The Harvey Wallbanger is an alcoholic beverage or cocktail made with vodka, Galliano, and orange juice.
The Harvey Wallbanger is reported to have been invented in 1952 by three-time world champion mixologist Donato 'Duke' Antone (Paolantonio), the brother-in-law of New York state Senator Carlo Lanzillotti.[citation needed] The Harvey Wallbanger was brought to international prominence by then Galliano salesman, George Bednar.[1] Legend has it that the drink was named after a Manhattan Beach surfer who was a regular patron of Duke's 'Blackwatch' Bar on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood during the early 1950s. Among Duke's other cocktail creations were the Rusty Nail, the Flaming Caesar, the White Russian, the Freddie Fudpucker, and the Godfather. Duke was also known for his management of legendary world champion boxer (and childhood friend) Willie Pep, and for his many charitable projects. Duke died after a short illness in 1992 and is survived by his only son Adrian, by two grandchildren, and by five great-grandchildren. Duke is the paternal grandfather of film-maker Dan Paolantonio.[citation needed]
The 1982 Milwaukee Brewers, winners of the American League pennant, were nicknamed "Harvey's Wallbangers," because of the team's power hitting (wall banging) under mid-season manager Harvey Kuenn. After a mediocre 23-24 start to the season, manager Buck Rodgers was fired. Under Kuenn, the team went 72-43 (.626), led the Major Leagues in home runs and total bases, and produced the highest team OPS+ since the 1931 New York Yankees.[2][3][4][5][6] The SAS sometimes referred to C4 explosive charges as "Harvey Wall-bangers."
Harvey Wallbanger is sometimes used to refer to the Wall Follower maze solving algorithm.
In CB lingo, a Harvey Wallbanger is a drunk driver; specifically, one who continually drifts across the road from one shoulder to the other and back.

[BEEP!] "Information, may I help you please?"
"Yeah I'd like the number of uhh, Harvey Wallbaner please?"
"Uhh let me get you my superior"
("More powerful..")
[Tony D]
One-two, one-two, move over one-two
Mic checkin and checkin and checkin and checkin for you
Harvey Wallbanger's, back to bang walls
Lastin for hours and never takin a pause
Cause Harvey, that is his name
And any other Harvey's just ain't the same
Although it seems amusing ain't a damn thing funny
So get that smirk off your face, money
And let's simply take a ride on the wild side
And bust our ass on the rawhide
Sex packets? I don't need to try these
Cause Harvey's in there for the 90's
With the quickness, speed, and agility
Harvey - has the ability
to reach the seventh letter of the alphabet
So Troy Wonder - tell 'em who to get
[Chorus]
Harvey [..]
You gotta get Harvey [..]
What's his name? His name is Harvey [..]
You know what I'm talkin? Get Harvey [..]
[Tony D]
Take off the hat this ain't no time for fashion
Why? This is a time for passion
Yes, another Harvey summer
What? I'm cloggin pipes like a plumber
This ain't the desert put away the cactus
Harvey - never needed any practice
He was born with the skill and technique
Technic - since I'm on it let me speak
about my DJ, Troy Wonder on the fader
with the quickness, teamed up with the fitness
Now who in the world has a faster wrist
Nobody tell 'em why Troy [Rakim] ("cause I've mastered this")
Yes you heard it from the grapevine
Get the hell off mine - cause it's Harvey time
Barring further adieux, I must get the job done
("Let's have some fun..") with Harvey
[Chorus]
Harvey [..]
[..]
It's Harvey [..]
[..]
[Tony D]
There's a knock at the door, yo guess who's here
Harvey? Nah, Jimmy the Queer
And Jimmy's just a little squirt kind of a Pee Wee Herman
Homeboy be like squirmin
Loose like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
I fit tight like a girdle
And when I quote I float note for note
So there's no need to ("CLEAR MY THROAT!")
Cause Harvey's skill you could never measure
So sit back relax and enjoy the pleasure
Harvey stays stiffer to the break of dawn
and goes ("on and on...")
Flowin like a river, passin your liver
Long enough to make your backbone shiver
Goosebumps, make you feel like you're numb
And it takes a long time 'til he says ("I'm comin!")
[Chorus]
It's Harvey [..]
It's Harvey [..]
It's Harvey [..]
Harvey [..]
[Tony D]
Now when it's time to stroke ("GO!") Harvey ain't no joke ("GO!")
Boxers get hot so you might see smoke ("GO!")
but never burnin, cause I like to examine
snatch, before I start rammin
Harvey, the new shit for the summer
Like neon, so put your pink on
or your blue on, or even your red on
Cause even in the dark I'm dead on.. target
And I never miss ONCE!
I'm always hittin the cunts
For the 90's, most definitely in there
Freaks of the world beware..
[Chorus]
It's Harvey [..]
It's Harvey [..] yeah you know what I'm sayin baby
It's Harvey [..] you wanna get stanky? Yup
It's Harvey [..] so get out your notes, your pad and pencil
Cause this is the explanation
For the 90's, most definitely in there, y'knowhatI'msayin?
The family, most definitely got, the big Harvey's y'knowhatI'msayin?
Troy Wonder got the Harvey, [?] got the Harvey
Ministers of Black got the Harvey
YouknowhatI'msayin? [BLEEP] got the Harvey
Poor Righteous Teachers most definitely got the Harvey
So now you know what a Harvey is, I must say
