For the Love of Money (media book)

Description

The group has composed hits that have touched millions of music fans. The list of their clients is long. In fact, it could not be longer. It includes some of the most illustrious names: Rolling Stones, Seal, Annie Lennox, Madonna, Mick Jagger, Nine Inch Nails, Lauryn Hill, MosDef, REM, Charlie Watts, Tina Turner, Miles Davis, Peter Gabriel, James Brown, Depeche Mode, Malcolm Mc Laren, George Clinton, Herbie Hancock, Duran Duran, BB King, The Cure, Donna Summer, Billy Idol, Al Green, African Bambaatta, Mark Stewart, Tommy Boy Label, Sugarhill Gang Label and many, many others...! Their talent cannot be considered only on an individual basis. They are a collective of musicians, producers, remixers, and friends. Today, and after 23 years, they are finally releasing a new album with the sarcastically accusatory title, For the Love Of Money. The album consists almost exclusively of rearranged covers by artists who inspired TACK>>HEAD, such as The Meters, Funkadelic, David Bowie/ Brian Eno, Stevie Wonder, the Ohio Players. The album also pays tribute to two reggae icons, Bob Marley and Errol Dunkey, by putting them “in the TACK>>HEAD sauce.”
