could bring me out of retirement....

RIP

Legendary wrestling figure Captain Lou Albano, perhaps best known for
his association with pop singer Cyndi Lauper, died Wednesday,
according to World Wrestling Entertainment.

"Often imitated, never duplicated" and rightfully so, because the
legendary Captain Lou Albano will always be one of a kind. With his
open Hawaiian shirts, outrageous facial hair and trademark rubber
bands hanging from his cheek, Captain Lou may not have looked like
much of a success, but his record speaks for itself.

and the only relevant music part:

Albano also managed and performed with rock group NRBQ, who wrote the
song "Captain Lou" in his honor. Later, the Captain starred in The
Super Mario Bros. Super Show, a hybrid live-action/animated show;
Albano played Nintendo legend Mario in the live portion while also
voicing his cartoon counterpart.

In 1996, Albano claimed his rightful place in the pantheon of the
elite, the WWE Hall of Fame. Inducted by legendary New York media
personality Joe Franklin, Albano was finally truly recognized as one
of sports-entertainment's elite. He was often imitated but never
duplicated, and he certainly will never be forgotten either.
