ive been playing this song since i was 14 and i can never make it through without crying my eyes out this song is guitar gospel if u dont feel this youre dead
Comfortably Numb is great emotional solo, but I feel Maggot Brain more and I think Eddie Hazel didn't get the recognition he deserved. We all know who David Gilmore is? Different styles. JMO
I'm 58 listening to Maggot Brain since the 71.Must the play the record over a thousands of time and very loud in my bedroom as a teen.Still luv it right to this day.
I been playing this on guitar for about that long,i heard it's Eddie's lil wing..I can dig that...dedicated to my lil brother rest in peace and hope you are at peace lil brother 2/18/1967 -6/10/19...will always have a tear to shed for you...great performance wow...Thanx..helps me heal..
@@eh6138lucky! I can't count the hours I've spent tripping to Maggot Brain (and the entire Funkadelic catalog and lives in general). The original Eddie Hazel Maggot Brain has brought me to tears. He's why I wanted to learn guitar. Even as staunch Rap heads in highschool taking MDMA, we'd listen to Maggot Brain.
If this masterpiece does not fill your soul with light and bring tears to your eyes, then you are merely hearing it and not listening. Let the light in, you won't regret it.
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.
@@jamespatrick3462ahhh, the skating rink 😂. Blue eyeshadow, 'wings' haircuts and big plastic combs in the back pocket of your jeans. Lol. First psychedelic experience of every kid that entered. 😂
Michael Hampton is one of a kind,people..and since he is the one playing here stick your negativ vibes up yours and just be happy listening to this great version.
This has got to be one of if not the best guitar solo of all time. I seen them live in 1977 in there prime, seeing Mike & Eddie that night really blew me away. I've telling people about them every since. I can now show them what I was talking about.
Was dat Hampton playing cause it wasn't Hazel or Kid Funkedelic cause he's shorter. Whoever he was dat was da best live version of Maggot Brain even better dan Hazel & dats saying something. But U gotta admit da dude got down.
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! This song will never get old, timeless music! Much respect to Michael Hampton! I can't forget to mention Eddie Hazel too! R.i.p Eddie Hazel!
A friend and I dropped acid and listened to this song looking over a lake as a low pressure and high pressure storm front collided. It was the most spiritual closest to god moment we both ever had in our lives...But let me tell you friends put the good into this world and it will come back..
Back in the 1970's, was definitely the times where I learned that the brain was a wonder, by doing the strawberry mesc, and fine tuning in a little L.S.D in the mix, was for sure an awesome experience! What educating times in my life! Wouldn't trade my life for anything. Listening to Maggot Brain for hours on end was the way we did it back in those hippie trippy day's. To all my favorite people who knew how to trip and trip hard! See the colors, feel the colors and smell the colors, and all the beautiful melting of Cities! May, Peace, Love and Harmony be with us ALL! My name is Larry D. Lucas. aka, Luke! From Kentucky.

Along with Mr. Eddie Hazel’s version and the one included on the ep from the ONE NATION UNDER A GROOVE album this is definitely one of the greatest performances of MAGGOT BRAIN on film or vinyl.
Mike Hampton may not be quite as good as Eddie, but he still knocks it out of the park, and this is probably one of the best live versions in terms of audio quality.
Yes Eddie us the father mike is the Kidd compared to Eddie every riff mike did he learned from Eddie who recorded numerous demos playing guitar tracks while mike, g arry, Byrd, glen, boogie, luge, Andre all studied his riffs or Eddie personally taught them billy bass showed bootsy how to slap his bass and hiw to use fuzztones
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
I had the opportunity to see them land the Mothership and play Maggot Brain live in my last year of high school in 1979 before leaving for my 20 years in the Army.👍😎🔥😃
What a talent...He was buried to this song I believe, which is fitting as this is one of the canon of rock guitar solo instrumentals...an immortal song.
So beautiful. 😢 It's like the celebratory but dramatic Tale of the Human Journey. As a kid I had the albums but I was listening to the radio cuts. Never knew I had this jewel 💎 in my possession. Just now hearing at age of 57😮. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
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!
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!
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

ive been playing this song since i was 14 and i can never make it through without crying my eyes out this song is guitar gospel if u dont feel this youre dead
Then I'm alive.
Welcome back, it's been almost a decade.
Much respect and love to you.
Facts!!!!!!
ha ha, stop lying. It's a great song, but you are not 'crying your eyes out', lol.
@@manuelper It's true, while I don't cry my eyes out, it does make me cry a little bit when I listen to it.
One of the greatest slow jams of all time
one of those jams that either makes you STOP playing guitar, or go practice more. inspiring jam!
I will flip a coin. Heads I keep playing. Tails I quit... ... it came up.. Heads... shit.
nailed it
Best guitar solo hands down, ever.
Because it's from a funk band it dosn't get the praise it deserves
I'd say only the second solo from Comfortably Numb beats it and Voodoo Child (Slight Return) is neck and neck. Other than those two, this is the best.
@@JiraiyaTheGallant44 Nothing beats this!!!
@@JiraiyaTheGallant44 Very Good Comparisons.
Not out of the park-near perfect, but what is perfect-He kills it!
He Kills it here, Tho
God Bless!!
Under rated guitarists!
Comfortably Numb is great emotional solo, but I feel Maggot Brain more and I think Eddie Hazel didn't get the recognition he deserved. We all know who David Gilmore is? Different styles. JMO
Greatest guitar solo ever. It speaks straight to the soul. Love you all and wish you luck in your journey on this earth
Listen to buckethead, it is the same i think
@@user-fl7ns6ti3j buckethead is fantastic and I agree he’s the only one I would compare to funkadelic
been listening to this song for 43 years now, it never gets old.
I'm 58 listening to Maggot Brain since the 71.Must the play the record over a thousands of time and very loud in my bedroom as a teen.Still luv it right to this day.
Dennis Martin Never!!!!
I been playing this on guitar for about that long,i heard it's Eddie's lil wing..I can dig that...dedicated to my lil brother rest in peace and hope you are at peace lil brother 2/18/1967 -6/10/19...will always have a tear to shed for you...great performance wow...Thanx..helps me heal..
My drinking tune!!!
Dennis Martin I feel like I missed the greatest tour ever having not seen Parliament on the mothership tour!!
It’s 2019. I still feel that first note down my spine
King Reese I feel you
and back up again, gave me chills!
2023 NOW.. IT WON'T LET YOU STOP..
i was a teenager and tripping the first time i heard maggot brain...blew my mind
I'm tripping right now. I can confirm this to be the result.
@@eh6138lucky! I can't count the hours I've spent tripping to Maggot Brain (and the entire Funkadelic catalog and lives in general).
The original Eddie Hazel Maggot Brain has brought me to tears. He's why I wanted to learn guitar.
Even as staunch Rap heads in highschool taking MDMA, we'd listen to Maggot Brain.
Maggot Brain was made while Eddie was on acid, and is perfect for acid.
Michael Hampton is like one of the most underrated guitar 🎸 players ever! Dude plays the shit outta Maggot Brain!
I wish Mike would've had his own metal band back in the day. He was a beast
If this masterpiece does not fill your soul with light and bring tears to your eyes, then you are merely hearing it and not listening. Let the light in, you won't regret it.
This is just freakin awesome...grew up on P-FUNK....love this

FOR THE LAST TIME, THIS IS MICHEAL HAMPTON
Eddie wrote it and he plays it better
Its Eddie Hazel jam there maken money hope his family got paid something !👈✌✊
This Eddie Hazel live Not Mike Hampton
So ruthless and psychedelic. Love it. The best live performance of Maggot Brain for sure. The licks from 4:10 onward are out of this world.
YES
It’s 2021 and I still hear this. My best friend wanted this played at his funeral. They didn’t have time. I failed him. RIP Charles Steward
You can always play it for him
@@chrisedwards3214yep.
CRANK IT🎸🎸 ❤
This is the best version
Maryland 1983
Everybody I put on to this fell in love......
If there were ever a video that should have no thumbs down, this is it. My god
This is just the most amazing guitar solo I've ever heard. Such a moving piece of music. Much love and respect. Lucky to see him play this live.
I’ve seen him play it live five times and each time was a mind blowing experience
2 masters of the ax man ,Eddie and Mike were beasts
RIP Eddie Hazel & Purple Prince
Word has it prince wanted to come out and do maggot brain with the funk mob in the 80s but would never do it
I'm from iran and think this is best performance.
Rest in peace brother eddie.
as a rule, this guy doesn't have to stop playing until he wants to. awesome jam.
clearly the best solo done by a guitar
It's hard to believe this song never got it's due on radio !!!
in "78"& "79" b it mike or eddie someones soul was crying,the guitars spoke for them on those 2 nights.....R.I.P. EDDIE "MAGGOT BRAIN" HAZEL...
Listening since the 70's, all you can do . Is to lay back and smoke a bone.
Funk is Funk and these are the Gods of Funk. Been a Funkateer since 1969
greatest 9 minutes of my life
I am a Hazel feel type of guy as opposed to Hamptons technical mastery. But this rendition is absolutely flawless. Spine-tingling.
agree
Kidd is criminally underrated
Was dat Hampton playing cause it wasn't Hazel or Kid Funkedelic cause he's shorter. Whoever he was dat was da best live version of Maggot Brain even better dan Hazel & dats saying something. But U gotta admit da dude got down.
Oh so dat was Kid Funkedelic. Didn't look like him with dat hood on & I envisioned him shorter than dat. My bad. Dude got down.
Michael Hampton is "Kid funkadelic"
he put his soul into this song,i have to look at this video and listin to this at least once a day.
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!

This is Hampton
Some things are just simply, "Beautiful."
this is from another dimension.......

If they played music like this in church I would go! ***edit - on second thought, I am going to church right now courtesy of Michael Hampton!!! ***

You lucky man
I’ve only ever heard the studio version but this, this is beautiful. 10 minutes in maggot brain time is a full hour.
amazing how i can hold my breath for 10 minutes
This is what I want to hear right before I die

If jedi knights had guitars...
YEEEEESSSSSS! EXACTLY!
Yesssss!
I hear this for the first time at 37 years old….
Heard at least 10 versions of this classic and IMO Michael Hampton rips a cover off this one like no one before or since.
wow,this is fantastic michael hampton is spectacular here.
I love this version!
It is Michael Hampton and he plays like none of you could.
Sonic Euphoria from The Soul World! Listening to Maggot Brain and Machine Gun, connects you with the All n All. Love and Light my Melenated Family.
I'm in total awe! He does look like the Messiah on the guitar! He's a direct decendant of Jimi and Eddie! Totally orgasmic!
on this version kid funkadelic laid it down!!!pure and simple!!!
charles simpson that's Eddie Hazel yo
Henry Thompson That’s Michael Hampton, Eddie Hazel didn’t play an Alembic guitar.
@@henrythompson5149, no, it’s not.
Been binging on this for the last week and I can't stop watching it... The best lead rhythm solo I've ever heard!!!
HEDRICK, ISLEY, HAZEL, HAMPTON, BOOTSY, SANTA.
Magical
I just wish youtube had a love button cause like is a total understatement, this is soul tingling
Mike Hampton may not be quite as good as Eddie, but he still knocks it out of the park, and this is probably one of the best live versions in terms of audio quality.
Yep eddie passed the torch
Thank goodness SOMEBODY knows their music history. RIP Eddie, long live the Prince. *wet eyes*

I am going insane constantly listening to this version...outstanding
It’s 2020 and this is still in my soul
This record started me listening to rock music, because I remember when, this classic was the most played record on all rock stations.
I had the opportunity to see them land the Mothership and play Maggot Brain live in my last year of high school in 1979 before leaving for my 20 years in the Army.👍😎🔥😃
What an awesome opportunity!!!
Been listing to this for the last 2 days Wow is all i can say
I’ve been listening to it for 40 years
2023..M.B. Still Takes Me There.. Introduced to it 1975.. Would Not Have It No Other Way..FUNK LIVES
What a talent...He was buried to this song I believe, which is fitting as this is one of the canon of rock guitar solo instrumentals...an immortal song.
That's Michael Hampton (Kid Funkadelic).
this is simply beautiful plain and simple.
This is actually way more sick live!!!
Speechless..............that was the greatest guitar playing I've EVER heard. Angelic and hypnotic. Sent a 10 minute chill up my spine
Man oh man, my spirit needed that.... Thanks so much for sharing that awesomeness
An intergalactic journey to the heart of soul.
This is what his guitars soul sounds like.

Mike didn't join the band until around '73 or '74. Maggot Brain was originally recorded around 1970 or '71.
Favorite song of all time 🔥🔥🔥
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.
Blown Away. I've never even heard this. It's like something Prince would play if he was on some insane bender. Fantastic. Wow.
a timeless masterpiece
this version is the best one, he makes it look so easy.
I was in the house as a young kid The Summit in Houston Texas. Smoking that good weed ,giving up the song Waiting for the bomb
Makes me wanna cry. So emotional.
close your eyes an chill 4 a minute,now tell me you dont feel better...
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!
Absolutely sick! And he’s playing an Alembic. Doesn’t get much better than this!
sublime !
If you've ever lost someone and want them to hear your cry...THIS IS IT!!!
Best version of this song live that I've seen on RUclips
Classic funk rock !!!!!!!
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
