No soundtrack listing?


While I watched this movie I was completely amazed by the soundtrack to it. I am disappointed to see that IMDB only has one song under it's soundtrack listing. Where can I find the complete soundtrack listing? Some of those tunes I need to find and download.

It's by a band called the Electric Flag.They're pretty good.Check out amazon or something.

Hello
I am a newbie to IMDb. I recently did an internet search on "The Trip" and found your post about the soudtrack.
I have a vinyl copy of the soundtrack. I would be glad to give you more details if you want.
regards
Steve

I saw the Electric Flag at the Fillmore East, and they were one of the better bands of the period, worth rediscovering. Bloomfield was considered one of the best rock guitarists, also playing with the Butterfield Blues Band, and the "Super Session" album, along with Al Kooper and Stephen Stills.

But I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

You were very lucky to see the Electric Flag at the Fillmore East. The psychedelic era produced some tremendous bands – Moby Grape, Love, Amboy Dukes, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Spirit, Zombies. It's hard to believe some of them had the technical skills to play with all the substances they ingested, but maybe it was their inspiration – at least at first. The late '60s were truly a golden age for musical experimentation.

I know this has already been answered and you probably won't see this but I need to declare my admiration for Mike Bloomfield: best *beep* blues/rock guitarist that ever lived.

Check out his stuff with Paul Butterfield, Al Kooper, and the Electric Flag album A Long Time Coming.

Why won't I see it?

I actually have a copy of "A Long Time Coming".

Great album isn't it? My post was meant for the OP actually, but glad you've seen it.

I have a lot of Mike Bloomfield's work and think he is the greatest. I'm getting a job to save for a Les Paul because he used one. Also used a Tele on the first Butterfield album, but his best tone came from the Les Paul straight into a Fender Twin Reverb! No pedals! Sure I know that your talent won't become any better with an expensive guitar, but I love the feel of those LesPs and Mike is my idol so why not. :)
