Off to NYC for yet another not-so-mysterious assignation.
In the meantime, from 1975, and Ken Russell's execrable film version of The Who's Tommy, here's Elton John and his thoroughly bogus version of "Pinball Wizard."
As always, a coveted PowerPop No-Prize will be awarded the first reader who divines it's relation to tomorrow's Weekend Listomania.

Pop stars in film, musicals version?
Execrable as it may be, where else will you see Ann-Margret writhing around in puddle of baked beans? (Besides Simels' living room, that is)
Yes, I would have to concur that Ann Margaret in her prime is worth sitting through a bomb.
We all agree on that point about Ann Margaret. Now about Simels living room show . . .

Your coveted No-Prize is winging its way to you by Albatross Express as we speak.
