Thanks to whoever started this thread for re-aquainting me w/ Klaatu... I got their first three albums and they are much, much better than I remembered. 

I guess that whole "Are they the Beatles" thing left a bad taste in my mouth back in the day... I remember thinking it sounded "like" the Beatles... but I never thought it sounded like the Beatles made that music. Two very different things... Also most people I know who like Klaatu are prog-heads who are always trying to get me to listen to Van de Graaf Generator or Magellan (shudder.)

Anyway, thanks for the nudge.
