The film won three German Film Awards. It was entered into the 1967 Cannes Film Festival.[1]

It was filmed in colour in West Germany in 1967.

Soundtrack

Шаблон:Infobox album The soundtrack by Brian Jones has never had an official release, possibly because of legal conflicts. Jones played on the soundtrack, while Yardbirds guitarist Jimmy Page, session pianist Nicky Hopkins, musician Peter Gosling, and Small Faces drummer Kenny Jones also contributed their respective instruments to the recording sessions which took place between late 1966 and early 1967 at IBC Studios in London. Jones stated that "ranging from one musician to ten. I ran the gamut of line-ups - from the conventional brass combination to a country-band with Jew's harp, violin and banjo. In the main the musicians were established session men - though some of the boys from the group also played." but Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman has said that neither he nor drummer Charlie Watts participated and Jones never specified exactly which members played on the soundtrack. Neither Jagger nor Richards have stated their involvement in the soundtrack. Jones also claimed that included many session musicians, but according to the session logs most of the instrumentation was done by Jones himself.[2]

In Rolling Stone issue #1171, Jimmy Page talks about working on the soundtrack. "Brian knew what he was doing. It was quite beautiful. Some of it was made up at the time; some of it was stuff I was augmenting with him. I was definitely playing with the violin bow. Brian had this guitar that had a volume pedal – he could get gunshots with it. There was a Mellotron there. He was moving forward with ideas."

Audio engineer, Glyn Johns said that he and Jones didn't get along personally but worked well on the project, Johns said "Brian came to me and asked for help. He'd lost so much self-confidence by this time and really was in need of a hand. In a way I felt sorry for him. It wasn't that I didn't think he was capable of handling the project himself. But clearly he wanted help in the engineering. So I agreed. Brian worked very hard in his Courtfield flat on two little tape machines. He had all types of ideas which worked. He did it very well, and it came out amazingly. And we had a good time doing it. Brian was extremely together and confident while he was working on it. When it was finished he was both pleased and relieved. The rock 'n' roll bit which was written to fit the early murder scene was really good."[2]
