2 unusual facts about Are You Hung Up?


Are You Hung Up?

"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.

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 saying "Hi, boys and girls, I'm Jimmy Carl Black and I'm the Indian of the group."
