Terry Funk - Great Texan (1984)


From the Japanese disco beats of the titular track 'Great Texan', complete with horn section, back-up singers and an amazing bridge (where Terry soulfully croons "Sometimes I feel so sad..."), to mournful 80's ballad 'Touch Your Heart', to 'Change Your Mind', a funky tale of failed romance (in which Terry seems to impersonate the vocal styling of Kermit the Frog), to a smooth jazz tribute to Tokyo's night life in 'Roppongi' and the bizarrely rebellious 'We Like to Rock', this is a true album for the ages. Masterpiece is a word that gets thrown around lightly these days, but while this is a barely concealed attempt to cash in on Terry's soaring popularity in the 80's, with little relation to the man or the reason for his fame, like Macho Man's 'Be a Man', like Hulk Hogan's 'Hulk Rules, Terry Funk's 'Great Texan' transcends it's beginnings to become something truly special. Bravissimo, signore Funk.

Does this REALLY top Macho Man's "Be A Man" album?

Top 5 current WWE RAW angles:
5. CM Punk vs CM Punk fans
4. THREE MAN BAAAAND BAYBAAAAY
3. Antonio Cesaro vs America
2. International Airstrike (I just learned they had a name, what the fuck?) vs a multitude of less talented tag teams who will all get shots before they do
1. Overly Attached Daniel Bryan
Click to expand...

This is an acceptable assessment, wait, International Airstrike?! I'll assume that would be Car Stereo.
I'd move 3MB over Cesaro myself.

Hey remember when Wade Barrett was open for business? ah yes, they sure took that one somewhere.

Nah, but to be fair, Macho Man sounds like he's actually trying. I'm not sure what was on Terry's mind, other than money, lol.

International Airstrike is apparently the official unofficial name for Kidd/Gabriel (though I prefer their more unofficial name: Hot Cops)

As far as official tag team rankings it goes:
1. Hell No
2. Hot Cops
3. 3MB
4. Rhodes Scholars
5. Car Stereo
6. Mr. Nose Days Off and Darren O'Neil: The Million Dollar Players
7. Usos
8. The Carlito Colon Tribute Band

But I basically love every single team on this list and I could make arguments for any of 2-7 to change places.

This time last year if you would have told me that WWE would have a full tag team division with eight decent teams actually on television in a year's time I would probably laugh in your face.

They also have The Ascension on NXT.

yeah but up to he got unmasked, he was a really awesome character, even if he started acting funny and self aware, he was still awesome cause he was big and had a great outfit and mask.

Now he's just boring and has a terrible mask and is in terrible angles.

Have you seriously regressed back into this gimmick? First, you loved Kane, then you hated him. Did you learn nothing when you got kicked out of WrassleGAF?

I saw that PPV live. My child mind didn't know what to think.

You know sometimes I wonder if kids hate heels like I used to as a kid.

Must be weird to have been there live to see the debut of such an off-putting stupid gimmick that even as a kid you could recognize how ridiculous it was and would never work. Then 20+ years later and the Undertaker is still around.

HAHA yeah that was the same PPV! I had seen him before though, he was in wcw as one of the Skyscrappers. "Oh hey, it's that guys from the Skyscrappers! But he's scary now!"

It's all about those double first names in WWE these days, WWE can use these greats if they'd like.

Jimmy Roger
Fred Samuel
Harry Luke

Though if they want something more dynamic I can join the rest of you with such corkers like...
Reginald Whaler
Bartholomew Brannigan
Hershel Douglaston

Maybe Laserfrog should (since he's a Limey) fire up WWE13 and do his own fed, the Proper Gentlemen Tussles Federation and use all these great names in between tea breaks.
