LA Weekly hat geschrieben: Peter Frampton and Mike Inez (who will be playing "Iron Man" with fellow Ozzy alum, Zakk Wylde) are definitely participating and our source claims artists slated to perform (but who haven't done their parts yet) include Steve Howe of Yes, Ian Paice of Deep Purple and the god among men, Brian May of Queen. Supposedly it's only a matter of scheduling that prevents confirmation (come on May, make this happen!). Finally, it wouldn't be a space themed album without the space man and his self proclaimed Space Bass, Bootsy Collins!

Das Album wird "Seeking Major Tom" heißen.

Ich habe Shatner bisher kaum mal singen gehört, aber ich bin gespannt, was bei dieser Kollaboration herauskommt. Sein "Gesang" soll doch recht... eigen sein .

Mich würde mal interessieren, wie er - sofern er es selber war - auf Steve Howe gekommen ist. Vielleicht ist er sogar Yes-Fan?
