Product Description
Album Description
• Funkadelic’s ultimate early classic remastered from the original masters for the first time in 15 years. MAGGOT BRAIN is rated by, amongst others, Mojo Magazine as an all-time classic. Their critics voted it the fourth greatest guitar album ever, only beaten by Jimi Hendrix and the Who. Guitarist Eddie Hazel’s playing on the title track is nothing short of stunning.
• This reissue includes the original seven track album plus the bonus of an alternate mix of the album’s title track. It also includes ‘Whole Lot Of BS’, the non album B-side of the album’s third single, ‘Hit It And Quit It’, and the contemporary 45 ‘I Miss My Baby’ recorded by US Music with Funkadelic.
• The booklet includes in-depth sleeve notes by funk expert Dean Rudland, with details of the history of the band and this recording.
• The package includes full colour reproduction of the original artwork, contemporary memorabilia and adverts.
Product Description
Digitally remastered in 2005! Undisputed 1971 masterpiece, reissued with 3 rare BONUS tracks and liner notes.

What a crime that Eddie Hazel is not known in the same breath as Carlos Santana, Jimi Hendrix or Snowy White. His playing on Maggot Brain is heart-breaking. If anything, the alternative version is probably even better. This cd does not cost the earth, and the price is worth it for these two tracks alone. If like me, you believe that instruments are actually played from the heart and soul, you will not be dissapointed. Go ahead.. you'll be all the richer having this cd in your collection. Eddie Hazel you are a legend.

My intro to Funkadelic, (thanks to Flea and Anthony) was reading Scar tissue.
I was inspired to look Funkadelic up on You tube and came across maggot brain.
Initially put off/intrigued by the wacky title I was then entranced by the title track which wouldn't be out of place in many others hi falutin work.
The rest of the madness is a different kettle of fish, and I like it, though it is off my usual path.
'Whole lot of BS' has become a regular in my head as well as on the stereo.
I want to hear more.

Funkadelic's Maggot Brain is, quite simply, an album where every track features a band on top of their game.
From the drama of the title track to the full on sound-FX laden jam Wars of Armageddon this is a thoroughly enjoyable album.
What I truly love about this album though is that not only is it full of great songs and performances but it sounds like a band having a lot of fun while doing it.
You won't regret purchasing this album.

Psychedelic? Funk? Rock?
All of the above.
From the long, mournful tune of the title track, right through to the closer, many different styles are touched upon by this very creative and fun band. Read more

A "Must Have"...
I heard the 10 minute+ title track and, being a guitarist, marvelled at this (there is a current web forum : Hazel vs Slash) and bought the album. Read more

A classic. Not something I would play every day but, when the time is right, nothing else will do.
