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?

Songs with brass sections?

Songs about windows?

No, and no. Sort of.

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...
