FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY – The O’Jays

#2034 – FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY – 12/2/2019
18 years ago today the Enron Corporation files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in a New York court, sparking one of the largest corporate scandals in U.S. history. Just another one of a litany of instances of greed in our world.

Why not listen to the vocal talents of Eddie Levert, William Powell, and Walter Williams – better known as the O’Jays – for a reality check? This lesson on greed was produced by Philly legends Gamble & Huff and featuring a mesmerizing phased bass line by one of the song’s composers Anthony Jackson. I am not going to post a live version so you can hear one of my favorite bass lines ever as I first heard it.
