Chris Pellnat - "Hold Me Now"
The exotic dancer is Sheree North in a 1951 stag film. I found it quite compelling and artful, and when juxtaposed against "wholesome" dancers, it was clear her art transcends the stag film genre and the male gaze. Sheree North later went on to a successful film and television career. All vintage footage is public domain, from the Prelinger Collection on the Internet Archive.
From the album ”Rain,” available on cassette, minidisc on Houdini Mansions records.
