Pepper, and I'd listen to it in her room when she was out (on yet another date) and stare at the cover. I have vivid mental videos for each song on that wonderful album, in fact. <BR/><BR/>As for the Shatner version; it's a classic in and of itself! Ya gotta love Shatner. Did you know he did a whole film in Esperanto once?
