In 1978, William Shatner was the host and musical guest at the Science Fiction Movie Awards, where he bequeathed us a psueudo beatnik spoken word “Rocket Man”.  ”The Shat” even rolled his own “jazz cigarette” for the shoot.  Please note the 2:58 remaining mark where the 70’s video editing culminates in a superimposed 2nd Shat, doing the chorus.

Family Guy’s Stewie Griffin nails it 25 years later.
