"Wicked" Wilson Pickett (of course).
An argument that the bad guy wasn't so much Walter O'Malley as it was Robert Moses. But boy, a lot of people in Brooklyn blamed O'Malley:
You are in a room with Hitler, Stalin, and Walter O'Malley; and you have a gun with two bullets. So who do you shoot?
And, of course, the Dodgers fans would say: You shoot O'Malley twice.
I think Kathleen Madigan is very funny and in this 3.5 minute clip she introduced me to the practice of noodling.
