William Shatner To Record A Hard Rock Album

William Shatner is poised to add his odd inflections to an all-star hard rock covers album.

He has reportedly enlisted the talents of metal legend Zakk Wylde, Peter Frampton, and Mike Inez, already.

Rumours suggest he’ll also get Brian May of Queen, Steve Howe of Yes and Ian Paice of Deep Purple on it, according to LA Weekly.

And then there’s the suggestion that funkmaster Bootsy Collins will chip in.

The tracklist will apparently include ‘Space Oddity’, Sabbath’s ‘Iron Man’, Foo Fighhters’ ‘Learn To Fly’, ‘She Blinded Me With Science’ and, the kicker, a trademark Shatner spoken-word rendition of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’.

I take it you've never seen him do anything. He "sings" in a narrating style. Youtube.
