I guess their hairspray budget ran out, and then they settled for the standard post-hippie look. But at least they had hair. Nobody has hair anymore.

Musically, they were just run-of-the-mill soul influenced rock, no big whoop…

But the original shoot was done in black and white. I wish people wouldn't arrogantly colorize stuff like that…just leave it alone as a historical artifact. It's only going to get worse with AI altering
