Elliott Sharp's Terraplane - Twenty Dollar Bill
20 Dollar Bill - Elliott Sharp's Terraplane featuring Eric Mingus
Delmark 883-8 Digital Single
Written by Elliott Sharp, “Twenty-Dollar Bill” is both a lament about the nature and value of folding money in today's world as well as a satiric stab at the fact that Andrew Jackson, featured on the $20 bill, was also a slaveholder. The push to replace Jackson with Harriet Tubman, a social activist and abolitionist and escaped slave, has been mired in Congressional inactivity.
