about this album
William Shatner's album Seeking Major Tom (2011) is a space-themed concept album where Shatner blends spoken word performance with rock and electronic music. The album tells the story of Major Tom (from David Bowie’s songs), using covers of classic rock and pop songs to explore space, isolation, and human emotion. With a mix of dramatic narration and heavy instrumentation, Shatner covers tracks like: “Space Oddity” (David Bowie) “Rocket Man” (Elton John) “Bohemian Rhapsody” (Queen) “She Blinded Me With Science” (Thomas Dolby) “Iron Man” (Black Sabbath) He’s joined by a ton of guest musicians, including Peter Frampton, Bootsy Collins, and Zakk Wylde. It’s weird, theatrical, ambitious, and exactly what you’d expect from William Shatner exploring the cosmos through rock classics.
