Planet Pimp Records Presents…Thee Shatners

One of the best releases from Planet Pimp Records is this Star Trek themed collection of surf music. A rare benefit of being the guy who has a Planet Pimp tribute web site is that, a few years ago, a fellow PPR fan (thanks Forrest!) just up and decided to send me this on CD (I already had the vinyl). The music is loose and fun and filled with samples that feel like they came from the a read-a-long with Star Trek children’s book. The twenty-three minute “Mystery Track” is almost worth the price of the record on its own.
