Steve Martin on taxes --> Robert Cray "1040 Blues"

I guess calling anything LN today is kinda beside the point...

I'll admit to being totally non-enthused about this set.

yeah it is usually the same songs every year. A tradition to grin and bear.  The aptly-named Mr Cash was our one bustout, I'm assuming

As long as the new wave version (Flying Lizards?) of Money That's What I Want stays on the sidelines, I'll be happy.

Digging the extended O'Jays. Don't think I've heard this version with sax and trumpet solos.

Archie Bunker cheats on his taxes --> the inevitable Randy Newman, "It's Money That Matters". Just once I'd like his "It's Money That I Love" instead.

Yeah, lots of the usual suspects in this one, but as with a number of theme sets (and as Mike said), it's about the evergreens.  For me this one was all about the clips. Some really nice between-song audio in this one, so that gets my BOS vote.
Let's get right to it.
