Overtly long psyched-out guitar solos = no thanks.

I really treid and I was just like

paisleypark4 said:

Man, you guys are lame. "Maggot Brain" is some killer ROCK & ROLL!

eddie's guitar on maggot brain is about the most human any musical instrument has ever sounded. if you cant get to that because it doesnt fit your regressive definition of funk, i feel deeply sorry for you.....sucka

There's a lot of "fake funk" fans out there.

PFunkjazz said:

ooohh..no he didnt...oh no honey... Keysha! KEYSHA!!! Go get Big Mo!

PFunkjazz said:

Keyword being 'ROCK & ROLL'. Maggot Brain has absolutely nothing to do with funk. Get real.

theghostoftonym said:

I don't 'get it' because I'm not a big fan of the guitar solo. Especially one that lasts for ten minutes.
That just bores the shit out of me.

FuNkeNsteiN said:

I know thats right

I just got this album and you can hear Clinton all on this project...the song "Brothers cup" reminds you of "Tear the Roof of the sucker"

ENJOYABLE DISC!

FuNkeNsteiN said:

Yeah- he USED to be a terrible vocalist- and probably is still weak live- but Stadium Arcadium - he sounds REALLY good. And I don't care what they did to get it that way - cause it kicks ass. And it has some super funky tracks on it.

Also- really - Maggot Brain bores you? Jeez.....that is sad. And just because it sounds like rock doesn't make it not funk. What are the Isley Brothers ? they had KILLEr guitar on their tracks. You guys go limiters on your funk o vision glases or something???? lol

Blood Sugar Sex Magick is my fave from them and I have all of the Peppers albums. As I've posted on here a few times before, when I was in Jr. High, and early high school, I used to go see the peppers and Fishbone live all the time at the Whiskey A Go Go cuz there was and is no age limit there. I first read about them being produced by Clinton and because of that, I went out and got their debut. I thought their name came from the song "Red Hot Momma" which connected with George producing them. I was surprised at the sound of the album, being that it wasn't shit like Funkadelic. Which is what I expected.

Just because the song was made by 'Funkadelic' doesn't mean it's gonna be funky. There is absolutely NOTHING funky about Maggot Brain.

They are as funky as Pat Boone.

True dat

FuNkeNsteiN said:

U know I'm not lying.....

Graycap23 said:

I know, man, I know.
The rest of these people just haven't realized it yet

FuNkeNsteiN said:

lol.....if they think these cats are funky they never will.

FuNkeNsteiN said:

Shit playa. I'm as real as real can be. Funkadelic was as much about makin' funk for rockers as rockin' out typical ol funkstas like yourself. You just don't dig that guitar funk and that's ok. Ya always got yer crystal mirror ball to reminisce the Parliament trax, but don't fade too much when Kidd drops the solo.

FuNkeNsteiN said:

U know what player? Don't concern yourself with what "others" think. Everyone has their own opinion. Perhaps if u were truly at peace with what u believed, u wouldn't trip all the damn time in what others thought. U don't have to tell nobody on here that Maggot Brain isn't a "funk" song. Like that's some bigg ass revelation. U don't like Hazel's track, so what? More power to u. What in the hell that has to do with George producing the Peppers is beyond me.

blackguitaristz said:

excellent point..even though I am guilty of digressing. Never knew one or two people had a lock on what is or is not funky.....

FuNkeNsteiN said:

FUNK IS A FEELING NOT JUST A CERTAIN SOUND. P-FUNK IN ALL THEIR ALIASES HAS FEEL. RHCP HAVE A FUNK FEEL TO ALOT OF THEIR ROCK. I FIRST SAW THE PEPPERS 1985 UPTOWN THEATRE KCMO. THEY WERE FUNKIN---PLAYING LET'S TAKE IT TO THE STAGE, SEX MACHINE AMONG THEIR FIRST TWO LPS.

UPLIFT MOFO PARTY PLAN IS STRAIGHT UP FUNK/ROCK ALA FUNKADELIC.

JIMI HENDRIX HAD THE FUNK, CREAM ETC. IT'S A FEEL

Thumparello said:

You're right. Funk is a feeling... and I ain't feeling the Peppers
