On the next Sound Of Plaid: The SHAT.

William Shatner.
The Shat.
A few days ago The Shat turned 80 years old, which I believe makes him the first octagenarian to record with Henry Rollins. And it’s recordings like that which we’re going to focus on with this week’s Sound Of Plaid. Sure, we’ve played The Shat before, not to mention many more of The Nimoy (did you know he put out six albums?) but we’ve never played the whole of his opus… his first album, The Transformed Man. Thirty-seven overacted minutes mashing up Shakespeare and 60’s cover songs like only Shatner could do… on the next Sound Of Plaid.
Hey folks, what is the song you play in the background when you’re chatting? It’s very awesome!
Belated reply: It’s “The Millionaire” by Dudley Moore, from the soundtrack of Moore & Cook’s “Bedazzled”. Couldn’t ask for a better loop for a music bed…
Call me wind because I am abolsuelty blown away.
