‘What The Bible Says About Flying Saucers’ by one Rev. Bud Spriggs and issued on Nashville’s World Wide Records. Rev. Bud Spriggs called himself the ‘Chaplin of Hell’ a title he received from the Mayor and City Council of Hell, Michigan (according to liner notes). The opening dialogue sees Bud in fine UFO Shtick form complete with canned laughter on the non-existent punch lines. Hear these tracks on WFMU’s “On the Download”.

Another Canadian TV curiosity. Patof the Clown. “Chez Les Petits Hommes Verts” I don’t know much about him, but check out this trippy, cult-like youtube music video from 1972!
In Orbit with the Sunshine Choral Aires. Crusade Records. Another in that strange genre of Christians born again in outer space. Taking the gospel to the galaxy.

Buck Rogers In the 25th Century. An Original Radio Broadcast. A George Garabedian Production.
“From Another World” by Sid Bass on RCA. A space-age bachelor pad staple; this one pressed in Argentina I think. Promising strange, other-worldly sounds and far-out music, the tracks here are mostly dull big band arrangements that begin and end with some “spacey,” electronic tones. I like the colorful sound waves on top of the black and white photo.
French “Party Interplanetaire” A cool compilation on the French label President.
Os Velhinohos. “Transviados Em Orbita” RCA Brazil These old dudes are usually oggling some young babe. Here they are in orbit playing patty-cake, drinking tang and floating around. Crazy man.
“A Day in the Life of a Dinosaur” Starring Phil Foster as “Bronty” on Golden Records
During the 1950s Foster made several comedy short subjects as “Brookyn’s Ambassador to the World”. Because of his popularity he was chosen by George Pal to be one of the military space crewman on a trip to Mars in “The Conquest in Space”. It was Garry Marshall, an old friend whom he helped get started as a comedy writer for Joey Bishop and other entertainers, who lured him again to Hollywood, first to appear in “The Odd Couple” and then to co-star as Frank DeFazio in “Lavern and Shirley.” He also worked in film, notably “Bang the Drum Slowly.” He also recorded a handful of live stand-up comedy albums. — Wikepedia
