can’t recall where I snagged this little clip – but meanwhile, whatever happened to that David Hurles documentary Joe Gage was working on a few years back?

who you may remember from such films as:
Vincent for PAEAN Studios, Vito Milan for FOX Studios, and Brutus for COLT and Palm Drive Video. The first 3 studios all late 1970’s (even though COLT did publish a few pics in the 1980’s – see below), and then his work seemed to focus on Drummer (Wings Video I would include with Drummer) and Palm Drive. According to Jack Fritscher, Brutus was the most frequent model ever featured on the cover of Drummer. Sounds like another research project, as I have yet only to find the 2 featured below!



who you may remember from such magazines as:





update: added pic and added ID –

Director: Robert Payne (John Embry?) (1985)
Joys of Self Abuse (1985)
I can’t remember why I was breaking down this video into who’s segment lasted how long – but here you go. I will say, Ken Bergquist, again, fails to impress. I guess he was best as a still life model.
featured in DRUMMER 80
also in Studflix Vol. 4 No. 4 June 1985 (Review)




Again drafts folder talk? Yes. So, another idea/theory – Jack Wrangler probably appears in a jockstrap in at least 1/2 his films. Maybe, maybe not. So I tried to list which ones I am certain he wears one, and got stuck (distracted) but suffice to say if you are reading this I decided to “crowd source” the idea and get some help. Heavy Equipment – of course! Remember when he is cleaning the gym, and throws a couple jocks at the camera (3D effect – awesome!) And of course, Killing Me Softly – the PLOT is centered around a jockstrap – it’s the murder weapon!
so maybe linking to Jack’s GEVI page will help y’all help me – comment below (or is that above?) the film title, the scene – hey! link to or email me pics if you can!

ASK ANY BUDDY
AND THE GOLDEN AGE OF ALL-MALE ADULT CINEMA
October 20 – October 25
“The video component of a multimedia project that also encompasses an acclaimed podcast and Instagram feed, Elizabeth Purchell’s ASK ANY BUDDY compiles fragments from over 125 feature films to create a kaleidoscopic, dreamlike snapshot of the era. An official selection of nearly two-dozen international film festivals including BFI Flare and Outfest, ASK ANY BUDDY is a funny, sexy portrait of urban gay life in the years following the Stonewall Riots – or at least how it looked in the movies.”
how embarrassing – I don’t see any reference to this film on this here rambling blog! (must be jealousy…combined with laziness, or that dang “drafts folder”!) – anyhow, New Yorkers, if you haven’t seen this, you should – and try to do a double feature with one of the other featured film during this rare porn fest (now, do I have opinions on porn movies shown in theaters without backrooms, gloryholes, or other type dark crevices for friendship building? I do. yes, yes, i do. – but another time)

If you’ve never seen any of these on the big screen, I highly recommend seeing all of them; if that’s not possible, of course the headliner, ASK ANY BUDDY, plus at least Al Parker’s Turned On, Headtrip (which I don’t believe I’ve ever seen), and 10:30PM MONDAY (which I never really got interested in because Bijou Video had some COLT imagery on the cover, which I knew was wrong… ) but I digress. The Night Before I’ve actually seen there at Anthology (2001), and they do have these porno programs from time to time – check out my attempt at some form of ancient html back in 2002 for the Reflecting Poole – June 19-23, 2002 Wakefield Poole series. I’m rambling…but oooh, just took a peak at 10:30pm, and that would be my priority! Especially to see if they have a good quality, and complete print – the 33minute version on line can’t be right.
scroll to bottom of post for brief clip from 10:30PM
One last note – I do wish there were an x-rated version of the promo / preview – I get it for youtube, but jeez – can’t vimeo, or someone host an x-rated promo that promotes what the film does – celebrates gay (male) sex!
at the ANTHOLOGY FILM ARCHIVES
32 Second Avenue New York, NY 10003 (corner of 2nd Street and 2nd Avenue)
here’s the schedule at this link
featuring:




who you may remember from such films as:








Brad Mason on GEVI; more Brad Mason on BJland
From One In A Billion – (1984) – final scene with Dave Connors at home in the tub, Brad and other TV repairman Mike McDonald fix more than the TV! One of my favorite Brad scenes, but of course, his pairing in Jobsite with Dan Gillen has produced several post, and lots of comments! “Leftovers” scene from Falconhead 2 with Steve Collins…. ok – those are my first few faves – yours?
and that’s not all!!
you may also remember Brad from such magazines as:





As you can see, he appeared in a lot of magazines! many are from films/videos, and many of these overlap, like Man’s Favorite Sport! and Seducers are pretty much all the same photos, from the same film, Hot Off the Press. As I get access to some of these, I will try to add / edit in additional info, like sex partners, how many pages/images – and your help in the comments is immensely appreciated!









From HOT OFF THE PRESS – (1984) – short scene with Michael Christopher
and I’ll leave you with this final pic:


I was realizing my drafts folder is getting past 40 post again, so I am trying to whittle it down. But then got mired down with an explosion of pics for a particular mid 1980’s star, and 3 days later, still working on the post. So this pic, barely related but it came up in that research, will have to do for now. Funny I discuss my “drafts folder” much more than I would have thought! Enjoy Brian, from The Bigger The Better, and this breezy Sunday.
