Description

This is a true first press. All first pressings had a minor censorship but the second pressing had heavy censorship. This is the first minor censored version. For example.


Who Needs the Peace Corps?" - the "kick the s*** out of me on the street" is still in the track.


"Let's Make the Water Turn Black" - the lines "And I still remember Mama with her apron and her pad / Feeding all the boys at Ed's Cafe" is still in the track.



This product is a 1968 first pressing of Frank Zappa's album "We're Only In It For the Money" on the Verve record label. It is a 33 RPM LP in stereo format, featuring original cover art. The record is in near mint condition, while the sleeve is graded as very good plus. This collectible item is a must-have for fans of Zappa's early work, showcasing the unique blend of rock and experimental music that he is known for. Made in the United States, this first edition pressing offers a glimpse into the innovative sound of the late 1960s.
