Memphis 1981-1982 TV comp

Tape is in GD- quality throughout and runs six hours long. Aside from a few VQ issues, this is one of my favorite tapes, showing guys like Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan in Memphis, early Cornette, some of the Lawler/Kauffman feud and a glimpse of the early years of guys like Bobby Eaton, Terry Taylor, Ricky Morton, Eddie Gilbert & Koko Ware. Jimmy Hart, Bill Dundee, Dutch Mantel and Lance Russell are all excellent as well.

Interview - Stan Lane (Lane explains his motivation for attacking Hart, as he signed a contract to give Hart 10% of his earnings and found a secret ledger that showed Hart was taking 30%. I love this angle! The rest of the First Family comes out and wants answers, and Jimmy Hart is great as the sniveling, obviously lying manager finding whatever excuse he can - this is a must-see!)
