“erotic song material ... during the 1920’s and 1930’s ... were sold openly, ... as “race records,” with a separate sequence of catalog numbers, ... in Negro communities. These “dirty blues,” as they were known, ... added up to scores – perhaps hundreds – of tittles.”

p. 81

“The so-called “party records” ... consisted of off-color songs and ... night club routines. Originally they were sold under the counter, and as a rule they carried no label or catalog number designation.” [“Just one company, Fax Records (a subsidiary of Adam, one of the major “men’s” magazines), devotes itself entirely to this kind of material” (p. 299, n. 8:7).]

p. 82

“ “erotic film” is most commonly known in the United States as “stag film,” or among college students, who make up a large part of the viewing audience, as “skin flicks.” Their characteristic features are open sexual activity of all kinds”.
