I was a projectionist in the Bel-Art Theatre in Belmont, California when this movie was released. It was one of the better "anti-establishment" movies of its era, an action film with a disillusioned hero, Kowalski.
The score had pop songs that although perhaps from "secondary" artists worked very well. I bought the LP which is now long out of print and a collector's item.
I always liked the line in the trailer, "Now he uses speed, to get himself up, to get himself ... gone." I guess that sort of summed things up.

I saw it many times back in the early 70s. I was in the army and the film seemed to follow me from base to base. Very much a cult film.
Nice looks at the American Southwest and as noted fine music, including an appearance by Delaney and Bonnie.

Yep, she's there. That might be Claudia Lennear next to her. (She was the inspiration for "Brown Sugar".)
