December 1968. Apollo 8, uusally regarded as the most dangerous mission of manned space. Fate was sure against Jim Lovell landing on the Moon. Got to orbit it in Apollo 8 as intended but theh his chance to land came on the Apollo 13.

Bellarmine High School
Hold it, they played "Angel of the Morning" at a good Catholic school. Didn't they listen to the words? "If Heaven says we've sinned well it's what I wanted now"
Anyway, I have this on my thumb drive that I play in my wife's car, along with a bunch of other oldies that my parents told me about (!).
