Free Music Review: Gay Sex Seduces With Scorching 70's Anthems
Hit: 5 Stars
I've always been a fan of nostalgia - especially 70's nostalgia. Obviously I'm not alone. Between the VH-1 airings of I Love The 70's (which is now airing Part 2 of the series), the success of the long-running FOX television series That 70's Show, and the movies that cash in on that decade, from the box office success of two films spawned from the 70's mega-hit Charlie's Angels to The Dukes Of Hazzard (okay, not everything was a winner), it seems that decade is forever a favorite. If you were a gay man in the 70's, you probably recall it as one of the most carefree and experimental decades of sex. All it took was a look and you were hooked. The documentary film Gay Sex in the 70's was a reminder of just how carefree it was. And the music was no exception. It was a celebration of the gay community's long overdue freedom from the uptight and closeted world we were forced to live in until all hell broke loose in Greenwich Village on that warm June night in 1969. Without those brave gay men, where would we be today? The film represents a celebration just as this accompanying soundtrack does. And its release on West End Records, which distributed the best gay disco anthems of the 70's, is absolutely fitting. 70's diva Taana Gardner dominates this collection with four tracks that include "No Frills," "Paradise Express," "Work That Body" and the seven minute-plus version of "When You Touch Me." The in-your-face promiscuous anthems were prevalent, but some never quite as blatant as the sexually charged "Is It All Over My Face?" by Loose Joints, or the mesmerizing Colleen Heather performing her "Magic." All in all, there are 13 tracks that'll take you back and put a smile on your face in a way that you haven't smiled since you walked out of a New York City club at 6AM. If you'd like to experience what it sounded like all those years ago, pick up this CD. If you missed the film or would like to see it again, it is now available on DVD. This is a great way to see and hear what once was and why the dance music of today never would've existed without the dance music of yesterday. This compilation is almost as satisfying as gay sex was in the 70's. Closing out the set is Carl Bean's anthem "I Was Born This Way" which always got the dancefloor filled to maximum capacity and then some. Now that's what I call a climax!
GAY Sex in the 70's Poster
GENRE: SOUL, FUNK, AND DISCO CLASSICS ?GAY SEX IN THE 70s? focuses on the unbridled sexual passion and exploration that marked the twelve years from Stonewall (1969) to the first reported cases of AIDS (1981). With access to a filmic and photographic treasure trove of erotic life, Lovett?s cast of storytellers takes us from the remarkably repressed pre-Stonewall period to an era of sexual excess unparalleled since ancient Rome. Straightforward, funny and provocative, the subjects tell their stories with remarkable wit, humor and perspective. For younger people ? those who became sexually active after the age of AIDS ? this film may be a startling revelation of what everyday life was like when American youth were cutting loose from Puritanical values and ascribing to the watchword of the time ?if it feels good, do it.? For older audiences, the film may, for first time in a long time, provide a moment to contemplate the positive outcomes - the camaraderie, the community, the activism, and the friendships that were created through the sexual connections. ?Gay Sex in the 70s? is beautifully underscored by the hottest soul, funk, and disco anthems from this care free time period. West End Records, the choice label of the 70s and today, quickly became one of the defining sounds of New York City?s gay community in the heyday of Disco. It was a sound closely associated with the Paradise Garage, one of the most influential clubs of the Seventies and Eighties. The West End Records catalogue contains some of the most sampled songs in music history. Smash hits from West End include Taana Gardner?s ?Heartbeat?, Loose Joints ?Is It All Over My Face?, and Carl Bean?s legendary gay 70s anthem, ?I Was Born This Way?.Dance & DJ Music CDs
