Ok I gave it a 4 but it's more of a 3.5.

One cover version and the rest are written or co-written by Shatner - doesn't sound too promising but bear with me.

The cover version is of Pulp's 'Common People' and is worth buying the CD for that alone. Tongue-in-cheek (of course) but still rocking. The next three tracks are genius, and I don't use that word lightly.

"Live life,
Live life like your gonna die,
cos your gonna"

Shatner's timing is superb - he can't sing a note and he says as much but I genuinely think that if he had a good voice he could have been one of the great interpreters of songs, his timing really is that good.

There are a couple of tracks that are fillers, for want of a more polite word, but for the most part this is an enjoyable and sometimes inspired album. Check it out - I won't give you your money back or anything but I don't imagine you'll want it back.

Maybe it is a 4 after all.
