Frank Zappa -We are only in it for the money

We are only in it for the money

We're Only In It For The Money arose in the wake of the hippie era in 1968. Frank Zappa must have not liked hippies because he's makes fun of them throughout this album. He also takes a stab at riots involving hippies and politics.

This album is great. It's pretty obvious that The Beatles used this as a basis for their Abbey Road album, showing how inspirational it was at the time. When I purchased the Record in the 70s, it had a different cover though. It was yellow and had all the band members on it and the CD cover was the gatefold. This confused me a lot. It was probably a manufacturing error. This album outdated now but it's a classic in the Mothers catalogue.

I'd encourage Mothers fans to get this CD and listen to it a few times to really understand how great it is.

Its sounds trippy with headphones on.
