While I was out of town, I got this message: “Dude, can you re-post the Heatstroke clip with Man Parrish sound track and the wonderful Suzanne Tyson? Or let us know which month in the archives it is?” – so here ya go – I posted it over 3 years ago but the clip is still up and working – Sunday, April 06, 2008 HEATSTROKE post
one of those things you discover and can’t believe it! Can’t remember which early 80’s magazine this is from, but I am paging through, and see this image of you-know-who with the famous mustache (he’s referred to simply as The Star in the ad!), and then realize it’s a “Gage Gear” t-shirt! Yup, an ad for Gage Gear products, featuring of course, “hot talk tapes” and three macho icons – Sellick, Dean, and Morrison! amazing!
Clinton Coe, in his Richard Locke t-shirt, with his walkman listening to one of Joe Gage’s HOT TALK TAPES. Apparently Coe was in only one porno film, Gage’s Heatstroke. There he plays Jud, the only cowboy left at the ranch on a Saturday night, trying to pass the time reading Rollo May’s Love and Will. For some odd reason, that doesn’t quite do it for him, so he goes for a walk in the woods. This is one of my favorite scenes from my favorite films, when he stumbles upon Casey Donovan, babbling naughty fantasy scenarios like a stoned slam poet over rapidly edited footage – an all out orgy with filthy voice-over – Jud’s Fantasy – written by Rick L. Pollack. At first we see Casey servicing a hugely endowed faceless Black man as Clinton masturbates, watching from the bushes; then it’s both Casey and Clinton enjoying oral on several men, as the filthy talk continues. Both men perform admirably……… anyhoo, this pic is from a 5-page Blueboy February 1982 spread – The Eight Most Eligible Men in New York Nightlife check it out – and scroll all the way down for Man Parrish‘s nice armpits and cute tummy!
Manny Parrish, Clinton Coe, & Joe Gagecan’t recall exact date, 1982 or 1983ish, an article / photo essay titled: “The Eight Most Eligible Men in New York Nightlife”
CHI CHI CLUB this image is from Joe Gage‘s El Paso Wrecking Corp; interesting coincidence that the foreman’s t-shirt is from a bar on the California Island where Mr. Gage grew up, eh?
“He’s all yours”El Paso Wrecking Corp.
directed by: Joe Gage (1977)
Starring: Richard Locke and Fred Halsted; Also featuring: Clay Russell, Guillermo Ricardo, Keith Anthoni (in the motorcycle scene), Mike Morris (father), Jared Benson (son), Lou Davis, Steve King, Aaron Taylor, Robert Snowden, Ken Brown, Rob Carter, Jeanne Marie Marchaud, Veronica Compton, and in non-sexual roles Georgina Spelvin (she plays the bartender), and Stan Braddock (plus other, non-credited guys from the orgies)
Another no-sex scene, BUT, this is an important scene – missing from the DVD, this is the first 5 minutes of the infamously missing Fred Halsted, the BOY and His Dad scene. Richard Locke (Hank) and Fred Halsted (Gene) have just been hired to work at the Wrecking Corp, and the foreman instinctively feels threatened by Halsted, and a fight ensues. Gene wins, the foreman (Stan Braddock – let’s discuss his t-shirt later) is fired and Gene replaces him – and as Mike Morris (in the only known speaking part on film I know of for Morris) says: “He’s all yours” – setting up the seduction of Morris’s son Jared Benson by Halsted. (Or is it Benson who seduces Halsted?) Now of course the other reason this scene is important is that if you own the DVD version, which jumps from The Gardener and the Rug Man scene which takes place as Locke and Halsted just arrive in El Paso – to the Orgy Finale. If you didn’t know the pair were now working at the Wrecking Corp., you’d be scratching your head wondering why they are suddenly having orgies in buildings that keep getting torn down, right? Right? You were paying attention to the developing plot, right?
“There ain’t a horse that can’t be rode, nor a cowboy that can’t be thowed.” (don’t ya love Richard Locke?)

I’ll save you more background, but if yer curious, here’s a bit of a write-up for the whole film from a few years back.
