Original OZ LP released in 1976 on Capitol Records. Cat: ST11542.
Once all of the hype about Klaatu being the Beatles is disregarded, 3:47 EST (aka Klaatu) surfaces as an entertaining debut album made up of light, harmonic pop songs which harbor a little bit of a progressive rock feel in a few spots. Because the album revealed no information about the band whatsoever, this fueled accusations by newspaper reporter Steve Smith that the band was actually the Beatles' pseudo group, and there's no denying that the similarities are bewildering. But Klaatu was actually three studio musicians from Toronto, fronted by drummer and singer Terry Draper.
Tracks: Calling occupants of interplanetary craft/ California jam/ Anus or Uranus/ Sub-rosa subway/ True life hero/ Doctor Marvello/ Sir Bodsworth Rubblesby III/ Little Neutrino.
