Canadian band released their first album 'Klaatu' in 1976. The world is still waiting and hoping for a Beatles reunion. Because this band sounds like what people think the Beatles would sound like in 1976, plus because there's no credits on the album, except Klaatu, it is rumoured that this band is The Beatles in disguise. It was not of course.
This song called California Jam is from their first album

You're welcome. I can't remember what I gave to you. Are you in need of the other cd's?

I've read that Klaatu caused quite a stir as many fans believed they were actually the Beatles. Do you know happen to know which tracks caused all the fuss?

It was the complete first album that caused the stir. People thought it sounded like The Beatles, that The Beatles had produced the album or that The Beatles where actually playing on the album. The album did not mention a line-up and songs were simply credited to 'Klaatu'. Big part of the stir was most probably that people wanted to hear new material from The Beatles...

The song has quite a long intro and that is sometimes cut off. But I'm not sure there's an official second version of the song. The Carpenters played it as well by the way.

I'm sure this was one of the tracks Michelle. It's called 'Hope' and it really did cause a stir in the mid seventies : [music]http://www.fileupyours.com/files/153600/Klaatu%20-%20Hope.mp3[/music]

A few tunes sound like 70's Wings with Pauls voice and so forth. A couple tunes also has some guitar work that sounds like George and some brass and orchestration close to later Beatles stuff, but thats it.
I really cant see where all the fuss originated from.
