The Touch of Leonard Nimoy is the fourth studio album released from Leonard Nimoy. The album was released in 1969, on Dot Records.
Background
Continuing with the folk sound and direction he established with his previous album, the songs range from optimism, political awareness, the human condition, living together, and love.
Nimoy recorded "Just Can't Help Believing", "Trip to Nowhere", "Piece of Hope", and "Maiden Wine" on 7 October 1968, and on the 21st, recorded "Cycles", "Now's The Time", "I Search for Tomorrow", and "Nature Boy". As of November 1968, the record had not yet been titled.
The song "Maiden Wine" was featured in the Star Trek episode, "Plato's Stepchildren". It is the song sung by Spock while he was being manipulated by the Platonians in 2268 (hence the "serenade from the laughing spaceman", as originally named). It had been composed on a vacation weekend at Lake Arrowhead.
