EP153: Funkadelic "Maggot Brain"

<div class="">A record that needs little introduction.  Just say “Maggot Brain” and the album cover of an afro’d woman, screaming and buried to her neck in dirt immediately comes to mind as does Eddie Hazel’s indelible guitar that blares for ten+ minutes on the opening title track.  We discuss the classic for more than twice the original albums runtime.  Time well spent.  </div> <div class=""> </div> <div class="">Disclaimer:  We somehow completely neglected to discuss Funkadelic’s influence on 90’s West Coast Hip-Hop and on Dr. Dre’s G-Funk sound in particular.  A ridiculous omission that we’ll have to correct on a future episode. </div> <div class=""> </div> <div class=""><u class="">Recommended Listening </u></div> <div class=""> </div> <div class=""><em>Funkadelic</em></div> <div class=""> https://open.spotify.com/album/2uTTr2MEM4xINKN9Bls8KX?si=Vodp8xr2Sp6bYRQjKJcRVg</div> <div class=""><em> </em></div> <div class=""><em>Free Your Mind and Your Ass Will Follow</em></div> <div class=""> <em> </em>https://open.spotify.com/album/4KwnXtl935KC3Jik2ZOsop?si=pA8xxyG4QSStDtZZBf-f1w</div> <div class=""> </div> <div class=""><em>Cosmic Slop</em></div> <div class=""> <em> </em>https://open.spotify.com/album/0eluWxC7iv6vd3Bj5vxJqU?si=5JU4s0tISPGITe4fJMIcfg</div> <div class=""> </div> <div class="">George Clinton <em>Vital Juices:  The Acid - Funk - Metal Doo Wop Years (1958 to 1974)</em></div> <div class=""> https://www.discogs.com/George-Clinton-Vital-Juices-The-Acid-Funk-Metal-Doo-Wop-Years-1958-To-1974/release/555567</div> <div class=""> </div> <div class="">Red Hot Chili Peppers <em>Freaky Styley </em></div> <div class=""> https://open.spotify.com/album/10Oqhoq2akSJnurJOPk8xT?si=_CwKmBhuTISUf6bgbD5azg</div> <div class=""> </div> <div class="">Sleigh Bells <em>Rill Rill</em></div> <div class=""> https://open.spotify.com/track/3GbjOImkNo5nFT2GQxVr11?si=MR0FD9BUT_yZz4tcN9Aruw</div> <div class=""> </div> <div class="">Childish Gambino <em>Boogieman</em></div> <div class=""> https://open.spotify.com/track/0SunFlwqT44E0BU
