The legendary john holmes

The newsstand shop i played video games at had all types of guys running in to by this issue.
Man, the memories! Nothing like spending the whole day over in the corner of a 7-11 or something because they had "your game". Most places wouldn't allow that now cause everybody hates each other. :D

Had he shown up yet when Holmes was around? From the look of some of his stuff, I'd guess he predates most of the current monster dick crowd, but didn't figure he went that far back.
He created the genre kind of even thou he was a monster Back then that was not such a big deal they did not make half the deal they do today about huge guys. I think monster dick and to big for me genre started in late 90s really. I prefer vintage porn in away although it's worse quality and the music over it ruins it sometimes. I think sex is more realistic and passionate and women are not so fake like today screaming like banshee's for 30 minutes lol!

You are 100 percent correct!!
Those were the fucking days.
At my news stand /magazine store where i played arcade style video games, they sold it all from the wall street journal to Chinese, Korean and hispanic newspapers and hardcore porn mags.
Just by me playing the arcade games there i would see and hear all types of people conversing about sex,favorite porn stars,the John Holmes Wonderland murder trial, politics, sports debates ect.
It was an intresting time.
I never told my grandmother or my parents what i had heard there because i knew they'd stop me from going there..LOL

I knew about damn near all of the porn performers of the golden/home video age before i even saw my first porno.

That's the same conclusion I've come to over the years. It rolled in along with reality TV, Britney Spears, wardrobe malfunctions and all that other classy shit. Aside from Holmes and a couple others, all the main top performers, who showed up in everything, would be considered small today and people would turn their noses up at them.

I agree on some of the obnoxious new stuff, but they're spitting porn out so fast and in so many directions now that you can usually weed through the crap and find something else. I think the camerawork in the old stuff bugs me more than the music or picture quality. They pick angles where you can't get a good view and then when they hit something you like, they stay on it for about three milliseconds before flashing over to something else (or to a whole different scene altogether).

Take Care

Yeh it's like anything they push it further and want more and more big cock guy's when John home's died as you said most other guy's where tiny for today's standard's. Only other big cock's by late 80's was Ron jeremy and Peter north and Sean Michael's became a star in the year Holmes died.

Yeh true is 100 times the content nowadays so is load's of shit but also load's of good stuff like GDP is generally hot as fuck IMO! Yeh the music annoy's me I like to hear the women moan and sometime's they film from dopest angles like sometime's it's the women's hip while cock goes in for like 5 min's lol! Cameramen in porn have improved a lot since the 70s and 80s as is more acceptable now so some fairly decent camera crew's do it I guess so improves quality of filming. While back then they probably gave random dude's in area the camera lol!

I have created a thread for forgotten pornstars, a few of them from the 80s

I found a big dick 80s guy called Rick Donovan, he compared his dick with Peter North and he was longer. Check the above link.

But the point is, those other guys were in demand back then and nobody cared that they weren't as big as Holmes. The industry wasn't really starving for other giant dick guys, and his claim to fame was just one niche of the porn industry.

- Don't mean to sound argumentative. I've got a feeling you and I probably agree on most of that stuff. ;)

I agree no one cared back then they just wanted sex on film most of biggest male name's back then where small to average and John holmes filled the monster cock market alone.
 
For some reason I always associated that name with gay porn (or do gay guys just like him?).
He was a gay pornstar in the 80's I believe he did very few scene's his Peter North one being most famous despite Peter North denying it despite it being on the net for all to see lol! Rick Donovan was absolutely huge Agreed like 8.5 real inches but in straight porn no one compared to John IMO till 10 year's after his death with Mandingo coming along.

He is a gay pornstar but he did some solo stuff as well. He just reminds me a bit of John Holmes, same sort of era. John Holmes is mainstream but there are a couple of white guys from the 80s forgotten about but similar length to him.

I would say Steve York and Rick Donovan were both pretty dam huge. I think Dick Ramone was probably John Holmes successor but he did not do many scenes and retired early.
 
There was also a white guy from the 70s who did like 3 scenes, his name was Rod Dumont. One porn actress from the 70s Jody Maxwell said he was the same length as John Holmes. I can't confirm this. It is very rare to find Rod Dumont in a video.
