While Champion is the artist most connected to Jim Stryker, at least two other names have been attached to his career, Vulcan (Tony Guyther) and Jay Weissberg.

Jim Stryker is one of the premiere physique models of all time. From a well-to-do family, it’s not clear how Mr Stryker got his first gig. After a negative first experience with Vulcan Studios, he worked only for Walter James Kundzicz.

Jim Stryker — beefcake model of the '60s — was one of the world's finest guys. Said to have been introduced to Rock Hudson at a party before the two retired to a private room with very thin walls, he was also in-demand in the beefcake mags of his era. (From BOY CULTURE blog)

Not a music but sort of a "spoken word" one, by one of the most popular "models" of physique magazines of the mid-1950's and early 1960's, Jim Stryker. The very amateur "dialogue" (and delivery) was fairly suggestive, considering the times, and I think it was certainly intended for the listener to "read things into" what he says. Stryker was mostly known for photos of him in "Young Physique," "Demi-God," and Champion publications. One interview I've read with one of his photographers said Stryker was bisexual, and that he lost track of him in the 1970's, when Stryker had a wife and family. So, this was a six-minute talking "ad" for his modelling work.
