Porn legend Jamie Gillis dies

[Techman]

I just came across this sad news from the porn world, Jamie Gillis, one of the pioneers of porn has passed away from melanoma at the age of 66. His movie, The Opening of Misty Beethoven, is a classic.

Sad news indeed. Jamie was a pioneer of the sex movie business, having had parts in most major productions back in the 70's & 80's. Quite a coincidence to hear about these news now since this morning, i did a search of 'Jamie Gillis' on a porn site, looking for vintage porn loops. John Holmes, Jamie Gillis, John Leslie, Paul Thomas, Eric Edwards, Joey Silvera.....all legends!!!

I remember seeing The Opening of Misty Beethoven. I thought it was great at the time. At least it made an attempt to be a movie and erotic - not just porn without any reason.

He was a great porn actor. One of my fav scenes of all time was with him and Nina Hartley. He fucked her anally and coated her face with his spunk. Not quite in Peter North territory but it was quite a cumshot. RIP.
