'Baby Come On' from Sex O'Clock USA

'Baby Come On' from Sex O'Clock USA
1976

One of the greatest disco songs of the 1970s was the track 'Baby Come On,' from the soundtrack to a 'mondo' style documentary, Sex O'Clock USA, released in 1976 by a French director named François Reichenbach.

According to TV Guide,

This French documentary is a valuable window into the so-called Sexual Revolution as it manifested in the U.S. during the pre-AIDS era of the mid-1970s. Drag queens, sex-slave auctions, prostitutes, and sex-workers all have their time before the cameras. Particularly interesting is a discussion held with a male live-sex-show performer in the company of his wife. A few explicitly hardcore moments are shown, and there are numerous simulated sexual encounters in Sex O'Clock, USA.

Porn stars Marc Stevens and John Holmes appear in the 90-minute film.

The soundtrack to Sex O'Clock USA was composed by Mort Shuman.


You can listen to 'Baby Come On' here. I defy anyone not to move when that bass groove kicks in..........

The entire soundtrack to the film is available here.

(I can't find a stream for the film, save for some sites that look really, really sketchy. If I find a legit stream I'll update this post accordingly.)
