Wacky sound track! Wish I could find the film, 2 December 1998
Author: Beatnik-2 from Hammond, La.

I found this soundtrack long ago, and it is really wacky and psychedelic. The Peter Yarrow song, "Silly Girl," is sweet and gentle as it segues into "Desert Moog," an early use of this keyboard. The Tiny Tim "Be My Baby" is hilarious, as are the seemingly meaningless quotes of the preacher man. I would really like to see this movie - the photos on the cover give some clue as to how irreverent and experimental it must have been. "The Helmet Commercial" for the German motorbike helmet is like old Firesign Theatre stuff. This soundtrack has influenced some funny moments in my personal life, as I have found myself thinking of the quotes and of Tiny Tim serenading some hog or politician's wife. Seeing this film would certainly solve a mystery for me.
