[PAR] [TLE] 3:47 EST [SEP] 3:47 EST is the first album by the Canadian progressive rock group Klaatu, released in August 1976.  The album was renamed "Klaatu" when released in the United States by Capitol Records.  It is regarded as one of the band's greatest albums (along with "Hope"), using the same kind of Beatlesque psychedelic rock (in the style of "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" and "Magical Mystery Tour"), with a few new additions; most notably vocal distortion, more backwards instruments, and some obscure musical instruments such as electric sitars.  The Juno-nominated album cover was painted by a friend of Klaatu's members, the Canadian graphic artist, Ted Jones. [PAR] [TLE] Klaatu (band) [SEP] Klaatu was a Canadian progressive rock group formed in 1973 by the duo of John Woloschuk and Dee Long.
