Why she might be annoying
She claimed to not only be a space traveller but a time traveller as well.
She claimed her greatest accomplishment was building the rocket that took her to the Moon.
She drove a pink Cadillac.
She said her album was recorded on the moon (and she wasn't entirely happy with the lunar acoustics either).
She says of her Moon recording that 'The air is so thin everything sounds different up there.'
The recording quality of her album is poor.
She was a lousy singer.
She would mix fact and fiction in telling her life story, even claiming that she 'really' did visit the Moon.
She told people that she was the first person on radio and first on TV.
Among her fanciful claims was that she was thrown out of German music conservatory because she was too qualified.
She and her daughter, Georgia, formed a duo known as 'the Pamela Sisters.'
She married several times.
Why she might not be annoying
She sponsored a coloring contest that's been ongoing since 1969 (she doesn't want to rush anyone).
She offers a free downloadable coloring book.
Stereolab, a British Band, recorded a song in honor of her coloring contest, entitled 'International Colouring Contest.'
She played all the instruments on her album, including many that she concocted herself.
She was famous enough to have her obituary appear in the Sunday, August 18, 2002, NY Times.
She recorded her only album in 1969, the same year Neil Armstrong landed on the Moon.
In 1992, radio D.J. Irwin Chusid, revived her career by giving air time to her album.
Her style was optimistic and a lampoon of herself.
She was Miss St. Louis (1926).
'Lucia Pamela and the Musical Pirates' may have been the first all female country band.
She played 15 instruments.
Her daughter is well known as the owner of the St. Louis Rams (Georgia Frontiere).
Danielle Lemaire is preparing a documentary on her.
According to 'Ripley's Believe It or Not,' she had memorized 10,000 songs.
She jokingly referred to her recording label as Moontown (an obvious satire of Motown).
