Editorial Review:
1997 compilation on MCA featuring the best that Capt. Kirk &Mr. Spock recorded for the label between 1967-1970. Includesmaterial from all four of Nimoy's albums & Shatner's 'The Transformed Man'. Wacky fun ranging from Broadway numbers toprotest songs to Shakespeare narrations to covers of Dylan &Beatles tunes! 24 tracks in all, including Shatner's covers of 'It Was A Very Good Year', 'Mr. Tambourine Man' & 'Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds' and Nimoy's covers of 'Abraham, Martin And John', 'Put A Little Love In Your Heart' and 'Sunny'.
Spaced Out: The Best of Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner Reviews:
Sincere! 
2009-12-04 - Shatner's tracks are completely off the rails and funny because of it, especially "Mr. Tambourine Man".
But Nimoy sings so sincerely I find myself preferring his versions to the originals. It will be an odd soul that takes this seriously but he really is that good, warm and sincere, and it will give you some insight into the soul of this man in terms of the songs he chose to record.
All for Fun / Fun for All. 
2009-05-16 - Spaced Out is the perfect title for this stoner's delight...These guys should've been on the road with the Grateful Dead..."Further".
Space Girls are Easy! 
2009-01-11 - I bought the CD as a joke gift. I'm sure it's some of Kirk's and Spock's best work. I just wish they were backed by the wall of sound studios of Phil Spector. I didn't even listen to it, but I'd recommend the Spock solos - live long & prosper!
Space is the Place 
2008-10-16 - 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! 
2008-05-16 - 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?!
