Storyline
A montage of the weird, a freak-out film that appeared when the expression was in fashion and in flower, along with the flower people. The film was one of the first exponents of the mobile camera-rock track-optical effect school of filmmaking, and it is much a document as it is a documentary. A repellent and fascinating depiction of the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, along with Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco and the East Village in New York. Tiny Tim amounts to something resembling a recurring motif and narrator. Written by

I've been an owner of this soundtrack album since 1968, and have always enjoyed it. It's a nice little time capsule of a long gone era.
I understand that the film is simply a documentary of a concert. Yes, it's true, I missed seeing the movie, although I had an opportunity to. You can't find it anywhere, either.
Peter Yarrow once told me (we spoke briefly in 1976) that Paul Stookey was the whispering voice on the song "Don't Remind Me Now Of Time" and that "EVERYBODY" was in on that recording session.
I believe that the movie title track was the best recording the Paul Butterfield band ever made. It's really hot!
If you ever see this LP at a used record store or convention, don't hesitate to buy it.
