William Shatner

William Shatner has recorded a cover of Black Sabbath’s ‘Iron Man’, as the below video will prove beyond any doubt. It’s due to appear on his new LP, ‘Seeking Major Tom’, which is out via Cleopatra Records on 11 Oct.

Ozzy Osbourne’s one-time guitarist Zakk Wylde, who plays on ‘Iron Man’, seems to approve of Shat’s handling of the track. “He’s super cool. We had an awesome time working together”, he claims.

Peter Frampton, Alan Parsons and Bootsy Collins are amongst those also billed to feature on other songs across the album.
