Shatner Transformed

The Transformed Man by William Shatner.
 
No this is not Captain Kirk trying to be a robot in disguise to sneak onto the Next Generation series. Released in 1968, this is Shatner's staccato vocal style reciting famous pieces of poetry  juxtaposed with contemporary pop lyrics of the era.
 
 

But true Shatner enthusiasts can never co past the 2004 album entitled Has Been, produced and arranged by Ben Folds including songs composed by Shatner and Folds, in particular its sole cover song, a version of Pulp's "Common People" performed with Joe Jackson.
 
Presented here in a bonus Archie comic format.
