SOMETIMES DREAMS COME TRUE

It was nice here today and we were on our way to a nearby flea market, but I had seen one yard sale in the paper that mentioned records and I decided to stop by there on our way out of town.

I did find 3 LPs and a couple of 45s in the basement, but the real treasure was upstairs in 6 old cardboard storage boxes......homemade video tapes....at first glance they all seemed to be things recorded off TV or Old Westerns (LOTS of Old Westerns), but then I spotted Inside Seka and the more I dug the more I found, the photo above is my final haul.

Here's the classic porn on these 13 video tapes: Up and Coming(Marilyn Chambers), Cells of Passion(Erica Boyer), All American Girls(Kathy Blake), Neon Nights, Throat 12 Years After(Sharon Mitchell), Inside Seka, Inside Desiree Cousteau, Playing With Fire(Brooke West), Women Times Four(Tina Marie), In The Pink(Jacqueline Lorains), Nasty Nurses(Janie Robins), Marilyn Chambers Is Insatiable, Virginia, Teenage Sex Kitten(Julie Lonetree), Tara Tara Tara(Seka), Deep Throat(Linda Lovelace), Swedish Erotica #1, All About Gloria Leonard, Baby Face, plus some Eros Americas(I think this was an old HBO show).

And what was my total for these 13 tapes, plus the 3 LPs, 2 45s, 6 books, and 10 other video tapes......$5.00.....and that's not $5.00 each, that's $5.00 for everything!

Porn star Marilyn Chambers Has Died at 56

Marilyn Chambers, the Ivory Snow girl who helped bring hard-core adult films into the mainstream consciousness when she starred in the explicit 1972 movie "Behind the Green Door," has died at 56.

Chambers was quick to point out in 2000 that she had done more R-rated films that X-rated ones, but she made no apologies for the latter. "I have to say that the adult films have been a total pleasure," she said. "They were like getting paid to live out my greatest fantasies. The rest of the stuff ... sometimes got to be a real grind."

Marilyn Chambers was one of the earliest "name performers" in porn movies. She is probably best known for the plot driven Behind The Green Door. She asked for and received a $25,000 salary and a percentage of the gross for starring in the movie.

Although Chambers was quick to point out in 2000 that she had done more R-rated films that X-rated ones, she made no apologies for the latter. "I have to say that the adult films have been a total pleasure," she said. "They were like getting paid to live out my greatest fantasies. The rest of the stuff ... sometimes got to be a real grind."

Farewell to a real pioneer who helped porn cross into the mainstream minds of the American public.
