5 out of 5 stars In the...jingle...jangle...morning...I'll come follow ya........2007-05-21

Wow. wow. I'm not at all a "trekkie", never liked the shows, but always appreciated shatner for what he...does for pop culture. I'm 18 so missed the age of lusting after him, but get that he's...there. I got this on itunes on a whim. So Good. So Good. It is by far the most hypnotizing album I have ever heard. To hear young Shatner "sing" (his album 'has been' prepared me somewhat) and to hear Nimoy sing...I think I just might be high from simply hearing such tones. lol, buy it if you like bizarre. buy it if you like Nimoy or Shatner. buy it if you can't afford pot.

4 out of 5 stars so sad so sad.......2007-04-10

Ok I bought this knowing full well it would be bad...bad...bad. But that's what happens when actors try to be musicians. I love both Shatner and Nimoy and if you are a Trekkie/Trekker...you need this. But if you are just a music lover, you don't.

If you are into comedy though...it is pretty funny

4 out of 5 stars Scariest album I ever bought.......2007-03-08

Let me be clear from the outset: get this album only if you are the kind of person who enjoys the bizarre. It is incredibly strange to hear Leonard Nimoy sing - actually sing in a deep, almost baritone voice - about the hobbit Bilbo Baggins. His rendition of Peter Paul and Mary's Hammer Song (If I Had a Hammer) is hysterical. And Shatner, oh, Bill, what were you thinking? This album takes campy to new heights.

5 out of 5 stars Weird But Good.......2007-01-17

If you are looking for that weird cd, and one that will cause you to shake your head, this is the one for you. First, let us just say, that although Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner give it their best effort, it is not classical singing that you will be listening to. But, it is just good enough (or bad enough-depending on your tastes), that if you are a fan of either of these two actors, you will enjoy it.

4 out of 5 stars to go where no man has gone before.......2007-01-16

i would have given this cd 5 stars but there was just somthing missing. it mighte be mr. scotty doing a bagpipe solo, or mr soolo playing the skin flute, or bones haveing a drum solo in the middle. i'm just not sure i konw its missing somthing, and that something is missing from your colletion.
