Excellent profile! I only know him as Halsted’s lover/co-star but now I know more.
I forgot (or never realized) he was in Abducted, which I love because of my obsession with Dick Trask.
Thanks BJ!
Also, great collection of photos I’d never seen before. I think I had only about 4 pics in his folder. Now I have more!
The 2nd bondage one might have been hotter if his dick wasn’t totally in shadow. Or is it more interesting for that exact reason? “Less is more” or whatever. Certainly, it is realistic.
I did pause contemplating posting it, but good face pic, and sometimes the bottom’s cock is immaterial
Immaterial! Hey! Do I object to that? Nah, it’s true. Ha Ha
When I watched A Night At Halsted’s again not long ago, I couldn’t tell who the guy was working the front desk at the beginning and end of the film. Shorter than Fred, blond, chomping a piece of gum and seemingly spaced out (to the point it was hard for me to tell what he was saying), wonder if that was Joey? It’s not listed on Joey’s gevi page, nor do I think his name was in the movie credits but it could have been him in an uncredited non-sex cameo, since he and Fred were a couple and he likely would have done it for free.
Oh gosh! Totally Joey! I should add that in as “cameo”; how could I have missed that!
I should add this to the full post –
– intro scene, with uncredited Joey
Seems like it was Joey after all, this is a good place for that clip since you devoted a whole post to him.
Zephyr— It was Joey. I have most of all the movies on DVD. I like to spark up a hooter and go back in time.. lol Keep cool!!!
Zepyr– I didn’t see the clip and comment. sorry!! lol
BJ agreed that it was Joey as the desk clerk in A Night At Halsted’s, glad to know you agree. Spark away, that’s the best way to watch porn in my opinion! I just wish it was easier to understand what Joey was saying in that clip, he looks blitzed himself … yeah man, it’s totally far out …
Superb modelling of the Brown Jeans Crotch with the big black belt. He knows exactly how to wear them. I saw a boy showing his casually fat selfish gorgeous Prick walking by the Seine in the 70s, and have never worn anything but brown jeans since. I always bought clothes that were like my sexiest lovers, if I thought the look was that worth working for.
You definitely seem to have lived a little, Mr. P! One always looks forward to reading your comments on these posts and the magnificent men featured therein. You remind me of so many of my bon vivant, dissolute metropolitan friends, many of them long-gone… so it’s good to see one of them still about living that life.
Thank you, that’s very kind.
Worse, I’m still living it as long as my Prick works.
It is true what you say, most from that period are gone, or they don’t continue to live the rake’s life. I can’t think of anything better.
maybe I should edit original to include this pic from Halsted’s short-lived Package magazine
I may be a little bit late adding to this discussion about Joey Yale. I think that it’s almost common knowledge that Joey appeared in “The Private Pleasures of John Holmes” as a bottom that John Holmes has his way with him. In the premiere issue of “INCHES MAGAZINE” in March of 1985 there is an article, almost a memoir of Joey’s experiences with John Holmes. The sex is described in an appealing way as to the moves John sought to seduce Joey with a 14 inch penis and for his part Joey enthusiastically went along with everything that John wanted from him even going so far as to perform his famous “baseball bat test” which he goes on to describe quite explicitly. Was wondering if anyone ever came across Joey Vale’s writings?
Thanks
this is excellent – thank you! I made this post before I started adding publications, and I just checked out the INCHES article you mentioned – I had kinda dismissed this film years back, and likely sold a VHS copy or two on eBay – but this has me interested in finding it again, and checking it out.
It’s definitely worth checking out. It’s deliciously tacky especially the sound track which is worth it’s own review but the sex between John Holmes and Joey Vale is genuine and lust filled with an emphasis on John’s own penis power over Joey. For many who had known of John Holmes mainly as a heterosexual porno star who went with women it was a shock and surprise to see John Holmes in a homosexual porno film. It was almost impossible to ignore John’s sexual persona so when Joey describes giving John his infamous baseball bat test it’s a moment to remember Joey as a real life up close witness to the majestic power of John Holmes
I love Private Pleasures of John Holmes simply because John actually fucks men. I even have a hard to find photo book of still taken from the movie itself. I really enjoy watching straight porn actors doing Gay porn and having sex with other men.
