There will be no Telekon Redux Glamour, there never will be, there is not enough material, there was basically no demo's, everything was recorded with the intention to end up on the album, and not as demo source. Gary was a mega star by then, with touring etc he had no time for demo work, he went straight into the studio and recorded Telekon. Sorry but thats it I'm afraid.

Well that's three people that have told glam about it now, but I think he's made his mind up that it is coming out still. Have to admit I am hoping it's that way too.  |

Yeah we all were but there is not any, I asked one of the best sources available who played on the album sometime ago, and his answer was basically what I have said and Steve has said, everything that was recorded ended up on the album..sorry maryann. |

Well if you read everything in this thread and the things I said in the thread that newvox linked to this one, you will know that newvox is one of the best sources also and has been telling the same to all the numan forums for over six years.  Thanks anyway rpb but that still will make no dfiiference to people like me and glam. Sorry but thats it I'm afraid. In the earlier linked thread, Steve made it sound like there might have been something available, especially with his winky, I think that's why the thread went on for several pages. LOL Newvox has some info about tracks and even possible titles, but as always with him he won't talk about it unless it comes out. I have faith in Gary, Rrussel and Beggars if they can do it they will still...look at all the stuff that has been coming out these years |

I only start this Post only because for asking why Telekon didn't had any Redux/Deluxe/ or whatever you wish to call.
I don't know the facts. I just search for answers fo my question, because Telekon is an album that deserve something like Replicas and TPP had.
If their isn't enough material (if their are, i don't know) is not a reason to don't create a Reduxe edition. Their are some bands who made reeditions only with a few extras. I hope someday for a reduxe for the Telekon. ;D

I'm sure I 've read on one of the threads / posts on this Forum that Ced (RIP ) told Steve during one of their conversations for the Backstage book that he had some tapes in the Loft with Demos / out takes on .From what Album / s they are I have no idea but I'm sure I read it that he mentioned that the other Band members from those days would have had tapes as well.
These things always seem to pop up , just look at that TPP Demo cassette that guy on some other Numan forum site ( can't remember the name ) had in his collection ? From what I 've heard it had different takes on tracks from those released by Beggars on the Re - dux series so who knows whats kicking around.
We'll wait with baited breath !

Yes its seven years later, but just a quick message to let you guy's know, we now have recovered enough tracks for a 'Telekon Redux' style release. (That's not to say there will be one, its only forty years. lol) In fact we've had them a while now.
As said previously in this thread, the material was few and far between compared to the 'Replicas' / 'The Pleasure Principle' redux and now subsequent 'Replicas' / 'The Pleasure Principle' early recordings releases.
There may be less material for 'Telekon', however what makes this interesting is that most of these tracks have still never been heard so far.....
.....
[EDIT]
Off topic: It's sad to see Steve's place and the other three main Numan forums in this decline, but I don't go on the forums myself either for person reasons. Still sad to see so little activity though.
Hope everyone's fine, especially in these strange times.
Regards,newvox
