The New World of Leonard Nimoy is the fifth and final album of Leonard Nimoy. Dot Records released the album in June 1970.

Background

Unlike the four previous albums, there was no production input from Charles R. Grean or George Tipton. Instead, the production was provided by a crew of different producers, arrangers, and engineers who gave the album a country sound. Nevertheless, the album featured Nimoy's theme of songs about the human condition, love, and people living together in the world.
