40 years ago on July 20th men walked on the moon. Ever since the voyage
of Apollo 11, public interest in lunar adventures seems to have waned.
But there was a lot of enthusiasm for the "conquest" of the moon prior
to 1969, and host David Garland has the evidence: pop and jazz songs,
psychedelic experiments, and a crater-full of kiddie records, all waxing
rhapsodic about what a trip to the moon MIGHT be like. Take off into
yesterday's world of tomorrow!
