I truly laughed out loud at that one!  That to me is the highlight of the 
film. I also get a kick out of the facial expressions of Oliver Reed.  Jack 
Nicholson's singing isn't THAT bad.  It is A-M's singing that drives me nuts. 
 

I used to hate this movie because I loved the album so much and I refused to 
buy the soundtrack because it seemed like a joke to me.  In my eyes it was 
leavened by outsiders from the pop world. 

As i grew older and less narrow (from getting my ass kicked by life, mainly) 
I decided to give it a chance and I understood it differently.  Now I 
appreciate it for what it was during that time period. I see what the 
sybolism represents, particularly the idol worship in that church scene.  
That was pretty smart.  Besides. I like that version of I'm free with none 
other than Kenny Jones on drums!  When I was 17, that would have made me burn 
the album.  Not Keith Moon?!  Are you crazy?  Wait a minute,  I still want to 
know the answer to that!
