Trek Bloopers [mp3]


Shortly after my graduation from high school (which was 20 years ago this year), I began exploring the world of record shows, thrift stores, and collector catalogs in search of rare and unusual albums for my collection.

While perusing through an issue of Goldmine Magazine, I came across this listing in a private collector sale that was advertised. What arrived in my mailbox was this rare, then much-soughtafter collector's item from the whole Star Trek phenomenon.

The back liner notes state, these bloopers were rescued from old reel-to-reel audio tapes from a "Hollywood garbage can" and sold to a Star Trek collector... only after they created this album to cash in! The rest of the liner notes detail the entire process of what "Fifty-five apples, take one" mean, why several of these tracks are painfully similar, and other info.
