$ works every which way....

When the track "$" from Lotus came on I cracked a smile. It's fun, funky, simple, and original. I wonder if it was originally written back in the Parade/SOTT era. It sounded like he was about to break into the horns from "It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night at one point but instead went with a less dynamics one. It's style just reminds me of $ or Money, La La La, He He He, etc... . On another note the opening track for MPLS is probably the worst choice for an opener that he has ever made. Still his two discs exceeded my expectations, nice work P!!

I agree, $ wouldn't sound out of place on SOTT. I love it!

Reminds me of "Sleep Around" from Emancipation. Which is a good thing.

I can see those 2, along with "Courtin' Time" being the theme music for an episode of Dancing With The Stars.
