 Space is the Place October 16, 2008
Mr. Richard D. Coreno (Berea, Ohio USA)
A compilation of material recorded by Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner from 1967-1970, it actually is more than a novelty piece from pop culture.
Shatner is (in)famous for his 1968 spoken word album, The Transformed Man, but Nimoy proved to have more of an artistic touch - without the dripping satire - releasing five albums on Dot Records and which quickly drifted away from the Mr. Spock character after his 1967 debut, Leonard Nimoy Presents Mr. Spock's Music From Outer Space.
This is a great look into the creativity of two superb actors who had serious fun when in the recording studio.
 Trekkie or No Trekkie this cd is for you! May 16, 2008
David Colvin (Oak park IL)
Never was a trekkie, saw one of the movies, KAAAAAHHN! But these cd is worth its price! Too funny and great to listen to. So whether or not your a trekkie you'll love it. What were they thinking?!
A Must Have Classic February 23, 2008
M. Province (Portland, OR)
Played this awesome album in my college painting class... until our professor begged us to stop. Highly recommended, I'm a huge Shat fan. Who remembers Nimoy's Bilbo Baggins video?
Shatner and Nimoy take flight! December 11, 2007
Elan Bodwick (las vegas)
First Shatners Lucy in the sky with Diamonds has to be heard to be believed- its lunacy and camp at its best. Suprisingly Nimoy's vocals are pretty decent in a deep monotone baritone kind of way(think Leonard Cohen) and his song selection of classic 60s folk and pop numbers are top notch- in fact i find myself listening to his versions more than the orginals.But theres alot here to laugh at - the spoken word stuff by both Star trek legends is hilarious as well as the instrumental songs. But dont be suprised if you dig some of Nimoys stuff- in particular Everbody's talkin-If i were a carpenter and Both sides now. Ps- the "ballad of bilbo Baggins" should have all tolkien fans doubled over in fits of laughter.
A gem September 26, 2007

I bought this years ago. It was absolutely hilarious. Just listened to it again. Still hilarious. Timeless. Seriously, Shatner doing the Beatles never, ever gets old. But the surprising part is, some of these songs get beyond their cheesiness--especially a couple of Nimoy's--and are actually charming. Not great music, to be sure, but listenable and enjoyable. And the track called Music for Watching Spacegirls is just plain good and should be in more soundtracks. So buy this: it's funny, it's cute, if you're a fan of these two, you'll love it. Great bang for your buck, too--there's a ton of tracks here.
