Well, I haven't heard Shatner's stuff (don't want to), but WTF is going on with Ben Folds producing it? I saw the Ben Folds Five play their very first gig in a local bar here a few years back, and I used to work with his mom...he is one talented musician imo! I remember when he was just another local 'geek' hanging out drinking beer
.
ps: I also saw Derek Trucks play his first public gig (at the ripe old age of 9 years)...it's great to catch the talented ones before they are 'known'.
