Popel Vooje,

I STILL don't know the group responsible for that clip that starts at 3:36.

I know it's not The Sidewalk Sounds because their tracks were recorded by Davie Allan & The Arrows ("Make the Music Pretty") while "The Sunset Theme" was a session Davie Allan did for a Hondells record a couple years previous (It originally was released as "Sidewinder," then reused once more as "Little BSA" credited to The Buddies & The Compacts.)

Even then, there are many songs credited to The Sidewalk Sounds that are not The Arrows (on later Sidewalk/Tower soundtrack albums too numerous to name here.)

Whoops: "Like My Baby" was by Drew (Drew Bennett was the Arrows' bassist, and The Arrows provided the backing.)

The mystery track isn't available anywhere in legit form. But I can tell you one thing:

It's a cover of The Butterfield Blues Band's "East/West."

For all I know, it may be The Mugwump Establishment. But something tells me it was probably session men.

I may have to down a couple of Delrium Tremens tonight and see if anything comes to me. HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA
