A few diversions....sometimes motivational via song

Sometimes, a body gets a hankering that only Leonard Nimoy singing about hobbits while surrounded by 60's pixie chicks can sate. Fortunately, we live in a world where those hankerings need not go unfulfilled!

This was originally filmed in 1967, on a variety show called Malibu U. The colour portion of the video is from "Funk Me Up Scotty," a 1996 documentary from BBC2 about the musical careers of the cast of the original Star Trek. The show cut the last verse and an instrumental/dance interlude, which I've restored using black & white footage from I know not where.

Tolkien was heavily read and this was long before any movies came out. But, funny when you look back at it. Thanks for posting. It gave a smile. ;)
