The Magic Garden of Stanley Sweetheart (1970 MGM)


I don't often pick up film soundtracks, but Don Johnson on cover woke my interest. Didn't he by the way play drums in some band which name i can't recall just now? He is not playing drums on this but his first role in a long film as Stanley Sweetheart. Would like to see the film, the soundtrack is interesting and sounds good. Artists: Angeline Butler, Michael Greer (actor, a role on the film), Crow, David Lucas?, The Wheel?, Stilroc?, Bill Medley (Righteous Brother). It's a pity that Kathy Smith's "End of The World" from the complete soundtrack is not on the album.

  1. It is indeed a pity that the Kathy Smith song "End of the World" did not make the soundtrack LP cut, because it is a truly groovy song. Being obsessed with the film, I noticed in the original press book that it listed the Kathy Smith song, though I didn't recognize the title from the soundtrack album. Then recently I was watching the film (for like the hundredth time) and I noticed that I could faintly hear the Kathy Smith song in the background, during a scene where a group of them are smoking weed (hence the picture you see accompanying the song). Really interesting soundtrack to a cult classic, you should hunt the film down.
