Flying Saucer Music #28
Not actual music this time, but one entry from my collection of original Contactee recordings. Henry Maday was the head of a group called the Universal Brotherhood Confederation, which had apparently changed its name from the Detroit Flying Saucer Club when Maday decided that he wanted contact rather than simple arms-length fandom.
The 45 RPM single is pressed on blue vinyl, and bears no date, although it looks to be from the mid-1960s. Maday’s sermon is delivered with sappy, new-agey music in the background. It would be interesting for some brave and talented musician to work the words into something like the Klaatu/ Carpenters version of Albert K. Bender’s “Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft,” since this one is performed from the perspective of the space brothers. I wonder how such phrases as “The Earth is God’s beautiful footstool” could be put to different music. Maybe the Messer Chups can take a crack at it.
I really like his phrase “stupid wars” (as opposed, I guess to intelligent ones) and yes, that’s me laughing like Beavis after Maday says “Uranus.” This is an excerpt from one of my old radio shows.

I just wanted to thank you for posting these “Flying Saucer Music” updates. I have been hosting a space/science/science-fiction themed radio show in Kalamazoo, Michigan for the past 5 years or so and you’ve turned me on to some good stuff that I hadn’t yet run across. I always mention the site if I’m playing something I got off of here. (Though we are just a small 100w college station, so that may not be the best promotion)
Thanks again though, it is great.

Re: “laughing like Beavis”
Good lord grow up or you’ll never be reincarnated on Venus in a higher dimension. Speaking of which, I think Frederick S. Oliver was the first modern contactee back in 1886, unless that book (A Dweller on Two Planets) is a hoax.

Kzoo,
The name of your town has always been one of my favorites and I’m happy to share. I play music from all kinds of websites on my show (8-10 PM PST Sunday nights at killradio.org.)

euphemystic,
Good screen name and welcome to the family. I laugh because it’s funny, and the space brothers would not have it any other way!
You may be right about Oliver aka “Phylos The Thibetan.” Looks like he beat out Helene “From India to the Planet Mars” Smith by about 4 years, unless Oliver simply published first.
