between this news, and the reported duet with Henry Rollins, and the involvement of Jon Auer of the Posies, I really might have to buy this album when it comes out.

Ben Folds is pushing back the release date of his next solo album to early 2005 in order to give "Star Trek" veteran William Shatner's upcoming collection, "Has Been," his full attention.

this gets weirder by the second.

I'm definitely gonna buy this!!

Come on people! This is the same guy that did "Rocket Man" at the 1978 Science Fiction Awards!! The FUNNIEST THING EVER!!

I'm getting flashbacks to Pat Boone's metal album -- a few seconds of cred, then quickly forgotten.
The cast of characters is truly bizarre ... I mean, Nick Hornby co-wrote a song?

― Barry Bruner (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 29 June 2004 17:36 (twenty-one years ago)

i hope nick hornby and ben folds go to get coffee during the recording session, and shatner beams the studio up, so those two douchebags cant do the process any harm.

the achievement of The Shat only grows with this news

― omg, Tuesday, 29 June 2004 17:42 (twenty-one years ago)

it really doesn't matter who else is on the disc, because Shatner can overpower anyone with the sheer force of his personality. Everyone else is just window dressing.

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 29 June 2004 17:43 (twenty-one years ago)

i hope thats true.

― peter smith (plsmith), Tuesday, 29 June 2004 17:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Wait a sec - in what fucked up Twinkie of a world did Pat Boone's _In a Metal Mood, Fucker_ garner Pat "a few seconds of cred"?

Is it in Esperanto AGAIN?

I've never been motivated to buy a Ben Folds record, but I saw Shatner singing with Folds on Conan a couple years back to promote the Fear Of Pop side project, and it was BRILLIANT.

the record is not half bad either.

three months pass...

So who's heard the Shatner record? It's really pretty good and to be honest, Common People excepted, there's not too much to laugh at on there. In fact lyrically it's pretty serious covering the death of his wife, relationship with children, public perception of him (that's presuming it's all autobiographical).

Really very good and not what I was expecting.Whether people want a serious Shat record is another matter. My brother still thinks it should have been called 'Return of the Shat' though.

much Shatner LP love here:

William Shatner - Has Been. Opinions?

Is anybody else exited for William Shatner's "Has Been"?

Finally a new William Shatner album

and there's several other Common People threads too!

His foray into "metal" was a big hit with the "easily impressed, gullible fucktards" crowd.
