“When Pat wins at pinball, Jerry has to pay up on their bet. It seemed a good idea before the game began, and Pat certainly turns Jerry on, but Jerry finds the idea a little scary – at first. Soon, however, both young studs are lost in a sex world of their own and steely hard cocks make their demands of passion in a game that no one loses.”
Pat Fulton, and Jerry O’Brien – from the cute short film – Pinball Wizard (1982?) – one of 6 parts from the the Heat Waves collection.
music from Giorgio Moroder, Chase – right? (Originally from the Midnight Express soundtrack) – I think the first 15 seconds-ish may be something else

My music notes for Heat Waves are incomplete and lack specific times, though I did note that the same soundtrack is heard in another Nova collection, Made To Order. That is The Chase where you pinpointed it, my list of songs heard in both films:
Supernature (Cerrone) / The Ultimate Warlord (Warlord) / Dynamite (Karen Young) / San Salvador (Azoto) / Megatron Man (Patrick Cowley) / Cuba (Gibson Brothers) / This Is Hot (Pamela Stanley) / Laser (Laser) / The Chase (Giorgio Moroder) / Rhythm Of The World (Gino Soccio) / It’s A War (Kano) / His Name Is Charlie (Laser) / Cerrone’s Paradise (Cerrone)
For these two films Nova hired someone with a starter DJ kit, the above songs (and possibly a few more) fade in and out on one turntable or another, sometimes coming back for seconds or even thirds. So it makes it hard to do as detailed a breakdown as I like. I’d guess the other songs heard in that clip come from the list above but not sure exactly which ones go where.
Hot scene, The Big Weenie is the other one from Heat Waves that I enjoyed the most.
great list of common NOVA “soundtracks” – I noticed a similar “DJ” spinning in some Trophy Video collections (often, but not always Brentwood loops)
Love the Nova Studio videos.
