You really should hear "Bobby and Betty Go To The Moon" by Leo Muller.

https://www.discogs.com/Leo-Muller-Bobby-And-Betty-Go-To-The-Moon/release/936850

A concept album with some effects laden music and dialogue. Unintentionally hilarious ("Welcome Space Cadets. Welcome to the moon...") it was used by many sampling pioneers in the late 80s on albums such as "Space" by Space (a KLF/Orb offshoot).

If this doesn't cause you to look at the weird Apollo footage once more and wonder why... between 1969 and 1971 we could travel 275,000 miles to the Moon, detach from an "orbiter", descend to the Moon's surface, make a soft landing, play golf, drive a moonbuggy, lift off, connect back to the "Lunar Orbiter", fly 275,000 miles back to Earth, re-enter Earth's atmosphere without frying... SIX times without a hitch or an accident. Then wonder why since then the best NASA can manage is only 240 miles up in Low Earth Orbit because they have "lost" the technology from 1969.... then the hilarity of this album is lost...

A wondrous creation is Bobby and Betty.
