    • Trivia
      First theatrical feature film of actress Susan Saint James for just under a decade after she had last appeared in three motion pictures in 1968.
    • Goofs
      When Peter Fonda goes on stage, at first he wears a right-handed guitar, but plays it left-handed. This is typically done if the guitar is restrung for left-handed play, but this one is strung for right-handed play; with the heavier strings now at the bottom.
    • Quotes
      • Tina Waters: Forget about Garland Dupree. I've got an idea that will make you a quarter of a million dollars. Are you interested?
      • Hatch: You're gonna make me a quarter of a million dollars, huh? Yeah, I'm interested. How?
      • Tina Waters: [holds up hands] Whoa, wait a minute. First we have to make a little agreement. Now, if you like the idea, you pay me fifteen percent. Is that agreed?
      • Hatch: Agreed.
      • Tina Waters: Release Bobby Ogden's version of that song. Press that thing out in 45 so fast, get it on the market. Put his prison picture on the cover. Hell, he's a real outlaw! I mean, with all this airplay he's getting on TV and radio, I mean, you've got a surefire solid gold 45 hit!
      • [big, big smile]
      • Hatch: [nods] You're right.
      • Tina Waters: [holds out her hand to shake on the deal] Fifteen percent.
      • Hatch: [but...] Hey, I'm really sorry about this, honey. I mean, it's a great idea, you know, but I had it myself this morning. Now, if you'd come just... just a little earlier...
