James William Guercio – Electra Glide In Blue: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (United Artists, 1973) - Designer and photographer unknown

I had to look up Robert Blake's height and he's actually smaller than Ladd. And yes, that's an actual line from the movie.

In between his music production work with Chicago, film buff Guercio co-produced and directed this early '70s cult classic that's part-action, part-western, part-mystery, part-comedy and part-Easy Rider meshed into one.

Having seen this on Pluto TV a couple days ago, this is a surprisingly solid movie, all things considered. The protagonist is sympathetic (he's a motorcycle cop desperately desiring to climb up the latter), the plot's well-written, and Guercio's soundtrack has some pretty juicy jazz-rock beats. While it's rather dated today (hippies are predominantly featured throughout the film), its message holds up pretty well.

Some members of Chicago appear in the movie playing minor roles, including Peter Cetera, Terry Kath, Lee Loughnane and Walter Parazaider. Kath also performs vocals on the movie's theme song, "Tell Me". In addition, a young Nick Nolte appears in an uncredited role as a hippie.

Despite positive reviews, the film didn't do well at the box office, largely due to opening in an August (that it opened the same week as Westworld, and a week after American Graffiti, didn't help). Guercio wouldn't direct another movie afterward, and wouldn't produce another movie until almost a decade later with Second-Hand Hearts (also starring Robert Blake). That movie bombed hard, causing Guercio to take the hint and stop making movies.

If you're curious, the movie is available on Amazon via Blu-ray. Check it out if you have the time and money.
