled to include four unreleased tracks on this expanded edition of 'Telekon'. 'Like A B-Film' is a completely unreleased, not quite finished track from the album's sessions. The other three tracks are previously unreleased early versions of 'Please Push No More', 'Aircrash Bureau' and 'I'm An Agent'.
