Alone in his B29, Captain John Highhat, fearing for his life, had stayed in his post after the other crew had bailed out. He was heading for the ocean. Suddenly on the horizon, a flying saucer appeared, rescuing John and beaming him aboard, taking him back to Venus. Here John taught the Venusians to play rock'n'roll and the band was formed, with julian Broadhurst and Christian Milezhigh Delaney. Their first two albums Out from Venus and Home to Venus became cosmic classics and nothing more was heard of The Flying Saucers for many years. Recently two additional albums that had circulated the inner planets as bootlegs for years came to light on Earth, Live at Area 51 was broadcast on Radio Venus in 1973 and additionally a third studio album, Saucer Blues, was discovered at the same time. Since then sadly nothing more has been heard of The Flying Saucers; retired, presumably happily, on Venus.
