Bobby was my next door neighbor at a funky beach on the south end of Malibu in the late 70s when he wrote this. We called the beach Dog Beach because every time the high tide came in the dogs would bark like hell while they re-pissed out their territories. Bobby and Peter were two of the nicest guys you could ever want to meet. True below the radar Hollywood originals.
I'm an old radio guy. One my 1st gigs was at a station playing Dr. Demento on sunday evenings. We were supposed to keep the vinyl records on file in case the distributor wanted them back. I kept several for myself. Miss those old shows. Ain't I something.
I got to see Dr Demento in person in the 80's at Knotts Scary Farm in Anaheim CA. I loved listening to him on KMET & KLOS in Calif. 1970's.Sunday nights. I would always be in trouble because of singing those songs. My brother would tell my mom that I was making fun of him. Lunatic, Fungus among us, etc. Back in 1973 4 & 5.
Best part was when they made Star Trek V- The Final Insult, Scotty steps into the turbo-lift, the computer says "le-le-le-level, please", Scotty says "Up yer shaft" and we ALL thought of Star Drek.
"I would say that the program is at too early a stage to permit solving any serious difficulties, Jim." "Recommendation?" "Suggest you wait for further plot complication before undertaking corrective measures." I have quoted this ever since I first heard it! Also, "Colossal Negative Space Wedgie" would be a great name for a rock band.
The original version of "Star Drek" was on the Tellurian Enterprises label and was produced for The Star Trek Convention in NYC in 1976. It was our exclusive on our label.
I have both versions on vinyl. The one showed in the video here is from Rhino's The World's Worst Records. I have never seen the version above on a 7" 45rpm. There is another version on a 45rpm record. The label is "Pizzeria Records" and the catalog number is "Space 1". Even on the record written below the label name it says "We Deliver". The version on the 45 is different.
THANK YOU!!! I knew I wasn't crazy! I remember that there's another version of this in which Captain Jerk has a brief flirt with the "girl" at the end, who does an awkward Mae West impression. As he gets in the car, he asks, "Hey Space Fox, what's your sign?" And she replies like Mae, "Ooh, Danger, Curves Ahead!" as they drive off. And when my son and I are watching an episode, every time Kirk meets a new sexy alien, we blurt out, MST3K-style, "Hey Space Fox, what's your sign?"
"I've given her all I can. She can't hold out much longer. She's going to blow any minute now" Scotty's premature ejaculation problems were well known throughout Star Fleet.
I swear there's another version of this in which Captain Jerk has a brief flirt with the "girl" at the end, who does an awkward Mae West impression. As he gets in the car, he asks, "Hey Space Fox, what's your sign?" And she replies like Mae, "Ooh, Danger, Curves Ahead!" as they drive off.
Isn't there a version of this where I think it's Chekhov, who keeps yelling, "Captain, Captain, All the stars have gone out!" And Capt Jerk tells him he has his elbow on the screen's off-switch, lol. Ohhh, that's The Congress of Wonders spoof, my bad. ^_^
I have two distinct versions of Star Drek. The one I've been listening to since I first heard it on Dr. Demento back in '76. But while looking for a copy to download a few years back, I came across a very different version. Several lines were not there and there were new ones that weren't on the original [I am, of course, assuming that the Dr. D one was the original]. Also, the voice of Lt. Manura I think is a totally different person.... One more difference - there's a ton more - is, instead of encountering a "Negative Space Wedgie", it was a "Negative Space Turkey" [More like in 'Star Trip', by the Congress of Wonders, but I digress, sorry...]. The point of all of this is that I'd love to know when, and why this other version was made. Anyone know?
The 45 version I have is a bit shorter, and has the Turkey rather than the Wedgie. The Lt. Manura voice was based on Flip Wilson's "Geraldine" who was very popular at the time the record was released.
I never liked this version. I thought the other version was much better and I have a cassette stashed away somewhere with a recording of it taken right off Dr. Demento's radio program. It also has "Killer Curve" by the Pink Flamingo Foundation. I need to find that tape. Talk about a blast from the past!
The voices are Bobby Pickett and Peter Ferrara. Peter is the softer voice. They wrote this, not clear from the comments if some people think Doc Demento wrote this.
The humor's obvious, and it's about as politically incorrect as a Trump Twitterstorm, but it was either the first STAR TREK parody that got released, or the first that was appreciated by more than hardcore Trekkers at Cons. It still holds up - if you can get past the racist caricatures of Sulu and Uhura....
Jesus, I listened to this a thousand times back in the 80s. Dr. Demento was my religion.
Obviously not Catholic otherwise you wouldn't take the name of Jesus in vain!

And I've been enjoying the original Star Trek on H&I nightly!

@@edwardshaw9743 That Vinyl Channel has that version in their Novelty Playlist (the one you mentioned) if you want to hear it.
I wonder if this is where Mel Brooks came up with the name Schwartz for Spaceballs

Bobby "Boris" Pickett's 1980 follow-up to "Monster Mash."
Think this was 1975 . In 1980 he did Monster Rap.
"Stardate 6935.2"
Was that 69 reference intentional or just a happy accident?
Stay Demented!
The best voice on the whole thing is “Snotty”.
To funny!
Great parody.
This had rather modest play on Dr. Demento since 1987; eclipsed by the Firm's Star Trekkin.
This is so much better than Star Trekkin. Much more thought went into it.
I never liked this version. I thought the other version was much better and I have a cassette stashed away somewhere with a recording of it taken right off Dr. Demento's radio program. It also has "Killer Curve" by the Pink Flamingo Foundation. I need to find that tape. Talk about a blast from the past!
LISA WEINER if you find that tape, I'd LOVE to have a copy!!
Madlib!
what album is that?
Does anyone know who the particular voices are and which ones are Bobby??
The voices are Bobby Pickett and Peter Ferrara. Peter is the softer voice. They wrote this, not clear from the comments if some people think Doc Demento wrote this.
What happened to the Russian guy?
Season 1
Snotty lmfao
a touch racist with Sulu and Uhura's voices there. otherwise enjoyed this blast from Dr. Demento's past.
I always thought the Sulu voice sounded more like it should be Chekov. Sounds more Russian than east Asian to me.
And Snotty/Scotty's voice? Yeah...
The non-PC stuff is the funniest, on one level because it's clever, and on another level because it sends the woke mafia sobbing to their safe spaces.
The humor's obvious, and it's about as politically incorrect as a Trump Twitterstorm, but it was either the first STAR TREK parody that got released, or the first that was appreciated by more than hardcore Trekkers at Cons.
