Money in the Pocket is the debut album led by keyboardist Joe Zawinul released on the Atlantic label in 1967.

The Allmusic review awarded the album 3 stars.All About Jazz awarded the album 3½ stars stating "Money In The Pocket is a remarkable album—remarkable in that gives absolutely no hint of the shape shifts that would transform Zawinul's work a few years later. The first of three albums he recorded for Atlantic, it's a conventional mix of mid-1960s hard bop and soul jazz".The Guardian's John Fordham noted "this session reflects the driving grooves of that popular soul-jazz style – so there are a lot of backbeats, repeating riffs, horn-harmony wailing and stagey stop-time breaks".
