Klaatu - We're Off You Know 1977

Klaatu was a Canadian rock group formed in 1973. They named themselves after an ambassador, Klaatu, from an extraterrestrial confederation who visits Earth with his companion robot Gort in the film The Day the Earth Stood Still. In Canada, the band is remembered for several hits, including "California Jam" (1974), "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" (1976) and "Knee Deep in Love" (1980). Internationally, the group's pop-influenced style of progressive rock has led to them being known as the "Canadian Beatles".

In 1977, a rumour started that Klaatu's 1976 debut studio album 3:47 EST could actually be a release by a secretly reunited Beatles recording under a pseudonym. These rumours were fueled by a number of factors, including the fact that their album was released by Capitol Records (also the Beatles' label in North America), the lack of artist and producer credits or photographs in the album packaging, Klaatu's avoidance of public performances, and the fact that the group's vocal and musical style was reminiscent of the Beatles. Capitol Records tried to make as much of the rumours as possible, by issuing ambiguously worded statements that failed to make the band's identity entirely clear.

Hope is Klaatu's second studio album and their first concept album. Released in September 1977, it won a Juno Award for Best Engineered Album and a Canadian Music Critics award for Best Album that same year. The album follows the loose concept of space travelers visiting a distant planet. An alternate version of Hope was released in 2005 as part of the group's Sun Set collection of rarities. The alternate version on Sun Set includes the complete contributions of the London Symphony Orchestra, which had largely been removed from the original version. Hope was remastered and re-issued in 2012 by the band's members, and was released on the band's independent record label Klaatunes.

phantom of the paradise novelization liveblog here we go

I don't know that much about maine but I feel neutral about winslow being from there. he does strike me as a northerner, as well as someone from a small town

(paraphrasing but) "it was kind of winslow's fault his piano teacher killed himself" HUH???

"alan d. swan" holy moly at least "dorian" had some pizzazz

also winslow being 18 and not even out of high school is. a choice. in my opinion having him be in his 30s is more compelling

"phoenix" being a stage name does make sense but idk I kinda liked the idea her parents just named her that

this really does read like bad fanfic but it's not especially funny, just sort of dull... though there are some particularly egregiously bad moments, those aren't funny either

"autistic blob" CHRIST

winslow does not beat up any guards but the description of him losing his grip just makes me think of that "I'm insaaane... I'm crazayyy" video

whyyyy is this book so racist.

winslow just goes back to his old hotel after being in prison for four months and being horribly disfigured in the record press accident. ok man.

They’re so peculiar

wgere my music

o heya so i uhh created a somewhat iffy transcription of the soundtrack version of Death Valzer (that song that plays during practice when Suzy faints)

i say "somewhat iffy" because although it is 1000% accurate to the note, there are some parts where the hands/fingers awkwardly overlap (not to mention the right hand eternally playing octaves). i'm pretty sure the actual recording used two separate takes for what i have transcribed here as the left and right hand parts, which is why these issues exist :/

i suggest using this score as a guideline but ultimately playing what feels right/comfortable. otherwise, play it with a friend on a separate piano

also i'll be working on a transcription of the in-film version which is slightly different. but anyway

AND ONNNEEE AND TWOOOO AND THREEEEEE AND FOOOOOUR
