I just read an interesting article about Barrett Strong and his Motown hit, "MONEY". There has been a long time dispute between Barrett, Berry and Motown as to writing credits on the song. Writing credits have been added and writing credits have been taken away from the song through the years. Barret's has been taken away. He is eighty now, and dispute is probably still going on.

Who should actually get credit is a little confusing, but it's a good read. Check it out here

Interesting article that I remember reading some time ago.

Another interesting twist: in the book SAM AND DAVE: AN ORAL HISTORY, Sam Moore says that he wrote MONEY.
