to trof : Thank you, as you can guess I have been following the industry for a long time.
"Clip Holders" were big in that era, as they had a lot of footage in 10-20 minute segments made when it was still illegal, and they just threw a bunch together with some narration to try and make a story for cheap. And most loops were silent, so no need for music. Watch Deep Throat, it has a lot of music that is barely changed from an original pop song of the era. Others just stole it, figuring they would never get discovered.
By the mid-1970's, an industry popped up of musicians writing scores, often the same 10 or so musicians. This is why so much in that era all sounds the same (stereotypical "chiki-ba-baw" bass guitar). By the 1980;s it largely became a single guy on a synthesizer.
A lot can be told from a movie, by examining it's production. Multiple scenes with performers that are never seen again in the movie, almost a sure sign it is a "clip holder" production. Also almost no dialogue, or dialogue that does not match the mouth or action. Once again, most loops are silent so they just made up lines at a later date.
There is one you can find in here like that from even later. One segment is Tawny Pearl with 2 guys, and whoever did the voice sounds nothing like her. Even one part where she is a magician, and talking as her mouth is full of cock.

to Trivalleyfunone : The producers never did. But first the copyright owner had to find out they were using their music, then if it was an owned copy or they are only using the music. Then good luck in trying to sue most of them, they used fake names and frequently changed them. Early 70's porn (and this is from 1970, they show theaters in the street scenes playing 2 different movies both released in 1970) was full of this, Stolen music, trying to make a quick buck.
This is also what is known as a "clip holder", where they string a bunch of older stag loops together with only a few scenes filmed for it, a quick and dirty release. And most of the cast (as well as the director) only have this single title to their credits. Even the production company only had this one release, no other movies.
