Am I right in thinking that the version of the song used for the film isn’t the one which was released as the single? I’ve not seen the film in years, but I *think* it’s a slower take, with fewer strings etc. I only ask because I think it was down to the film usage that he was persuaded to go back into the studio and redo a tune which, according to his wife, he had be reluctant to record in the first place.Jock123 (talk) 17:37, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking of names....

"The Last American Hero is a 1973 sports drama film based on the true story of American NASCAR driver Junior Johnson. Directed by Lamont Johnson..."

Of course "Johnson" is a very common last name, and I assume Junior and Lamont are not related, but since the two names appear right after each other, almost in the same breath, it raises the question: are they related, or not? If not, the article should probably say "(no relation)" after Lamont Johnson's name.
