In the video era, we have 4 to 10 hour compilations as a standard marketing gimmick for generic of recycled porn. In the Golden Age this was one of the early examples of this phenomenon, though sometimes released theatrically (IMDb claims this is a direct-to-video title).
Some of the footage is quite familiar, especially that spotlighting superstars like John Holmes. But Palmer's voice-over narration earns high marks whenever she singles out some obscure starlet, obscure because she rarely received screen credit (Lisa Sue Corey and Liz Eldridge, for example). Film history could use more of this type of annotation.
Palmer pats herself on the back for use of interesting music as an element of her cinema, though one example of same is merely a ripoff pastiche of the Bee Gees' hit "Staying Alive". My favorite superstar scene chronicled here is Paul Thomas singing "If wishes were horses" and humping the great Laurien Dominique in "Fantasyworld", worthy of a mainstream film. Though Bob Chinn gets a thank you in the end credits, Ms. Palmer unfortunately seems to take all the credit even though she didn't direct most of her productions.
