Hello,long time listener, first time post-starter. I was wondering if any of you were familiar with 'dirty' records. I recently borrowed some 45s from a friend and while going through them I came across a white label named 'secretary' in hand written pen. I'm guessing this is how wally and the beav' achieved self gratification? Anyways, has anyone else ever come across anything like this and if so what is known about these? The backing music isn't on the 45 but I thought it made it more interesting...

I'm kinda assuming that half the people buying 101 Strings albums 40 years ago were likely "swingers" in their thirties who weren't affected by the hippies and didn't listen to rock & roll, yet owned every Herb Alpert album in the catalog.
This is all conjecture, but I think that the porno 101 Strings records were aimed at THAT silent-majority crowd.
Nah, any chance you could post this without?
Also, could you please tell me what you're wearing right now?
Or Velvet Talks[/b], you can have that Seka or Vanessa Del Rio flexi. Ooh, succulent.

There are a few different audiences for 101 Strings. When they were on Somerset, it was albums made to be packaged at drug stores, furniture stores, anything BUT where you could find Yahowa 13 and hashish juice. When Alshire Records bought the rights to the name, they continued to release all of those worldly records to Spain and Turkey, and of course Movie hits of 1965, but Al Sherman wanted to make a lot more money with untraditional stuff. He not only had his own label, but for years he ran his own pressing plant (here's what we do, we will set up) and thus had access to various studio musicians. 101 Strings would soon expand from creating classical albums to the trippy astro sounds stuff, to albums released under various names that were essentially the exact same band. Animated Egg, a number of odd quadraphonic albums on Alshire, that disco record, 101 Strings became more tacky throughout the 70's but of coruse those are the ones with the more unusual samples. Plus if you know where to go, you can find string sections to make your music sound just like Mobb Deep[/b].
Anyway, Alshire Records would eventually cash in on every other trend, especially as rock'n'roll became ROCK! and they found that the almighty dollar went to buying what was hip and cool, so if someone came out with an erotic record, so did Alshire. Mason Williams' "Classical Gas", Alshire released a number of albums that were similar. When the Mystic Moods Orchestra started getting attention on the radio and the charts, Alshire wanted to get in touch with that. The thing is, even though 101 Strings had a target audience, those albums sold like crazy, which is why they pop up so frequently. Plus, look at the records. Not only did they do well known songs, but there were at least two brand new songs so that the producer or label could cash in on publishing. Those are the songs that are interesting, because they went out of their way to create something new to add to what they were trying to cash on, and half of the time it's a mess.
I had this on my work computer, I'll see if I can find the OG rip I did of it at home.
why nothing at all...
wow, thanks for that
