It's better being in the know. I used to feel the same way you do about certain musicalns not getting credit due and the reasons why can always be contorted into the political and or racial. All that BS is straight Garbage by no talent people wanting the piece of someone else's pie. "So and so never got the credit he deserved and died broke and it's a shame and I'm upset that I have to earn a living Talking about it".... Said the music critic or the dude with a frickin pod cast. Eddie had all the fame, fortune and all that comes with it that he could possibly handle I'm guilty. I've played guitar all my life and just heard maggot brain the first time bout 10 years ago and I loved parliament back in the day. The skating rink and FLASH LIGHT....WE GOT LIGHT! 1976.

he put his soul into this song,i have to look at this video and listin to this at least once a day.

Heard at least 10 versions of this classic and IMO Michael Hampton rips a cover off this one like no one before or since.

This has to be the most beautiful guitar solo I've ever heard! Mike is a top tier guitar master! It's sad that when people talk about great guitar players, they never mention this man!

That first note at 2:01is the most important part of the song, its like someone pleading for help or mercy and you are the only one who can help them, it draws you in and you can,t help but listen to them! So to all you cover guys you have to hit it right then the rest is a wrap!

Man this is the first song I learned how to play by one of the best teachers rip Mr B you were awesome I was in 12 grade fresh out the hospital after my 8 or 9 brain surgery God put Mr B in my life to help me with school an he notices I played guitar so long story short he told me about maggot brain I listen to it night and day then he helped me graduate then showed me how to play from there on Ive ben playing it about 18 years

Mike didn't join the band until around '73 or '74. Maggot Brain was originally recorded around 1970 or '71.

This is what his guitars soul sounds like.

Makes me wanna cry. So emotional.

My Lord , this sounds sooo deep and genial..... remeber a concert of clinton im 1991 in cologne where the play this about 15 minutes , nobody spoken in that time everybody was caught in this song, awesome

I've been a die-hard Eddie Hazel fan since I was little and took me a while to warm up to Michael Hampton. Now I truly appreciate him. An exceptional guitarist and brought metal into the P Funk.

I heard his amazing majestical funkalicious bootiful sublime higher conciousness-inspiring playing of this song with all it's glory and deep-felt tributary-ness to the divine Eddie Hazel and his inspiration in Boston at the Orpheum during a 4 hr. funk mob assault that almost had the balcony crash down..for real no joking here, and every one in that house was moved to a spiritual realm wit the extreme funkadelical soul of their performance..memories that keep you going for ever..God bless P-Funk/Funkadelic!
