Funkadelic - Maggot Brain

Funkadelic - Maggot Brain 1971 Maggot Brain Synopsis: Maggot Brain is an amazing display of guitarwork recorded in one take. With an opening monologue that sets the tone in this funk psychedelia, Eddie Hazel, supposedly told by George Clinton who, under the influence of LSD, told Hazel to play the song like his mother had died and to play the second half as if he had found out she was alive. Lyrics: [spoken] Mother Earth is pregnant for the third time For y’all have knocked her up. I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe I was not offended For I knew I had to rise above it all Or drown in my own shit. Come on Maggot Brain Go on Maggot Brain
