speaking of Palm Drive Video –
oh, and I need to update previous posts with the Palm Drive Video tag – meanwhile – Palm Drive Video
update/note: – apparently I rather liked this brochure – previously posted! – and only 3 years ago!
more David Gold (as COLT model)
As you may know, he did no film work for Colt, just stills that appeared in Honcho (July 1980 cover), Mandate (May 1980), a COLT photoset, but not much in COLT publications that I can find. A few years later, around 1988/1989, he did a film with Palm Drive Video, Dave Gold’s Gym Workout; another, Cigar Blues, is also credited, but I suspect is just a compilation of 5 men including Dave, in his case, showing clips from Workout. A brief clip below, all I have after having cold the VHS back in 2006 – grrrrrr!
and if anyone has better pics of him in socks, please please let me know!
Tit Animal – AKA Sex My Father Taught Me
more Jason Steele
and don’t forget – the Palm Drive Video documentary – Raw! Uncut! Video! – has been completed – check it out!
AKA Flex Gordan
I’m sure I’ve posted about him, Fox Studios, there’s a “bear” video from the late 90’s with Hank Hightower, I think, – and one from Palm Drive Video….and I’ve seen his name in all sorts of credits for… .editing? I ferget..
one of several pamphlet images I nabbed from eBay – Palm Drive Video’s Uncut Muscle Mechanic
Check out RAW! UNCUT! VIDEO! the story of Palm Drive Video – they are raising funds to complete their Palm Drive Video documentary – even if you can’t give much, 5 bucks helps – or at least visit and check out the work they’ve done helping to preserve a portion of our PROUD GAY PORN HISTORY!
Have y’all donated yet? Even if Palm Drive wasn’t/isn’t your cup of tea, I think it’s important to support the work of artists preserving our PROUD GAY PORN HISTORY – don’t you? Won’t somebody PLEASE think of the pornographers?
I’ve been holding on to this VHS tape for nearly 13 years – bought it like many others, with the idea for re-sale, but something told me to hang on to it. Mostly because I could find NOTHING – N-O-T-H-I-N-G – online about it, and every few years would do some more online research to find not much has changed – until a few months back I stumbled on this from Jack Fritscher – “Looking through my viewfinder, I saw what Erich von Stroheim saw in Norma Desmond descending the staircase in Sunset Boulevard: the proto-plasm of a living ghost. He was a sweet man, but his sex appeal had died. His videos for both Old Reliable and Palm Drive sold, literally, zero copies.” – oh shit! and it didn’t even hit me how rough this assessment was, I was sooooooo excited to have the 1 of zero copies out there!
I had previously sold “Sex My Father Taught Me” and “Dave Gold’s Gym Workout” – both also from Palm Drive Video….. and, then last month I started wondering what the biggee is with Instagram (I still don’t know) and checked it out, and found that a documentary on porn studio Palm Drive Video is in the works!!!! – more details at the link, including a donation page (even a few bucks helps – I just donated!) and I hope to do a proper post about that soon, and now, writing this, I am going down the rabbit hole trying to figure out how many of those Palm Drive Video have I actually seen – is Tom Caserta of palm Drive the same who did a couple for Surge Studios? Did I sell 9-Inch Pec Stud for my friend Larry, back when I had no room on my hard drive to save eBay html and video files? So many questions, so little time.
more later.
Meanwhile, head over to RAW! UNCUT! VIDEO!o – check out the trailer, donate a few bucks, and I promise to dig out that much better box cover art they sent me for Jason Steele’s “Sex My Father Taught Me” (AKA Uncut Tit Animal).
