Various - History: Destination Moon - 50 Years-First Man On The Moon (CD)

1-CD with 28-page booklet. 34 tracks. Total playing time: c. 79:00 mns.

• One small step for a man, one big step for mankind!
• To celebrate the 50th anni-versary of the first manned moon landing on July 20, 1969, Bear Family brings this Moon-O-Rama Edition!
• Filled with musical rarities and historical sound docu-ments, the focus here is on the beginnings, the idea of a moon landing, John F. Kennedy's 1962 announcement, and the reactions of the music business to it.
• The 34 tracks, some of which are extremely hard to get, reflect the adventurous, sometimes almost naive approach to the theme of the moon landing, against the background of the competition between the USA and the USSR from the 1950s onwards! 
• It contains interesting audio documents, like the announcement of the US President John F. Kennedy in September 1962, as well as the famous words by astronaut Neil Armstrong on July 20, 1969!
• Extremely rare recordings can be heard, like 'Rocket To The Moon' by Johnny Kay from Belgium, or Glenn Willings' 'Race To Space'!
• Also included are famous songs that take up the theme rather smilingly, such as Anita O'Day's 'Fly Me To The Moon' and 'The Rocket Man' with the Russian melody from the Spotnicks!
• In addition there are some orchestral recordings that express the feeling of a flight to the moon, like the orchestra of Les Baxter with 'Lunar Rhapsody'!

The first man on the moon
We have created our own compilation for the 50th anniversary of the first manned moon landing. And even if some conspiracy theorists doubt it, the theme is simply too beautiful, too exciting. Special songs from the preparation time for the moon landing during the Cold War, from the 50s to the early 60s, are meticulously com-piled here. 

Moon-O-Rama
Let this CD take you on a great journey into space and on to the moon! Rare songs and great hits combined, carefully remastered and of course there are liner notes to every single song, as well as many illustrations in the 28-page booklet!

Eine der besten Zusammenstallungen aus dem Hause Bear Family Productions – meinen wir dazu!

FAZIT: Der ganz spezielle Rock‘n‘Roll-Soundtrack von Bear Family Productions für den ersten Menschen auf dem Mond, der nunmehr überall fast krankhaft abgefeiert wird – na ja, schließlich ist es ja genau ein halbes Jahrhundert her. Dagegen wirkt diese musikalisch großartige Zusammenstellung herrlich erfrischend und noch dazu authentisch, da sie die Musik enthält, die es damals auch zu hören gab.
Oder wie‘s das Label selber zusammenfasst: „Eine ganz eigene Zusammenstellung zur 50-Jahres-Feier der ersten bemannten Mondlandung haben wir kreiert. Und auch wenn einige Verschwörungstheoretiker daran zweifeln, das Thema ist einfach zu schön, zu spannend. Spezielle Songs aus der Vorbereitungszeit zur Mondlandung während des Kalten Krieges, ab den 50er Jahren bis in die frühen 60er Jahre, sind hier akribisch zusammengestellt. Lasst euch mit dieser CD entführen, auf eine großartige Reise in den Weltraum und weiter zum Mond! Seltene Songs und große Hits vereint, fein remastert und zur CD gibt es natürlich auch wieder Anmerkungen zu jedem einzelnen Song, sowie viele Illustrationen im 28-seitigem Booklet!“

Genial

10 von 10 für die Idee und die Songauswahl !!

Einige Tonaufnahmen wechseln sich mit außergewöhnlichen Musikaufnahmen ab: Es sind die Worte des US-Präsidenten John F. Kennedy zur Ankündigung dieser Mission im September 1962 wie die von Neil Armstrong am 20. Juli 1969 zu hören.


V/A DESTINATION MOON – 50 Years – First Man On The Moon
2019 (Bear Family Productions) – Stil: Rock’n’Roll
On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 touched down on the lunar surface, safely delivering Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin — the first humans to land on the moon…“ Und dann der legendäre Satz als Armstrong die „Eagle“ verließ, um auf die Mondoberfläche hinabzusteigen: „Ein kleiner Schritt für einen Menschen, ein großer für die Menschheit!“ Und die BILD-Zeitung titelt: „Der Mond ist jetzt ein Ami“. – Die Welt hat sich seither tatsächlich nicht großartig verändert.


Zur Feier der ersten bemannten Mondlandung, die sich am 20. Juli zum 50. Mal jährte, lässt die „Bear Family“ eine interessante Zusammenstellung abheben. Einige Tonaufnahmen wechseln sich mit außergewöhnlichen Musikaufnahmen ab: Es sind die Worte des US-Präsidenten John F. Kennedy zur Ankündigung dieser Mission im September 1962 wie die von Neil Armstrong am 20. Juli 1969 zu hören. Neben orchestralen Werken für den imaginären Flug ins All (Les Baxter mit ´Lunar Rhapsody´) gibt es seltenes (Glenn Willings ´Race To Space´, Johnny Kay ´Rocket To The Moon´) und obskures (Anita O’Day & The Three Sounds ´Fly Me To The Moon´) zu beklatschen.
Die kalten Zeiten des Wetteifers zwischen den USA und der UdSSR versüßte den Menschen der Rock’n’Roll.
(Michael Haifl)

If you’re planning a vintage themed space party to celebrate the milestone, give this a try.

Bear Family Records have compiled an interesting compilation to mark the anniversary of a historic event. Rather than fill a CD full with a bunch of well-worn tracks, they have assembled an intriguing list of known tracks and rarities that evoke an era. The sound quality is good for recorded material of this age, with only a few noticeable issues on some tracks; more to do with the original production techniques than the reproduction. If you’re planning a vintage themed space party to celebrate the milestone, give this a try.

da fehlt der Mann im Mond von Rumble On The Beach

trotzdem sehr gut

Gelungene CD-Produktion

Die CD ist gerade angekommen und ich bin begeistert! Das Thema ist aktuell, Songauswahl ist erleuchtend und die Klangqualität überzeugt. Im Begleitheft gibt es viele Informationen zu den Songs und zur Mondlandung. Wie z.B. der amüsante Zeitungssauschnitt einer deutschen Zeitung mit der Überschrift "Der Mond ist jetzt ein Amy".

Press and Reviews
Press Archive - Destination Moon - 50 Years-First Man On The Moon - Old Time Review UK
Press Archive - Destination Moon - 50 Years-First Man On The Moon - Old Time Review UK The 28-page booklet, included in the set, provides a bit of background information on each artist and song, along with relevant illustrations and photographs. The included material is an interesting read, especially when a track is so rare that not much is known about the artist. The booklet is an extra that is not always needed, but it is certainly welcome. Conclusion: Bear Family Records have compiled an interesting compilation to mark the anniversary of a historic event.

Press Archive - Destination Moon - 50 Years-First Man On The Moon - Now Dig This VARIOUS ARTISTS Destination Moon 50 Years - First Man On The Moon Bear Family BCD 17527 It's a shame this compilation wasn't available when Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and myself took our little trip to the Moon 50 years ago. It would've kept us entertained as we zoo-med through infinity and beyond. I had no idea there were so many songs from the '50s and '60s with the words 'Rocket' and 'Moon' in the title! Mind you, not everything here will send you into Outer Space because there's a fair bit jazz, pop, novelty and MOR stuff that will only appeal to squares, ya dig?

Presse Archiv - Destination Moon - 50 Years-First Man On The Moon - UK Rock & Roll
Presse Archiv - Destination Moon - 50 Years-First Man On The Moon - UK Rock & Roll Various Destination Moon 50 Years Bear Family The compilations keep coming from Bear Family, this is a similar concept, though in CD format to the label's Grammy nominated Korean War themed box-set. As the title alludes, this compilation celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Moon landings. The track list in an eclectic mix of musical styles dominated by the rock n roll era. Setting the scene there's a recording of a fascinating speech from J F K made in 1962 outlining plans to get a man to the Moon by the end of the decade, making Neil Armstrong's 'One Small Step' clip also included, extra poignant. There are some real musical rarities nestling amongst the better-known tracks, Belgian Johnny Kay's 'Rocket To The Moon' being a notable. Left-field inclusions are the Les Baxter Orchestra and Russian band The Spotnicks along with some US pop that you might never knew existed had they not been included all of which were rubbed shoulders with rock n roll tracks in the 1950s but just not bought by the cool kids. You might get a bit fed up of hearing the words Moon and Rocket by the end of this comp but it's a cracking journey and a worthy historical document.
