[venomlegions]

Dennis Parker aka, porn star Wade Nichols. The only porn star to start in porn, then hit it in disco and then star on an ABC soap called "Edge of Night"... I'm impressed...

[gilbertblaze]

@venomlegions very sad to find out that he committed suicide after finding out he had AIDS

[teamchouette]

Looking for acquaintances/informations other than what can be found online about Dennis Parker for a documentary project - If relevant feel free to contact me through my profile. Cheers.

[wolfgangshroeda]

[1969atam]

I played this 3 times now and it's super-catchy! Love the stomping beat and wailing background vocals. The guy looks like an american version of Freddie Mercury!! That song appears on Disco Discharge - Disco Fever U.S.A. Out now on Harmless Records! I got the whole series! Shit hot stuff whether your straigt or gay! It's great music for all the family!! Get it!!

[PERUTECHNO]

[coldfreshair]

[coldfreshair]

[rps8622]

great Jacques Morali production! He was the best!

[PeteyM1972]

I want to see that robin williams show at 10:00

[rich107s]

I met this guy at max's in the early 1980's and he was complaining a to a freind next to him at the bar about a cold he could not seem to ever get rid of.Looking back now, that is really sad. If the poor guy only knew.That 80's were a bad time for a lot of person from nyc.When it showed up..

[BenPanced]

Gawd, I remember seeing him on Merv Griffin or Mike Douglas or somesuch when this was out. He wore the same costume and did the same hip wiggles.  And the same bad lip sync.

[herbertkearse]

I liked this song. He loojed like an old classmate of mne. He wasn't

[Luraka1978]

I have it on vynil, long version ... it's just so good to hear this song. I love it.

[dibbledot]

as a 13yr old boy he was my first crush.... i loved him as Det. Derek mallory on EDGE OF NIGHT and was devastated to learn he killed himself... i still think to this day he is 1HELLOVA HOT LOOKIN DUDE!

[soulmusicat]

♥

[Durchflutung]

i love the presure and groove of the old disco tracks (in the middle it sounds a bit gay ), anyway cool track

[TheTooz72]

Anybody know what show this is from and what yer it is from?

[chuckcollins]

My guess is that it is from HBO's Video Jukebox and the year was 1979.

[btwentwo]

Always searching never perching!

One of the best, I sang the part where he takes it up high about a thousand times last week.

[Craimer123]

Here´s my man

[tadziosquest1960]

dennis and i dated for 6 yrs,it was my pic on his wall.we were a fixture at the eagles nest. this was all b4 hes got famous. He worked as an artist at simplicity pattern co on madison ave,2 blocks from our apt, and if ya really wantsome new ,he paid $75 a month for that apt on a 5th floor w/0 at 25 east 38th st,did all the built in himself.

[MaxMikeLatino]

Wow! Even the bird is gay too.

[coldfreshair]

@MaxMikeLatino LOL such a sweet poetic humouristic soulful comment

[leoox1961]

He was definitely cool. thanks for the info hugoanchannel.

[sandytheslayer]

Mmmm this is delicious! Perfect for the Fendi fashion show!

[JeffMitchell]

It was actually, part of the Fendi Show about one year ago. How d'you know that?

[sandytheslayer]

I saw it on youtube! Wonderful performance by Herr Lagerfeld and his models!

[detagirl]

You mean Karl lagerfeld :)

[sandytheslayer]

Herr means Mr in his native German :)

[detagirl]

Thanks good to know!! : )

[barzouf94]

I remember my best friend ( gay male) use to fantasize on him in the late 70's, gosh we were just kids then. Too bad he died too young. R.I.P. Dennis.

[JaneAstron]

I dated Dennis briefly around the time this darling video was made. He was super into birds back then. We'd often drive upstate to go birding and he just tickled me with all sorts of bird facts. It was so like Dennis to love everyone.

[bozron]

Wild. I had sex with him once and hung out with him a bit. I'm a guy (I'm assuming you are female from the screen name). He was open to everything. Fascinating man. Complex personality and totally charismatic. And a sweet soul. Glad you spent some time with him. Did he still have his motorcycle?

[Starsky5000]

WoW. What A Story!!!!

[barringer82]

which Muppet was he again?

[hugosanchannel]

he was a pornstar under the name Wade Nichols, but he commited suicide after diagnosed with AIDS

[selmansax]

und video discoshen barnots 1978? Und pushen miner cantoble disco superstarzen.

[clodgemaster]

Its Christian Bale back in the day when he wasn't a dick

[MDSJR67]

Way cool video!

[leoox1961]

I like it, he's cool.

[ThePanconortigas]

le da color jajaja

[RHAPSODYKAT]

You Tube meets Cheez Whiz!! The only thing missing in this vid were Charlie's Angels!! LOL..I swear this guy was the first one cut at the Village People auditions...but at least he tried hard.

[vj512]

love the track - now when i saw this even more :D

one of the best ever

[parkerbelkin]

URK!!! Oh, excuse me, I puked a little bit!!!

[MegaHansA]

So dramatic and so gay... I love it!

[online007man]

Porno-disco at it´s very best (John Holmes doing the Travolta thing?) .-)

[Teatimesan]

Jonny Polyester did a dance remix of this and I'm looking for it, so if anyone knows of a complilation cd with it on, please to let me know ;)

[FistofViewing]

The song is pretty good. You can even pick up some theme tune references Night Rider and Buck Rogers to name a couple.

But the video - it's shocking hahahahaha.

Great stuff.

[frontosa777]

I just got the 12" of this on Casablanca and I've been playing it non-stop! What an amazing, beautiful, haunting track ! ! !

People love it everywhere I play it out here in NYC.

RIP Dennis.

[pabloplato]

lucky! what a score! i have been looking for anything from him on casablanca but had no luck yet :(

i'm surprised, as casablanca had pretty good distribution. :/

[cedricfonk]

Very true!! I was lucky enough to find this on vinyl in it's 12" format. But 'New York By Night' is not available anywhere!! One just has to keep on looking!!

[pabloplato]

i eventually found a copy on Able records, 1979, from canada. 8 minutes of soaring with dennis on the a side, with new york at night on the b side for 7 minutes. awesome!! search for it!

[Tristanrex]

Sulke Thermnommery - you all Looked and are now among the blessed!

[Robotman]

what's the city in this video?? also epic track!!!

[Starsky5000]

I'm curious also. What city is filmed in this video?

[diuga1]

Boise, Idaho.

[bozron]

New York. You can see the Empire State Building in one shot.

[SenatorSwampkitty]

This guy reminds me of Uncle Rico from Napeoleon Dynamite

[SenatorSwampkitty]

I dont get why people hate Disco, this is so damn amazing, This song reminds me od Shine On you Crazy Diamond from Pink Floyd

[emotive1591]

I think the jumpsuit, feathered hair, and mustache have more to do with it than the song itself.

[Klimseven]

@SenatorSwampkitty People hate disco because the disco scene effectively killed soul.

[renzoSexyPeople]

moving..fucking amazing

[JaneAstron]

I really feel like this song respects me.

[clodgemaster]

One word: Amazing

No more can be said...

[aandoraa]

me cae que todos los pinches gringos esta re pendejos O_o!!!!!! , but i like the song :)

[pastorios1975]

Yes, Yes, Yes!!!!

[DonJowsey]

lovin this video!! leave me a comment

ANYONE UP? I NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO Mj

[4619286]

i cant watch this video

just moved new area hE

[zipppit89]

without the mustache maybe, but those where the times

[sk8erboialbff]

dennis is a b****

[gpanameno]

this is when tom selleck's mustache decided to get two jobs.

also EPIC chest hair...

[diuga1]

Wrong. Dennis´ was a 70s facial hair...Selleck´s a 80s leftover...

[gpanameno]

either way, both are badass mustaches.

[cavejourney]

Such a HOT man !!!

I had a crush on him when I was in high school.

[sk8erboialbff]

how could you think he's hot. we were gonna sing Kelly Clarkson-Breakaway in the kareoke contest but the teachers thought this suckish song would be better. You must be like a blind. that man is not hot!

[bozron]

Yeah, Dennis was a blast. I met him one night back in the '70's down at the old Eagle's Nest, hopped on the back of his bike and hit his midtown apartment for a wild and woolly evening. I do remember a huge picture of a blond on his wall that he said was his boyfriend. . .Thanks for posting the video - never knew it existing. Brings back memories . . .

[djmatnoll]

This guy lived the ultimate closeted actor double life except it was a triple life. He was porn performer, appearing in both straight and gay flicks, an actor using the name Wade Nichols, played police chief Derek Mallory on Edge of Night for years and was also the Dennis Parker of Casablanca records fame scoring internationally with this brilliant and warped leftfield disco cut. FLY DENNIS FLY!!!!

[RAKANKAN]

Just Beautiful!!! - I remember listening to a Mix from W.B.L.S FM - N.Y In 1979 and I could not figure out who sang this song until like 20 years later -Wow!! I remember that they mix it with "At Midnight" by T-Connection. - Thanks for posting this great Video.

[CultureWithoutBrders]

Awesome track. RIP Dennis.

[tadziosquest1960]

I dated deenis for 6 yrs bk in the mid seventies,i i can tell u he was way beautiful.

unfortunately he took up w jaque morreli,and that was the begginning of his downfall,very sad.

[Starsky5000]

Hi, its you. I remember reading this on some website about Dennis Parker about a year ago. I guess it you who said you dated him back in the mid 70s. Must've been fun times back then. I'm sorry he passed away. Very Tragic i know.

[sk8erboialbff]

llike you dated dennis!

[tadziosquest1960]

Yes i did, My name is Skip and if you knew anything about Dennis personally you would know me as well

[bootslavenyc]

an excellent artist .... i never knew him ... though, would have regularly been at the eagle and / or spike during that time frame .... always wondered what happened to him ... did a bit of investigation and read of his suicide ... the early 80's were a really bad time for all of us .... bootslavenyc

[chris24david]

wow... i'm sure you could write a book !

[heatherswanson]

He's got rhythm AND killer eyesight.

[hoobness]

i just found my new idol. and a halloween costume.

[diuga1]

Lol.

[Uggabugga220]

That was........... AWESOME!!!!!

[Lunnazull]

hell yeah am in love with song !!

[westeyes1111]

gets me rock hard

[gagbro]

Looks like Freddy Mercury?

besides his mustache, I see no other similarity, least of all his vocal talents.

You might as well have stated that he looked like Hitler, and NO NO NO, I didn't compare Dennis to Hitler.

[jer1983]

why do you compare Dennis to Hitler?

[gagbro]

I don't think he looks like neither freddy or adolf.Wnen judged by looks orr vocal talents. Your second guessing, shows aspects of your way of thinking, not mine.

[jer1983]

Is it because of the Eagle?

[MassimoConnolli]

nah, more his fascist tendencies

[iksuhp]

He kinds looks like Freddie mercury

[tailagent]

SUBLIME. I LOVE IT !!!

[barriobajaj]

I can smell the poppers! Mr Parker filled out that Silver Lame suit quite well. RIP Dennis.

[discomaniac107]

thank you for sharing  I loved Dennis Parker and never knew their was a video. I love all those artists that was on the best label in the world in my opinion Casablanca. discomaniac

[NoGDM]

MAN This is TOO COOL!!!

[luispedrolicea]
