Hello friends! Things are about to get electric because this week, we're getting sexy with T. Rex. Neither Shawn nor Jennie had really listened to T. Rex before, and Marc Bolan was a total mystery to them. But after diving into Electric Warrior, they've come out the other side… maybe not experts, but definitely a lot more sparkly and informed.

It was interesting hearing a whole album from this band, for whatever reason, as a kid in the UK, it seemed like all adverts for a while featured T-Rex songs so this album reminded me of being a kid in the 2000s again. And no offence taken from the song choice reaction, I only apologise to Jennie 😅. I totally get it how it could be hateable to many, (I don’t care much for Shatner as a person either as it happens). I kinda chose it more for the wtf factor anyway, though I do also enjoy it. If it helps, there is a Shatner-less version https://youtu.be/tnL_OYUEbwA?si=ZlVJIddUcG6XZehb Fear of Pop itself is more of a late 90s Ben Folds project and Shatner only guests on this one song. I dig the album a lot, especially the song “I paid my money”. Folds also produced the 2004 Shatner album “has been” which features that “Common People” cover. I enjoy that album too as I feel like it kinda uses the Shatner cringe factor to its advantage but I don’t honestly care for any other Shatner music myself from what I’ve heard.

How was your Wilco show??? (On Shatners space concept album there’s a lart where he goes “yeah yeah yeah” that sounds JUST LIKE Rocco)

I feel like we’ve gotten this kind of album 50 times already and they all fail in comparison to Big Star. This was another very mid experience for me. 2.5/5
