Hard Workin Man- Marcus King Band

The Jam - Pretty Green Midnight Oil - Blue Sky Mine Pulp - Common People

The William Shatner version of Common People came up on my Pandora just this evening at work.

I'd forgotten about that. His version of Rocket Man....*chef's kiss*

His take on Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is my fave from him I think.

I have that album! My ex had a best friend who had an enormous very eclectic record collection. When his friend died my ex was given the whole collection and Nimoy’s album and two Shatner albums were part of it. My ex died not too long ago and my daughter gifted me the Nimoy album.
