Hello. I'm Leonard Nimoy. The following tale of alien encounters is true. And by true, I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies. And in the end, isn't that the real truth? The answer is: No. more at @fredbuxfood.bsky.social #filmsky🎬

Hidden gem. #FlorencePugh is starring in #Thunderbolts at the moment but back in 2018 she was in The Little Drummer Girl. If you liked #TinkerTailor, this is for you.

The Best Songs from 1985 (according to whatever) - I recognise the bottom 8 but not the top 2 at all youtube.com/shorts/6DI34...
I know, you need to see #MichaelFassbender doing #TheWorm on #GrahamNorton. Well you do so get over it. youtube.com/shorts/ztbmP...
My my #GlenCampbell & #CarlJackson know how to do it youtu.be/i5vfw5f1CZo?...
A slight diversion from the humdrum. The banjo duel from #Deliverance. Randomly brilliant. (wait until 3.00) youtu.be/NFutge4xn3w?...

If you're old you'll remember this. My wife said 'I'm a bit too young for this'. Well sad. I'm not. So here's Dire Straits from 1985. And anyway aren't we, really? youtu.be/JcqhvPNiJzo?...
I'm not into modern music, but I do love this. The Sugarhill Gang, #RappersDelight youtu.be/mcCK99wHrk0?...
Holy shit I found the Gods of Rock and Roll. #ACDC playing Whole Lotta Rosie back in 1977. How Angus is still going nearly 50 years later is anyone's guess. youtu.be/CHo2EqDpK7g?...
For all you ageing stoner hippies out there, remember Ogden's Nut Gone Flake by the #TheSmallFaces? I do. A proper banging concept album. From a long time ago, forgotten until our children's children's children rediscover it and reclaim it at as their own! youtu.be/6vWTtx_PxPo?...
Whipping back to Live Aid in July 1985 we find Queen just finishing up their set. Who to follow? #DavidBowie with what has to be the definitive rendition of #Heroes (got to love his South London accent). youtu.be/JFHC6t13hi0?...
Video Killed the Radio Star. Nothng compared to Social Media. Here's a 25 year celebration of a prescient song we may or may not be familiar with. (Now it's more like 45 years old. Jesus everything is old!)
Now hear me out on this one. Zadok the Priest. Sung at #CharlesIII coronation. From a jingoistic perspective, it's a banger. From about 1.30. I mean it's just good old Great Britain. A past that wasn't really, certainly isn't now and never will be. But we can pretend.
Here's a blast from the recent past. Who even remembers the omni-mindshambles of the #pandemic? It's like it didn't even happen. The #BBC Live Lounge captured the mood back when whenever it happened - includes #Anne-Marie #Celeste #ChrisMartin #DuaLipa #JessGlynne #Mabel #RagNBoneMan #YUNGBLUD et al
This is the end my friend. Back in 1991 met a college chap who was into The Doors. A stoner, as all the good people were back then. I'd never heard of them, despite liking Bowie, The Beatles. The Doors were another level. Lost now unless you are more inclined to the esoteric side of life I think.
Want something ball-achingly good? Let's go back, way back. To 1970. #DeepPurple. Listen to it all. Back then, in the 20th Century, tunes had a beginning, a middle, and indeed an end. My friend. Which reminds me...
#Prince - the dark horse of rock'n'roll. Or R'n'B. Or maybe just pop. The man could play. Here he turns George Harrison's 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' into something else. It's just more than it was. (Go to 3.30 for the good bit) youtu.be/dWRCooFKk3c?...
If you want to watch and hear an absolute gem try Dean Martin and the sublime Caterina Valente. Fantastico!
And we're off. Queen mind-meld the audience at Live Aid, 40 (yes 40) years ago. We had this playing all day on the cathode ray tube. If anyone says 'I was there' I say 'Where did you pee?'
While we're on the subject of #TheWho here's Baba O'Reily. Just for the tuneage.

Politics is tedious but this photo of #Trump is so annoying. He's got a face you just want to punch until it's a bloody pulp. Don't really know about #Rubio but when you see a photo of him his eyes don't seem to work properly and he always looks like he's puked or he's about to. Wankers all of them.
