Before he became famous as a wrestling manager and personality, the Mouth of the South Jimmy Hart was a member of the 60s-early 70s rock pop group The Gentrys. Here is Hart and the Gentrys in a rare film appearance, performing their song "Spread It On Tight" in the 1967 beach party ripoff It's a Bikini World.

The film isn't all that good and isn't anywhere close to the quality of the better Beach Party movies. The only reason I taped it off TCM way back in 2012 was because I knew the Gentrys were in it for a bit and the wrestling fan in me wanted to see pre-wrestling Jimmy Hart.

Since YouTube lacks a quality clip in the full 2.35:1 CinemaScope widescreen aspect ratio It's a Bikini World was shot in, here it is.
