New Bobby Conn Video - "King For A Day"

This is the "party version" of the video for the title track to Bobby's excellent new album.

The "CD Version," viewable here, is equally glamtastic. Just less toe-sucking.

So take your pick. Bobby's disc's out 2/20/07 on Thrill Jockey, and we are falling in love with it. It's a concept album, though the concept is still a bit hazy in our minds. We recommend checking out his bio if you're curious. And stay for the delightful Q&A.

E.g.,
Q: Does Bobby do drugs? He seems kind of druggy on stage, and I’ve seen him stumble a lot.
A: Not really. Bobby is, however, very suggestible and will tend to eat or smoke anything he is given.

Well, I care about Bobby Conn. I like him. this song though... as a (lead) single... with the right push, maybe Bobby could be the most polarizing act of 2007... and at year's end he'll sweep the gummy's.
