Here’s the single for Hillbilly Jim’s classic song from The Wrestling Album “Don’t Go Messin’ With A Country Boy”.
I like the reflective, content look on Jim’s face on the picture sleeve.
He’s probably content because he just got done having a grueling, exhausting wrestling match with his trusty hound dog Bubba on a soiled mattress.
(eww….).
AManAmongMen.com! I bet that URL… is probably taken.
And I don’t want to know what might be on that site…
Anyway, the B-Side to this masterpiece was Captain Lou Albano’s History Of Music.
As a bonus, here’s Hillbilly Jim singing (well, lip-syncing) the song at the 1986 Slammy Awards:
Eat your heart out, Toby Keith!
One of the best entrance themes ever and one of the most likable gimmicks of all time.
I think Jim is looking at an off-camera Lord Alfred waving his donkey dong to everyone backstage before they shoot the Land of 1,000 Dances video.
I miss the old wrestler sung songs. One of my favorites is The Body Rules sung by Jesse Ventura. That youtube link is still up.
Gosh, I love the drummer in that lip syncing performance, playing God knows what the hell what during a song that doesn’t feature drums at all.
AManAmongMen.com is NOT taken, surprisingly!
Hurry up and register that sucker TODAY!
Perfect for a Regal fanpage.
Bazinga!
Oh the Captain Lou song… I had a childhood friend that would always play the Wrestling Album tape just to hear that Captain Lou bit over and over and nothing else. It didn’t take long before we stopped being friends.
