Thanks for posting this. I live in Austin but had not heard of this guy. Another bit of history to absorb. (Did you know that he was the narrator in the 1974 Texas Chainsaw Massacre?)
Oh, and great music too.
I always thought the narrator of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was John Laroquette?
You're thinking of the 2003 remake. Faulk was dead by then. Go back 30 years before that.
I think we're both right. IMDb shows Faulk as "The Storyteller" in the 1974 version, while Larroquette was the uncredited "Narrator (voice)".
