In El Paso, Roger (Lou Davis) is cleaning house and tosses a bucket of water out the window, drenching Diego (Guillermo Ricardo), the gardener. Roger apologizes, but there is some kind of problem communicating. But they do manage to communicate well enough once Diego pulls his cock out, and Roger jumps (literally, out the window) at the chance to get at it. Fantastic oral and anal sex here. – The Gardener and the Rug Man

Both guys are amazing and the scene is so hot
I believe that the bearded guy in the photos was Sam Benson who was a bartender at The Detour. Guillermo was an occasional customer at The Detour.
Ahhh Silverlake…
Guillermo At the Detour? I would have passed out! He is so HOT!
There has been some posting about music playing during porn scenes, and one (or two, it sounds like it may be 2 songs spliced back to back) of my favorites are all in Spanish, but I have NO idea who is singing, or what they are singing about. Initially I think there is a song about a young secretary, as Guillermo is walking with the six pack, and driving to the jobsite, and then there’s the Mariachi? Banda? Salsa? music that plays as Lou is being fucked silly by Guillermo (his grunts and moans over the singing are just HOT). Always wondered who is signing and the names of the songs, as well as English translation of the lyrics. If anyone can post this, it would be AWESOME.
I’ve been involved in some of the porn music discussions, both here and over at reddit, and someone has created as detailed a listing of the three Gage ‘working man’ films as I’ve ever seen. For the scene in question, based upon his notes:
– starting around 49 minutes there’s unknown music from a Spanish language radio station for about 30 seconds
– then there’s a song (also unknown) with lyrics about ‘yo soy un muchacho joven’ that plays until 51:25
– followed by about a minute and a half of a guitar solo by someone
– then there’s a song called Michaela by a band called Toro, from about 53 minutes to 54 minutes
– then a song called Quitate La Mascara by Ray Barretto, from 54 minutes until I presume the scene ends at about 58 minutes
These times are based on a fuller length version of the film than I believe I’ve ever seen, but seem to occur during the gardener / rug man scene. There’s a recent post at the subreddit ‘vintagegayvids’ that goes into more detail, apparently even shazam wasn’t able to identify some of the unknown songs. But the guy who posted this came up with a lot of the music himself, either by recognizing it or else using shazam or a similar app. If you’re on reddit look for the post talking about the music in the Gage trilogy to see the full notes.
If someone were able to get hold of Joe himself that may produce as complete a track listing of the audio as anyone could possibly get, though I haven’t tried and wouldn’t know where to start looking for contact info. Also not even sure he’d want to be bothered with the request but you never know.
Joe is probably unreachable these days, he shut down his website, and even his gmail account (or the one I had, anyway); i doubt he’d remember a soundtrack from 45 years ago! I know some stuff was purposeful, and he also had the theme for the trilogy as an original composition, but I would bet money that the music during this sequence was random Spanish radio…
Yes but he may have taken detailed notes, I could see the possibility of that anyway. And during his break from directing porn (early 80s to early 00s) he fathered two sons, at least one of whom was involved in creating music for his Titan / etc. studio movies, from what I read somewhere. If there are notes that exist and could be posted somewhere (as a public service kind of thing, since the trilogy are probably among the most notable gay films from the ‘golden age’ of the 70s) that would be awesome. I remember someone commenting here about his website being shut down, it was pretty much just a collection of amateur clips as I remember it, along with some links where you could order his films or scenes along the top of the page.
“Yes but he may have taken detailed notes” – yeah, i concede it is possible, I just still argue very very unlikely – and that he kept them for 40 years??? While many of our favorite directors from the 70’s tried to make a product better than the simple one off loops, I really doubt many, or any, were keeping notes for posterity! But, who knows, maybe Gage has “gone dark” to finally write that book we’ve all been hoping he’d write.
Gosh, I hope so! I’d love to read that. Can you imagine?
