You all know that Beyond The Valley of The Dolls is a great cheesy movie, right? If you haven’t seen it, you should check it out, and not least because the soundtrack is genuinely great stuff, and home to this lost classic piece of 1960s rock by the Carrie Nations (Is it just me who thinks the vocalist sounds like Cher after a particularly bad night?). I’m not sure if the first time I saw it was after a friend’s birthday party when looking for excuses not to clean up, but that’s the situation that always flashes through my head when I hear this song. Well, that and Z-Man yelling “This is my happening and it freaks me out!” at the top of his voice, but that’s to be expected.
