Gary Numan - Remind Me To Smile (US 7'' Version)

Still as far as I know not available on CD, so here hopefully for your enjoyment is the US 7'' version of 'Remind Me To Smile' taken from the album Telekon. It's a shame that when Telekon was re-issued on vinyl a couple of years ago that this version was wasn't included on it.

Thanks for posting that. Was disappointed that the most recent vinyl reissue of Telekon from 2015 https://www.discogs.com/Gary-Numan-Telekon/release/7658834 contains a ‘USA Mix’ but it’s not this original US 7” mix.

Thank you very much for the rip - of the best songs of early Numan to me! Always found it incomprehensible they went for absolutely non-commercial "I die, you die" in the US. A fine example how to kill the momentum stone dead. This one may have stood a better chance by far.
