 film starring jean shrimpton and paul jones - the latter's first film after leaving manfred mann, where he'd been the lead singer on such successful singles as "5, 4, 3, 2, 1", "doo wah diddy diddy", "come tomorrow", "if you gotta go, go now", "there's no living without your loving", and "pretty flamingo", q.v.

paul jones sings "i've been a bad, bad boy", q.v. & "free me"† as steven shorter, a svengali of a pop star manipulated by politicians and his handlers colluding to distract the public from their machinations, who is inspired to question the morality of the part he is playing by jean shrimpton's character in this film.

† - aka "privilege (set me free)" when recorded by patti smith - much later, in 1978
