Are You Hung Up?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Are You Hung Up?" is the opening track on the 1968 album We're Only in It for the Money by Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention.
[edit] Song Structure
"Are You Hung Up?" is a short montage of dialogue and musique concrete lasting 1 minute and 25 seconds in length. It includes stuttering hippie vocals by Eric Clapton, "Uh, out of sight. Are, are you hung up?", engineer Gary Kellgren whispering about Frank Zappa's mighty, omniscient presence in the control room, a brief guitar lick and Jimmy Carl Black stating that he is the Indian of the group. This running joke resurfaces on later recordings by the original Mothers of Invention.
