The songs from Andy Warhol's CAMP

It occurred to me that it might be useful for anybody who was interested in CAMP to have full versions of the songs that the film references (including the repetitious "piano music" with lyrics). 

Here are links:

In Crowd (the piano song), performed by The Mamas and the Papas

Let Me Entertain You, from the 2008 Broadway production of Gypsy


Let Me Entertain You, striptease version, performed in the (second) film version of Gypsy (1993)

You'll Never Get Away From Me, from the Original London Cast recording of Gypsy (1973)

Also, here is a montage of Confidential Magazine covers.  Confidential is the magazine that Jack Smith is ostentatiously reading at the end of the film.  It was one of the first nasty celebrity gossip magazines, and its covers and stories were notoriously lurid.  Kenneth Anger was influenced by Confidential in the writing of Hollywood Babylon, and no doubt stole stories from it.
