The Music of 80s Adult Cinema Vol. 1

As a 10 - 15-year-old kid, I used to love visiting Mom’s house on weekends because she had cable, whereas Dad had a fundamental problem with cable programming. He probably thought it would warp our young minds (he was also a bit of a cheapskate, but he was a great guy overall).

Anyway, my mind found other avenues to become “warped,” and one of them was staying up until around 10 p.m. to watch softcore dramas on Showtime on Saturday nights in the mid-to-late ’80s at Mom’s house. I still have a surprisingly good memory of the plots of some of those programs. One that sticks out was a semi-comedic story about a couple who couldn’t get pregnant, so they enlisted the help of a neighbor to impregnate the wife. It turned out, however, that the wife knew she couldn’t get pregnant by this guy either, yet they continued the arrangement anyway—not because they expected results, but because they enjoyed buggering each other. The husband is mad at first, but this is Showtime, baby, so he eventually comes around to the idea and gets involved himself.

Anyway, I don’t think any of this music actually came from that particular movie. As for the rest of the tracks on this mix, I have no idea when, where, or even if they ever appeared in a Showtime softcore drama or hardcore adult film, but they certainly sound like they should have.

Volume 1 of this ’80s adult film music series is the Miami album: cocaine and sex-fueled excess--the sun is setting on this golden age of ’80s adult entertainment. Everyone is indulging in a little too much of everything, and the party is beginning to teeter on the edge of an overdose.

Stay tuned for the companion piece, the Malibu album...

  2. These hand curated albums are great! I recently came across the late 90’s, series of The Mood Mosaic series (relevant to this blog) on the Butterboy’s Compilation blog and when I looked it up elsewhere I found another more recent series but this time it was a band by that name—especially in streaming services. Some of the albums are named the same with the same song list but claim to be the artist. Despite the act, they look a lot like AI rip-offs of an otherwise decently respected physical comp album series. All this to say, it’s great to have your hand curated content that spotlights and honors the original artists and history. Thanks!
