According to LA Weekly, the actor will collaborate with a number of rockers on the LP, including Peter Frampton, Mike Inez, Steve Howe of Yes, Ian Paice of Deep Purple, Brian May of Queen and Bootsy Collins.
The Star Trek icon plans to cover popular rock and metal tracks for the release. Most of the songs will have a 'space' or 'flying in space' theme.
Two hits Shatner is expected to cover are Black Sabbath's 'Iron Man' and Foo Fighters' 'Learn To Fly'.
