Eric Edwards..a walk down mammory lane

A visit to La Spelvin…having my way with Miss Jones!

Yesterday afternoon I left Burbank and headed for the gorgeous and winding hills of Hollywood, to make a long awaited visit to Chateau Spelvin….which is my little nickname for the quaint Los Angeles home of Gerogina Spelvin, one of the most well known adult actresses of all time. I was absolutely star struck as we were greeted by her tiny frame at the front door. I was so excited. She welcomed us into her home, me and my crew, with open arms, she gave us a tour of her wonderful stone garden, which was overflowing with Jade and wild clovers. This would have been optimal to do a video interview, but it was a bit chilly for all of us, so we decided to set up in her living room.

The amount of information that Georgina shared with me was stunning and overwhelming. She told me about her early days on Broadway, about how she got into porn( thanks Marc Stevens), how she dominated in her tenure in the biz and so much more. We spoke about so many guys and gals of yesteryear, and it was an absolutely awesome event. She still looks stunning!

Her husband was around and also shared some great stories, all in all, I am thrilled and want to thank Georgina, for being an open book and making me feel comfortable and welcomed. And of course, the crew of crews, Elijah and Elle!! You guys are the real deal!

And of course, my pictures…..

A great shot with Georgina and her husband

An Afternoon with a legend..Eric Edwards

Yesterday morning, I headed north of LA, about 75 miles, to visit and spend some time with veteran adult performer, Eric Edwards. The drive was gorgeous and once we got into the mountains, the sky became so clear, and the air, WOW, it was like pure oxygen.

When I arrived, I was greeted by the familiar face that was still so recognizable. We had the greatest day, talking about the days of yesteryear, and had some wonderful moments. After a few hours, we headed into his gorgeous, and most picturesque, country town for a hearty lunch of burgers and clubs.

After lunch we played, “name that porn star”, and it was amazing, just to be able to jar some of the cobwebs from his brain, was an entertaining experience. He is one of the sweetest guys, I have ever met. He open up to me about his past personal life, which in many ways, is full of tragedy. But, with all the hardships considered, like a tough battle with cancer and financial instability, Eric is still doing well. He looks great, still very handsome and he sounds the same to me!

Before I returned to the city , we headed into the mountains and shot some great additional footage!! One of the best days in a long time. I can’t wait to come back here.

And by the way, a huge shout out to my DP and producer….Elijah and Elle!! 2 great people, very talented, with amazing futures ahead of them. I was so honored to have you guys with me yesterday. You guys have great skills and great minds. Thanks so much for everything!!

And of course…my picture…taken in front of a 400 year old oak tree.

ERIC EDWARDS…….legend!

On my way up to the mountains to visit one of the most well known names from the golden age of adult filmmaking.

Armand Weston’s Take Off

One of our favorite films from the golden age of filmmaking. This one has it all! We have hundreds of slides from this film. The production stills were shot by legendary director, Larry Revene and the assortment and quality are both spectacular. Eventually, our entire archive will be commemorated with a very large and colorful book, which will encapsulate the entire Distribpix archive, and how 2 NY guys, took a chance producing some cheap sexploitation films in the 60′s and how they morphed it into an East Coast video legacy. But in the meantime, enjoy these never before seen slides, just scanned yesterday!!

Barbara Bourbon’s Biography….a sneak peek at Pamela

California born Barbara Bourbon spent the first sixteen years of her life on Indian reservations in the Pauma Valley north of San Diego.

A graduate of Fallbrook High, the blonde beauty attended San Marcus Jr. College for one year and San Diego State one year as well as Palomar College for two years where she majored in drama.

Ms. Bourbon then moved to Boston for three years where she was a member of the Boston Repertory Company. Her stage experience included the lead in nine plays from Boston to San Diego. They include dramatic offerings such as “Of Mice And Men” and musical delights including “Man Of La Mancha’.

Film credits for the green eyed actress include a co-starring role in “One Million A.D.” with John Carradine and leading roles in five other Hollywood general release feature films, including a role in Francis Ford Coppola’s, “The Godfather Part II”.

Starring in the X-rated “The Private Afternoons of Pamela Mann”, she accepted the role solely because of the caliber of the production personnel, including the cinematographer.

While she had no inhibitions on displaying her private charms, she rejected several offers of X-rated films before, because she considered them tawdry rip offs, with no real production value to speak of. The story line of “Pamela Mann”, the opulent sets and the eroticism that builds, enticed her to reveal her all before the cameras.

Barbara Bourbon’s hobbies include the exotic, but true one, of training Siberian Tigers, for her own pleasure!
