Focusing on the lives and experiences of African Americans is the themed album series presented by The Mojo Man via Koko Mojo Records. The latest addition to a remarkably interesting series, and one with a social conscience, is ‘Money, Money, Money’. With a great shot of boxing legend Muhammed Ali gracing the front cover and depicted deep below in an unnamed bank vault ready to horde a wedge load of cash, this compilation provides accounts of situations where the individual is either struggling to make ends meet or the occasional example where the individual has a bit of spare change in their pockets. With blues and rhythm and blues being the music ordered to represent these songs about money, there is no better place to start than Jerry McCain’s raw blues shuffle ‘That’s What They Want’. From this position whether returning to the beginning of the track list or fast forwarding to its end, the musical journey will not disappoint as there’s plenty of rhythm and blues to keep the listener entertained. Whether it’s the carefree attitude detected in the tempo of Detroit Junior’s ‘Money Tree’, or the brassy rhythm of The Poor Boys ‘(I’m Gonna) Spend My Money’, rhythm and blues is certainly the dominant force throughout the album. With Georgia Lane really letting it out of the bag with the feisty composition ‘Get It’, to Dwight Duvoll dropping deep vocals and thoroughly convincing when explaining how to ‘Get The Money’ set to a bright rhythm with, again, plenty of brass instrumentation and proving a real driving force. Add to that a classic from The Clovers with ‘Your Cash Ain’t Nothing But Trash’ and further cool brass instrumentation by way of Billy Hamlin and ‘If You Ain’t Got No Bread’, and the album ‘Money, Money, Money’ can safely be said is worth exactly all of that and more!
