Originally issued in 1981, Klaatu's fifth and final album Magentalane is highlighted by the elegiac ballad "December Dream," an homage to the recently-slain John Lennon which eerily mirrors the fallen Beatles' own late-period work. Even with the mystery of their idenities long ago solved, Klaatu still recalls the Fab Four with remarkable accuracy: "I Don't Wanna Go Home" conjures vintage McCartney, while "Mrs. Toad's Cookies" is like a Yellow Submarine track left on the cutting room floor. "A Million Miles Away" and "The Love of a Woman," on the other hand, bring to mind Electric Light Orchestra — inspiration once removed.
