Another Irritatingly Early Clue to the New Direction!

From 1961, please enjoy the great Ernie Kovacs' brilliant visualization of bandleader Juan Garcia Esquivel's space-age bachelor pad take on the venerable "Jalousie" (and a few other things).



Why do I think that the Jon Hamm character on Mad Men had that Esquivel album on his stereo at some point?

In any case, as always, a coveted PowerPop No-Prize will be awarded the first reader who gleans the clip's relevance to the theme of tomorrow's Weekend Listomania.

    Note to self;

    Ernie Kovacs not as interesting to powerpop fans as might have been expected.

    Songs involving jealousy, suspicious minds, or actual backdoorsmanship?

    I think the panel is officially stumped. :)

    I dunno. Something to do with puppetry?

    I love Kovacs! Will take wild stab: videos starring inanimate objects?

    Songs about emotions. And I love this video. I'm a Kovacs fan of sorts.

    This one may not have been my best.

    We'll see when the actual post is up on the morrow...
