    That rocket ship didn't take off until Dee came along. He was a supersonic rocketship seeking fuel!🤩😍😎...btw...ALL the folks in Klaatu are the nicest fellows you might ever encounter. As Ringo would say...Peace and Love On Ya! Terry, I hope you read this...I bought Hope the day it came out in L.A. I still listen to that original record to this day and it still is Fresh to me. Thank you, Dee, and John for your integrity, faith, and wonderful abilities to utilize your Muse. The rewards are still being generated...and appreciated.

    Hi Terry, if you happened to read this I just want to say...thank yiou. Back in High School ( 81-82 ) a buddy turned me on to 3:47 EST and it's remained high on my list of my all time favourite albums. You did a brilliant job writing that and the production is simply outstanding. I never really understood the Beatles comparison other than "All Good Things" off Endangered Species which think could easily be sung by Harrison. Anyway, thanks for the many many hours of enjoyment. Oh and the bridge on Knee Deep In Love is simply beautiful.

    Terry always gives a great interview & this this one was no exception. I can't even begin to say how thankful I am to channels like this for keeping Klaatu's legacy alive and in the public's eye. I've been an avid Klaatu fan for over 40 years (since hearing an interview Terry did with Crazy Roger of Radio Confusion waaaaay back in 1980). Their music is absolutely timeless!

    What a great interview... At the time when Klaatu first come out, not very many heard about the group. Odd how over the years they never got popular. I ended up having two of Klaatu's first album from 1976, when I came across a second used one! I'd luv to have more of their music in my vinyl collection.
