Leslie Podkin's fantastic "You Won't Need No Money" is a real oddball tune that shows the extent to which the original popcorn DJs dug deep to find records from every angle. Defying strict genre conventions, this is neither rhythm and blues, jazz, pop, nor Latin, but instead has a strong flavor of all of them. Best just to call it popcorn then, and really superior popcorn it is. On the other side, as ever, another winner for your money: a female vocal-led mid-'50s big band R&B showstopper in the form of "Ooo-Poppa-Doo" by Lilyann Carol.
