yep, one bit of trivia, The Who were the band that they originally wanted to do the film, but they turned it down, that is why Jeff Beck's starts smashing his guitar during their cameo appearance, also one of the few times the lineup of Beck/Page line up was captured on film.

BTW detuned your turn.

As a bonus Manny, who wrote the music score for Blow Up?

When they were kids. Like Thirteen years old.

In other words, wrong answer. Please try again.

At one point they called themselves "Rat Salad", but I'm not sure when that was.
