Tonite Let's All Make Love in London is a 1967 semi-documentary film made by Peter Whitehead about the "swinging London," but is basically a series of psychedelic performances and interviews.

It features live performance by Pink Floyd and footage of John Lennon, Mick Jagger, Vanessa Redgrave, Lee Marvin, Julie Christie, Allen Ginsberg, Yoko Ono, Eric Burdon, Michael Caine and many others attending one of the band's concerts.

An LP soundtrack album for the film was released in 1968. After that, it has been released twice on CD; by See For Miles Records and by Immediate Records, with a bit different track listing. The soundtrack is chiefly known for the inclusion of two otherwise unreleased (except the 1995 EP London '66-'67, which encompassed these songs), early Pink Floyd recordings: a long take of "Interstellar Overdrive" and "Nick's Boogie", an improvised instrumental. On the original vinyl soundtrack album, "Nick's Boogie" was not included and "Interstellar Overdrive" appeared on edited form, clocking at 3:02, while the length of the full-length version was 16:46. Album also contained "Interstellar Overdrive (Reprise)," a clip taken from the beginning of "Interstellar Overdrive." Later, the See For Miles CD version of the soundtrack had the full-length version of "Interstellar Overdrive."

In 1991 a CD containing the two Pink Floyd tracks and the two David Hockney and Lee Marvin interviews (interviews are as one track, thus the cd has 3 tracks although the booklet incorrectly lists interviews as separate tracks) was released to help promote the full soundtrack album.
