What is the name of the song and artist?

[The Prototype]

It's a wrestling song from a wrestlers website, it was done by WCW's music producer Jimmy Hart. I haven't been able to find the MP3 version.

Do any of the songs mentioned below by 'jimmy hart' ring a bell???

JH: What happened was many many many years ago, probably before you were born, I was part of a group called "The Gentries." We had a million seller called "Keep on Dancin'," we did all the Dick Clark tours. We did "Hullabaloo Shindig", "Where the Action is," I guess I'm telling my age right now. That lead me to a music career, and that's crazy because that lead me to a wrasslin' career. When I joined Vince (McMahon) many years ago for Wrestlemanias 1-9, I did a lot of the music back then. A lot of people didn't know about that because we kept it kind of hidden behind the scenes. I did all of Honky Tonk (Man)'s stuff back then. "American Made" by Hulk, The Road Warriors theme and (Jimmy "Superfly") Snuka's stuff. And of course at WCW, I did a lot of the themes that you hear the guys come out to. You know (Kevin) Nash and (Scott) Hall and all that stuff. And to this day, you know "Sexy Boy" by Shawn Michaels when he goes to the ring now he still plays the song that me and my partner wrote for him. So that kind of lead me to a musical career. My partner and I, Howard Helm we do all the music now for Acclaim and for all of the Showdown: Legends of Wrestling music that you hear when they're going to the ring.

JH: The Wolfpack song, you know. It's starts off "Wrroooo. Dun, dun DUN, dun. Wolfpack's back…." Yeah we did that for them. We did Disco Inferno's deal and Hulk's "American Made." Just so many of the younger stars we did stuff for them. Without repeating myself too much there's so many things we did for Vince. Earthquake and Typhoon. Terry Funk and Dory Funk. Snuka's. "Sexy Boy" by Shawn Michaels. The Rougeau Brothers. As a matter of fact (Macho Man)Randy (Savage) and Liz' wedding song, that song's been used for three different marriages up there. It's the one for Stephanie (McMahon) and Triple H, they used it on their deal. And then they used it for Uncle Elmer and his wife back then.

Just not the one I have, it's Raven's vrey first WCW theme, not sure what it was called, I found it on the website www.scottlevy.com

On the wcw theme page www.theraveneffect.com/media/sound/themes/index.html

there are 2 jimmy hart songs;
1) 'short but thick'-and that is only .ram document file
2) 'raven'-which allows you to download mp3 zip file (this worked 4 me) 3.08min

[The Prototype]

Short Back Thick is the song I have that I wish to change, I have tried a few times to do it through this program, but it was all warped.

[inthecoldnight]

have you tried a P2P program like winmx or soulseek to find an mp3 version of the song???

[The Prototype]

Yeah, haven't found anything, I once found Raven's 2nd theme (the one he used from the time he joined to the time he left) though recently I haven't found many WCW MP3's on the net.

Well since you have retired you may not get this msg until 2005 sometime.. but i was playing around on the comp and realised that i could change .ram stuff into audio files, if you have 'windows movie maker' you can record your song into audio file, simply open movie maker/got to narrator/click on 'mixer'/hit record/then have realplayer open and play the song you want ('short but thick'),,,, i have also converted it to mp3 using ipod...goodluck.

[Go_The_Mighty_Magpies]

I can pass the message onto him via msn if you like?

[Wild Pegasus]

Alright after trying to play the following as an .mp3 file, my idea failed, I thought I would be smart and save it as a .mp3 file, but that didn't work at all.

[inthecoldnight]

btw. going back to the original question. ipods arent worth the purchase price. the battery's only last about 2 years worth of use before you need a new battery and the battery costs $200 to replace.

[eddies bank balance]

I shall get 2yrs worth and by then they will be smaller have more memory and cheaper,just like mobile phones, computers and the first digital watch....anyway i'm now up to 3,700 songs this includes comedy, a yrs worth of travelling music i reckon and 4GB to go,and i can always update on the road.

so its worth it to me.

[David]

yeah I'm not sure if its really worth it cos I'd have to download all the Linkin Park songs again even though I bought the CDs, cos they dont work on my computer (some copyright thing)
