This was the film that lead many rock-oriented musicians and fans into contemporary composition.  It was unique at that time for blending virtually all forms and genres of music and self-expression.  The musical score melded rock band and symphonic arrangements that won acclaim from such notable conductors as Zubin Mehta, who also performed selections from this movie with the Los Angeles Philharmonic.  It was the first large-scale release to utilize video to shoot and assemble the footage, which was then transferred to film.  This enabled the film to be produced for a fraction of the cost, had it been shot and edited on film alone.  High-quality,low-budget productions were an FZ trademark, whether the medium was music or film/video.
