If you were introducing a friend to 1960s Southern soul with one track from this album, which would you pick and why?

The Exciting Wilson Pickett by Wilson Pickett · Flower Children

99 and a half. This is probably my favorite WP tune if I had to choose one. The opening bass groove, the sharp staccato guitar and horn jabs, and of course, Pickett is immaculate. Such power. Such dynamics. Love that song.
