I went to see this little fiasco based solely upon the very first review that I read here at IMDB. The writer in question planned to see this film over and again in the hopes of committing its dialogue to memory! Good Lord! WHAT dialogue? The F word?
If you like psychotic camera techniques, explosions for the sake of orange flames, a soundtrack that begs to have your eardrums removed and above all horrendously bad acting by people you'd NEVER expect would be involved in such a terrible piece of dreck, then this is the film for you. Buy the soundtrack CD, memorize what little dialogue you can find between profanities, wear the T shirt, too. Your taste, or perhaps your sanity, is surely in question.
The only question in my mind is why I didn't get up and walk out during that unforgettable opening credits sequence? It set the tone for what turned out to be a great big cinematic migraine.

I saw this film while it was in first run, back in 1969. Expecting an action film, what I recall seeing was one of the worst most laughable bombs in cinematic history. The special effects were amateurish and the acting dreadfully stiff. A Japanese movie with two has-been American actors edited in.
When I first discovered Mystery Science Theater 3000 back in the early '90s this film immediately came to mind as perfect fodder for a send-up. I don't know if they ever got around to spoofing it, but Joel and the crew should have.
Don't waste your time on this turkey.

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.
