Music about money

[Purron]

Lots of worry about money these days. Perhaps sharing some music on this topic will help us forget our worries just a bit...

Oh you gotta have the Pink Floyd Money song! So awesome! Never get tired of it. Been playing Dark Side the Moon a lot lately on our new stereo.

What's that "Money, money, money, MO-ney!" Motown song they played for The Apprentice? That's a great song too.

Oh - I see Alan already posted it! Awesome! God I love those funkadelic bass riffs!

OK - this isn't about money exactly, but it is a song about lifestyle and spending money to try to project a certain image.

Mainly because - this is just such an awesome funkadelic rhythm&blues classic!!!!!!

YouTube - Tower Of Power - What Is Hip? (Chicago 1977)

The mixed race "hippie" backup band for the O'Jays made me think of these awesome guys.

awesome performance 20 years later
