Background

Unlike the first two albums, Nimoy stepped away from his Mr. Spock persona on this album. There are no science fiction or Spock themed songs, or outer space sound effects featured on the album. Instead, the album consists of folk songs.[1] However, it is believed that the spoken word tracks, "Consilium" and "Where It's At" loosely tie into the Spock persona.
