So is that your'e music?

The music was good, and the movie has that Easy Rider, Head, 60's vibe.

We should all band together with some sort of musical commune where we
release albums and films with a retro sixties influence like a new york or
california grocery co-op only with music, from my lips to Gods ears

Seriously I enjoyed the quirky sixties vibe and the tunes were alright
