William Shatner - Seeking Major Tom (link to Shatner's "Iron Man" cover!)
« on: September 10, 2011, 12:08:16 AM »
I've been waiting to hear William Shatner's new album forever, because the whole idea of it is just so bad it's good. Today they've put up the whole song of Iron Man (official link). It's slightly better than I expected, although still quite funny in places.

https://www.revolvermag.com/news/exclusive-william-shatner-premieres-his-version-of-black-sabbaths-iron-man.html

As expected, Zakk Wylde goes a little crazy with the squeals, but I love his Ozzy copy vocals here. And I didn't realize Shatner was actually going to SING!

Steve Howe, Patrick Moraz, and John Wetton are on this album, so I feel like I must have it.

:lol I'm pretty sure Shatner is well aware of his camp appeal by now, and he's clearly trying to tap into a different demographic here. It's something you either find terrible, or so terrible that it's fun. I fall into the latter category. I don't expect so many here to enjoy that, but I thought people might be interested to hear it anyway. :tup

I have to admit I kind of like his album Has Been.  What can I say, I'm a sucker for Ben Folds arrangements.

Has Been was lots of fun and... surprisingly and somewhat effectively serious at times.

Well if you put it that way it's understandable. I thought it was quite enjoyable in that sense. :lol

I own the DVD actually so I have seen Free Enterprise.  I need to find a few hours where I can take the time to soak it in again. I almost wished there had been a sequel. Pure genius.


Don't know much about Boston Legal other than I've heard he's been on there.

Need to pick up Has Been. Forgot to get it when it came out.

Boston legal is definitely one of my favourite tv shows... I've always liked court scenes, interesting cases and brilliant arguments by genius lawyers... BL has'em all... Plus brilliant humour ...

In studio footage of Shatner recording the vocals for Iron Man. It shows a couple of vocal bits that didn't make it into the song, and it's obvious why. :lol
