This song is even better without headphones. A tab of acid and a dark room. This song will transform you. Maggot Brain was also the nickname for Eddie Hazel. The gentleman who played this.

[@matthewbright8182]

The guitarist was told to play as if he'd just found out his mother had died, it's such an amazing tribute to love, pain and grief.

[@kevinaviles9448]

I feel like this was a tribute to Hendrix after his passing. No one really knows what lead Eddie to create this masterpiece, unless you were Eddie hazel himself

[@----5139]

@@kevinaviles9448 I mean George Clinton himself confirmed that he told Hazel to play is if they just told him his mother had just died. Like bro do some research lol

[@narainsepechepuru5786]

@@----5139 asked him to play like someone just told him his mother died and then he found out she was alive

[@SmokingSevens]

Halfway through the guitar changes - the same guy told him to play as if he had just found out she's alive. You can feel the change in the guitar.

[@jamesjezard4553]

The greatest guitar solo of all time

[@jonathanhawken]

Eddie Hazel one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

[@Medicsus]

This song makes me cry so much. Knowing how he was told to play as if he found out his mother died really hits deep. You can literally feel the emotions through his playing. No voice needed. My mom died and I can feel this song really well. Its absolutely PERFECT.

[@djpeternice]

"some relaxful peaceful ting" 😭

[@ericjones8031]

In the mid 70s my rock loving, Hendrix loving wmms (home of the buzzard Cleveland) white friends all freaked out hearing this track for the first time and would buy the album just for that song

[@dagmarmrogers1]

Saw them live back in 1977 I think, long time ago, it was insane.

[@camobis]

lucky bastard.

[@Meine.Postma]

Don't care how long ago this post was this man gets the guitar yeah! Brothers and sisters in music right?

[@mr.orange8211]

Listen to California Dreamin' by Eddie Hazel (the legendary guitarist for Funkadelic).

[@gnunard]

By me, finding the most pure reaction of this song... This is the most pure reaction.

[@gnunard]

A Break character song

[@johanander7785]

Love your reaction to this stunning song. Would like some more Parliament-Funkadelic reactions. 🤘

[@davidpayne3041]

Roadman just got schooled by Eddie Hazel

[@jonathanhawken]

Ohhhh shit FUNKADELIC. This song as the end of an acid trip with mates is INSANE. Such a good send off to bedtime

[@kimdracvla]

yesssss

[@ThyGeekGoddessMuze]

It's so nice to see someone feel this for the first time. Some guitars weep gently. Two guitars wailing IA what we have here. We lost so many mothers in the 60s. So many mothers lost their babies, too. We're just supposed to carry on as if...? What I also liked about Tears for Fears, "Mothers Talk".

[@the54thfloor47]

Original of this was done in one take in an airplane hangar. Eddie Hazel, Glen Goins and I can’t remember the other guitar player.

[@thraskii]

Next song on the album 'Can You Get To That' is great song too

[@sergebraida5622]

Hit it and quit it too. Such a great fucking groove!

[@jessed3483]

If you're feeling this, you should hear A Tear For Eddie, by Ween. It was written as a tribute to this guitarist, Eddie Hazel

[@KKoje]

Cuts right into your soil. Every hurt, every heartbreak, every disappointment, every failure. To me this is God talking talking through that guitar.

[@willywonka7812]

Best group ever

[@ikenga02]

The late great Eddie Hazel. Add "Super Stupid" off of the same album to listen to.

[@briancoburn6903]

Great song. Love the riff that kicks in right after the guitar solo.

[@april3285]

This song is so powerful

[@kimdracvla]

love this song sm

[@deucescrackedrulz]

I'm writing this before even seeing the video, but this song is something else. I lost my mom and was in a depressed mood, idk, trying to unlock something inside. I used LSD and found this song, listenened to it for the first time and it was one of those moments where you get the meaning from every note, the scene playing out in front of your eyes as the guitars are "yelling at each other"at some point in the song ...all of that and much more. Later I went to look up the history of the song, meaning and all that and found out that "the 10-minute title track was recorded in one take when Clinton, under the influence of LSD, told guitarist Eddie Hazel to play as if he had been told his mother was dead". Yeah ... that's when I knew there are no coincidences really.

[@bougritos]

the riff is insane ! totally ! next time try tommy emmanuel - classical gas

[@Enchantedpluto]

You gotta listen to Santana’s old stuff, like Black Magic Woman. He’s a helluva guitarist

[@user-ii3vn8tn3q]

Absolutly

[@KKoje]

Two guitars = nosebleed. A slow, unoticeable-at first-drip!!! Somebody had mixed angel dust into a joint I hit just before I listened to this track. I have never been the same since. Cosmic, galactic and beyond, I traveled in ways mechanical conveyance could ever hope to. It still dors that to me even without any extraneous substance to propel me.

[@Grawlixify]

Santana - Europa!

[@oldmancasey420]

Some relaxing peaceful thing, hahaha

[@chrisedwards3214]

The whole band played the song in the original recording but they was so high George Clinton faded them.out you can hear the original.mix on youtube

[@briancoburn6903]

Have you heard A Joyful Process, from America, Eats it's Young?? Thats fabulous too.

[@SmoofDizzle]

You should deffs check out Jamiroquai if you haven't already. Kind of a similar vibe to this.

[@keithdunwoody1302]

I heard this as a kid in the early 70s and it blew my feckin' mind to kingdom come. I realized the ultimate power of music and it made me want to do it.

[@chrisedwards3214]

You need to listen to all.of eddies work first three funkadelic albums, first parliament album osnium The funkadelic live 71 album, the funkadelic toys a Eddies solo albums game Danes and guitar thangs and rest in p Plus three songs on the axiom funk orbitroin attack, pray my soul and sacred to the pain

[@bryanforis1839]

Great music this the way they should play they should of been bigger saw live you know there greatest

[@SmokingSevens]

This song was supposed to be something else entirely - like with drums and a bass line and lyrics. But when they heard this guitar track they scrapped the rest of it, and just went with it the way we hear it today.

[@chrisedwards3214]

He said come on maggot brain go on maggot brain

[@stevymartin1509]

Enjoying your reactions and the nice variety of genres. Would recommend a newer release for you to react to: Alexisonfire - Sans Soleil.

[@chrisedwards3214]

Check out funkadelics good to your earhole, comin round the mountain and hardcore jollies for more Eddie And funkadelic standing on the verge of getting it on albim

[@fmcgarry9449]

Classic 👌👌👌

[@EJHilt]

This album inspired Esham a rapper from Detroit. He is a legend in Detroit history of rap music and he was the person who inspired and helped create insane clown posse in the early 90's. Esham made a album called maggot Brain theory which inspired him from this album that you all reviewing from maggot Brain. Esham is a legend and i would highly recommend him for you to see his take on this.

[@michaelbaylor2923]

You are listening to the sounds of the GUITAR GOD MR. EDDIE HAZEL

[@SmoofDizzle]

Oh also if you dig the non-vocals jammy rock type stuff deffs check out "Strawberry Girls" or "Polyphia" they're some amazing musicians. Also one of the guitarists in Strawberry Girls used to be in Dance Gavin Dance so it gives you a clue into what their sound is.

[@nickdodds4143]

Give a listen to Animals as Leaders-Wave of Babies. It’s all instrumental but trust me.

[@rdxtwitch2944]

So when do we get? second time hearing funkadelic, but stoned. 😄

[@roverwoelders3960]

This man has the widest fking range of music. Props to that man really dope

[@danejoseph6208]

Eddie actually used only one guitar, and it was done in one take.

[@blobeyez]

You really carnt get much better than this my man 👍🤘👍👍 subb to u n liked for future generations of trcks 👍👍

[@sergebraida5622]

The late great Eddie Hazel.

[@the54thfloor47]

🤗❤🙏

[@elliepoole8881]

You should listen to wrong way by sublime 🙌🏼 also explosivo by tenacious d!

[@robsmith8997]

Hah! My favorite little fact about this song is that it's named after George Clinton's friend's dog, Maggotbrain. That's why you hear a background voice saying "Come on, maggotbrain. Go on, Maggotbrain" toward the end of the song!

[@Jay.Z]

Yoo ma brother you gotta check out this tune stargazer by Rainbow 🌈 The live one might be even better than the studio. 🤘😉👌

[@kathryndunn9655]

See you got t Shirt on 😄

[@NORMANHIGH405]

If you duck with this listen to “Can you get to that” and “ hit it and quit it”

[@reecegildersleeve7555]

Volbeat- Lola montez

[@ravongore3496]
