Endangered Species (Klaatu album)
Encyclopedia : E : EN : END : Endangered Species (Klaatu album)
Endangered Species is the fourth album by the Canadian Progressive Rock band Klaatu. At this time, the band had virtually no artistic control over the music; the album was a project of Capitol Records. To quote the [Official Klaatu Website]'s FAQ (by Dave Bradley):
"An outside producer was brought in, most of the instruments were played by Los Angeles based session musicians, and the band members were asked to add their voices and (usually) one lead instrument per song. The band was sent home before the album was even mixed."
The diffirence between this album and the rest of Klaatu's work was evident. The band evidently resented this, as one track on the album (Sell Out, Sell Out) was a searing attack on Capitol's attempts to "Jump on the bandwagon".
However, original Klaatu artist Ted Jones did return to paint the album cover.
