'60s song' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'band will pair poorly with unknown' is the wordplay.
'poorly with' indicates an anagram (a poor spelling).
'unknown' becomes 'z' (algebra).
'band'+'will'+'pair'='bandwillpair'
'bandwillpair' with its letters mixed up with 'z' gives 'PINBALL WIZARD'.
