We're Only in It for the Money is the third studio album by the Mothers of Invention. Released on March 4, 1968, on Verve Records, it was subsequently remixed and re-recorded by Frank Zappa and reissued by Rykodisc in 1986. As with the band's previous two albums, We're Only in It for the Money is a concept album, and satirizes left and right-wing politics, particularly the hippie subculture, as well as the Beatles' album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Despite some specific references, the first-half suite is still wickedly funny, since its targets remain immediately recognizable. The second half shows where his sympathies lie, with character sketches of Zappa's real-life freak acquaintances, a carefree utopia in "Take Your Clothes Off When You Dance," and the strident, unironic protest "Mother People

On the 50th anniversary of its release, we talk a look back on "We're Only In It For the Money" by Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention. The Mothers were a fascinating bunch; a notorious cabal of multi-talented weirdos from the Los Angeles freak scene, they were a sort of anomaly in the musical culture of the time.

Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention –. We’re Only In It For The Money. Uncensored Original Mix by soniclovenoize). Currently, all but four specific alterations of the album had been restored to the original 1968 mix of We’re Only In It For The Money: the spoken Velvet Underground reference in Concentration Moon, the Don’t cum in me verse of Harry, You’re A Beast, the Shut your fucking mouth verse of Mother People and the reversed version of that same. But is there a way to reinstate these sections? Some of those pieces exist on a bootleg of demos recorded for the album, but only exist in mono at the wrong tape speeds, and are thus unusable. Maybe there is another option? The.
