Heino und Jerry im Über Space presents the ridiculously silly psychedelic song stylings of The National Gallery's 1968 LP, Performing musical interpretations of the paintings of Paul Klee.

Oddy enough, I reviewed this album for the 2001 Edition of Uncle John's Bathroom Reader:

"Four beatnik musicians from Cleveland tried to introduce hippies to the works of this German Expressionist painter by performing "rock-art" song versions of his paintings. Complete with nonsensical acid-drenched lyrics like "Boy with toys, alone in the Attic/Choking his hobby horse, thinking of his mother.” Special bonus: musical arrangements by Chuck Mangione!"
