The band in the movie "O LUCKY MAN" was the Alan Price Band and they did the
music for it also.  This is one of my all-time favourite movies, it's a shame
that you had to wait until it was on cable.  

As I recall it didn't have a very long run at the theaters, at least in this
country.  I can remember having a long argument with a friend and his wife
after the movie, they didn't approve of the not too subtle message by 
director Lindsey Anderson that either you conform to the masses way of life
or perish.

I'll always go to see this flick, anytime it's possible.
