Mexican composer Juan Garcia Esquivel has been dubbed the The King of Space Aged Bachelor Pad Music. This arranger, composer and pianist orchestrated bizarre renditions of pop standards and originals. He utilized instruments such as the theremin, slide whistle and a choir of singers using not words, but sounds such as "pow pow" and "zu zu zu" to compliment his arrangements. This hour we look at the life and music of Esquivel!
