The new DVD will feature a unique “shoot” interview with Jimmy Hart, all about aspects of his musical career. It promises to cover Hart’s time with The Gentrys in the 60’s with discussion on touring with Dick Clark, touring with the Beach Boys, and other stories on the road.
Working with Jerry Lawler on his albums, writing music for Memphis Wrestling, then all things music in the WWF and WCW will be on there too. You’ll hear about the songwriting process, getting demos approved by Vince McMahon, and what it was like recording vocals with Shawn Michaels, Honky Tonk Man and Hulk Hogan!
As you saw in the trailer, intertwined throughout the interview as a bonus will be intimate performances from Jimmy. For the DVD, he sings his favourite songs that he’s written over the years. “Together” (Macho Man & Elizabeth’s wedding song), “Eat Your Heart Out Rick Springfield”, “All American Boys” and “Rap Is Crap” to name a few.

I was really surprised to discover that Jimmy Hart had yet to be inducted into the WWE HoF. Considering that he turns 70 on New Year’s Day, he looks great, I’d still like to see it before something unfortunate happens. He was part of what I consider the “Golden Era” of managers, the 1980’s. You had Freddie Blassie, Johnny Valiant, The Grand Wizard, Arnie Skaaland, Mr Fuji, Elizabeth, Captain Lou Albano, Jimmy Hart and of course, the King of The Mountain (at least in my opinion) Bobby Heenen.
First time I watched the trailer I couldn’t quit laughing but I watched it two more times and thought it was cool. I may get it because of growing up with these entrance themes.
I remember the first time I found out that “Keep on Dancing” was a Jimmy Hart song. I looked it up on YouTube to find out if I had heard the song before and I was shocked to find out it was a song I heard many times on the oldies radio station.
Thanks for the review and info of something non wwe or TNA really appreciate it. Some of my favorite DVD are non mainstream discs (Hereos of World Class, Rodman down under, XWF, AWF and the Chyna porn tape…JK).
Not too interested in this but it’s definitely cool to see it profiled on the site. Nice to see different DVDs in addition to the regular wwe/tna releases.
No hate but the two comments you’ve left are frankly spreading hate. I think it looks quite interesting and well produced, or I wouldn’t write an article on it. 🙂

“All American Boys”! One of my all-time fav entrance songs. That song was a big part of the success of the Rougeau heel turn.

He was inducted in 2005.

Not only.is jimmy hart one of the best managers ever (I’d say only Heenan was better) but hes one of the nicest people I’ve met, famous or not.
Pretty cool. Quite a few songs there that Ididn’t know he wrote.

This looks like a very slick and unique shoot interview.
