Right before the holidays, I was lucky enough to appear on Patrick Palmer’s seminal JizzTalking.com podcast for his final show of 2023 – and what an evening it was!
In addition to his army of terrific fans (loved meeting some of them and definitely enjoyed their questions and memories), some of my old adult colleagues and dear friends showed up to participate in what became a memorable and welcome wave of nostalgia I’ll remember for many years to come.
From the episode description: “What a way to round out 2023 with a visit from the iconic Amber Lynn on our 12/17/2023 show, our season finale! Amber has been around for what seems like forever and she did not disappoint. A big crowd on hand to chat up Amber, including a few “notable” guests — Sharon Mitchell, Jon Martin, Richard Pacheco, Micky Lynn, Lorenzo and Eric Edwards. We even got to meet her dog, Little G as well. This show went well over our one hour time, but worth every minute. Again a huge thank you to Amber for making time to make our season finale the best!”
I especially enjoyed talking about my brother, Buck Adams, with Micky Lynn – and was so happy that my beloved friend, Sharon Mitchell, took time out to join us too. Not to mention getting to speak with Richard, Eric, Jon and others after so many years. I did not expect to see all the blasts from my past who dialed into the Zoom, and it meant the world to me.
Obviously, as I was the main guest, I’m going to want to tell you what a great watch this is. But, seriously – any and all fans of the golden age of adult cinema will thoroughly enjoy this wonderful group conversation – there’s a reason Patrick was nice enough to let it go way over the scheduled time.
Please enjoy it, let me know what you think in the comments, and thanks again to Mitch, Micky, the boys and Patrick for participating in what may have been my favorite 90 minutes of 2023!
John Holmes was the undisputed King of Porn until his untimely death on March 13, 1988 at the age of 43. I worked with “Johnny Wadd” in four adult films, memories of which I’ll share below, and I’d like to think we became friends as well as costars.
Holmes’ death had a profound effect on the adult film industry as it had lost one of its key figures as it struggled to establish itself during the early years.
His unique and charismatic performances made him a fan favorite, and his absence left a void that was difficult to fill.
With Holmes no longer active in the industry, other performers tried to step into his shoes, but none could truly replicate his success and influence. This created an opportunity for new stars to emerge and for the industry to evolve in different directions. His legacy, however, cannot be denied.
Amber Lynn’s Movies/Scenes with John Holmes Click the movie titles for more information and to watch these classic scenes for yourself. There’s no need to take my word for John’s contributions to the adult industry!
1.Body Shop (1984) – My scene with John took place in a Jacuzzi, and fans frequently mention it to me as one of their favorites. I vividly remember that the first time I laid eyes on his legendary penis, its size left me stunned and speechless!
The movie was directed by Henri Pachard and produced by VCA Pictures. It features a star-studded cast including myself, Taija Rae, Sharon Mitchell, and Joey Silvera and revolves around the story of a mysterious body shop where customers’ desires are fulfilled in the most sensual and erotic ways. Pachard’s direction and the exceptional performances by the cast make “Body Shop” a must-watch film for adult movie enthusiasts.
2. The Devil in Mr Holmes (1987) – I worked with both John Holmes and Tracy Adams in this film, and it was hands-down one of the hottest scenes I have ever shot. She was a huge crush of mine which came across on film every scene. Traci and I played German Tourists who encountered John, and I’ll leave the rest to your imagination.
It was directed by Giorgio Grand and stars John Holmes, Erminio Bianchi Fasani, Tracey Adams, myself and Karin Schubert. The story revolves around the character Robert, played by John, who faces personal struggles and finds pleasure in watching others engage in sexual activities.
3. Dickman and Throbbin (1986) – Talk about a fun set! John Holmes and Tom Byron starred with me in this hilarious spin on Batman and Robin in a scene that still brings me laughter today. Who doesn’t want to take a spin in the sheets with a superhero?
The movie holds a place in history as one of the very first porn parodies and was directed by Jerome Tanner. The film stars Tom Byron and John Holmes as the titular characters, who portray a duo known as SEXOCRISTS, who have the ability to transform frigid women into sex-craving individuals. It also featured Amber Lynn, Joanna Storm, and Keli Richards as some of the young ladies “rescued” by our intrepid heroes.
4 . The Rise of the Roman Empress (1987) – This was a memorable shoot, and not just because it was lensed in Rome, Italy. John Holmes, Cicciolina and myself starred in the adult industry take on a historical epic. It was John’s last movie before announcing he had contracted HIV. I was floored upon learning this, as were many of us girls, because I was dangerously unprotected.
Directed by Riccardo Schicchi and produced by Paradise Video, the film stars Cicciolina (Ilona Staller), a renowned porn star and eventually even an elected politician, as the Empress. It also featured myself, Christoph Clark and Tracy Adams.
5. Rub Down (1986) – Memorable for me due to the number of scenes and costars I had. I got to perform, over 4 scenes, with John, Jerry Butler, a G/G with Bunny Bleu, Kimberly Carson and Harry Reems.
The movie revolves around a character named Gail, who is fired by her terrible employer, Bixby, after she refuses to give in to his sexual advances.
John’s Diagnosis and More Controversy What made this sad news even worse, is that John knew he had it when we last worked together. Gratefully, the universe protected me, and after several tests I was cleared with a full bill of health.
Another notorious controversy surrounding John Holmes was his involvement in the infamous Wonderland Murders in 1981. Holmes became a key figure in the investigation due to his association with the Wonderland Gang, a group involved in drug trafficking, and the gang perpetrated a violent home invasion where four people were brutally murdered. Although John was initially implicated in the murders, he struck a plea deal and testified against his former associates, which resulted in reduced charges and a shorter prison sentence. This event tarnished Holmes’s reputation and marked a turning point in his life for the remaining seven years of his short life.
John would eventually pass away from his disease and, despite the betrayal I felt at the time – the indelible mark he left on the world of porn will remain forever. Some of the reasons are good, and some less so, but John C. Holmes is remembered and a frequently mentioned part of popular culture to this day.
“Mitch” has been my guiding light. My Eskimo. Such an amazing and important woman in my life whose friendship I’ve treasured for decades.
From those early days in the adult industry… right through to my path to sobriety. She’s always been there and I love her, dearly.
We recently got together for the first time in many moons, and you never know – you may just see her on an upcoming Rock-N-Sexxxy-Uncensored episode!
Stay tuned for more details on her potential appearance, and in the meantime you can have a look at the latest RNSU shows since we officially rebooted the podcast in May, 2022.
I’m very excited to be back in the host seat, the upcoming lineup is red hot, and hope fans will enjoy being along for the ride.
Have a question you’d like me to ask Sharon Mitchell during the future podcast? Please leave it as a comment and I’ll see what I can do. 😉
As promised here is part 2 of my very favorite female co-star list. If you missed it, be sure to have a look at part 1. I’ve been having a great time working on this list and hope you’ve enjoyed reading it just as much. Also, be sure to check out my new Amber Lynn’s Favorite Costars gallery – which I’ve just launched to add further content to the main list!
Jeanna Fine A friend during our time in the industry, I was also Jeanna Fine‘s first girl/girl costar in 1986’s She Comes in Colors. If her amazing body, enthusiastic performances and deep, sexy voice weren’t enough, Miss Fine never stopped impressing me with all the ways she changed her style over her 2+ decades in Adult. And every new look was as scorching hot as the previous version. We also had a lot of fun working together, for the last time (so far) in 2002’s No Man’s Land: Legends.
Nina Hartley Whether considering her looks, unbelievable posterior, generous nature in terms of sex education or her longevity as a relevant industry personality – Nina Hartley’s impact and legacy in Adult cannot be denied. It’s even better when you got to work with her, as I did in this funny clip from 1989’s Battle of the Titans where we try to verbally one-up each other before the film’s action scenes get started. Our girl/girl scene in 1986’s Getting L.A.’d was one of the best times I ever had on a set. I’ve also appeared more recently on her terrific website, Nina.com, and you can tell her Amber sent you. Never a dull Nina-moment, and she always leaves me with a smile!
Sharon Mitchell In possession of one of the hottest… let’s call it “sexual auras”… I’ve ever encountered, Sharon Mitchell and I spent so much time together through the 80s that we collective became known in the industry as the “Toxic Twins”, and our girl/girl scene in 1986’s Hollywood Harlots was a mind-scrambler. Her work regarding sexual health and regular testing for performers was absolutely groundbreaking, and everyone in the business owes her a debt of gratitude to this day. Sharon Mitchell, I love and salute you.
Teri Weigel You know her, you love her, she’s Teri Weigel. A former Playboy Bunny who went on to take the scene by storm, Teri’s incredible physique and glamor girl looks were matched only by her bubbly personality. She was among my closest friends and the scene we did together along with Jeanna Fine in 2002’s No Man’s Land: Legends (Nina Hartley was also in the movie) is among my all time favorites of the last three decades. There’s a behind the scenes clip from that set in the Amber Lynn Videos section of this site which I highly recommend. Teri and I also toured the feature dance circuit together under the name “T&A”. Love you, Teri!
That was a lot of fun to write and reminisce over. What do you think of my 8 choices? It wasn’t easy to select just eight, so don’t be surprised if there’s eventually a part three (or even four). If you have any questions about these ladies, or any other feedback, please make sure you’re on the post’s actual page then – leave a comment.
And definitely don’t forget to check out part 1! Hope everyone had a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
