Promotional stills of a bruised and bloodied Dolly Parton have frequently been used as illustrations for tabloid stories alleging plastic surgery disasters.
The movie was issued on VHS in Europe, but it was never made available in the United States and it's never had an official DVD release anywhere in the world.
Then-current members of the band Asleep at the Wheel appeared as the film's fictional band, The Texas Wheel, and longtime frontman Ray Benson played a supporting role as a character named Ben Rayson.
The man who tells Ben to "hurry up" in the opening scene is James M. White, the real-life founder and proprietor of Austin's renowned Broken Spoke bar.
Their extreme height difference caused technical problems, so Dolly Parton was sometimes perched on a box while Ray Benson stood in a hole.
