Subject: RE: BS: And you thought Shatner was bad?
Yes, yes...the Spaw/Shatner Fiasco! Wonder how much our dear Spaw paid various Catters to vote for him. Or was it done by bribery, blackmail and deceit?

BTW, Little Hawk, it was the Great Man's version of "Mr. Tambourine Man" that turn Dylan on to the idea of the Shatner/Dylan Sessions. Dylan was "blown away by the Man's stylings", and immediately discussed the possibilities with Grossman. Grossman, being somewhat intimidated by the Great Man (Sort of like our Spaw), tried to dissuade Bob from pursuing the idea. But Bob was adamant. But, alas, the great Egos clashed over the billing, and it all went to hell. Can you imagine what today's music would be like had the Sessions occurred!!
