Encyclopedia : H : HA : HAS : Has Been
Has Been (2004) is William Shatner's second musical album after 1968's The Transformed Man. It is perhaps the first part of William Shatner's musical career to be successful on its own terms.
The album was produced and arranged by Ben Folds and most of the songs are co-written by Folds and Shatner, with Folds creating arrangements for Shatner's prose-poems, and feature guest appearances from Joe Jackson (on a cover of Pulp's "Common People"), Folds and Aimee Mann (backup vocals on "That's Me Trying"), Lemon Jelly (on "Together"), Henry Rollins (on "I Can't Get Behind That"), and Brad Paisley (on "Real", which he wrote specifically for Shatner).
