Maggot Brain ranked #09 in the top 100 best guitar solo's of all
time.
According to legend, P-Funk mastermind George Clinton told guitarist Eddie Hazel to play the opening track of Funkadelic’s 1971 album as if he’d just been told his mother died. The result is the sort of heartbreaking, mind-bending instrumental that feels like a transmission of pure, uncut grief. A self-taught guitarist who worshipped Jimi Hendrix, Hazel contributed a lot to the P-Funk canon. But the nearly 10-minute guitar solo that kicks off their dark, troubling, yet still groovy-as-f**k 1971 LP is still the cornerstone of his legacy. Notes are not played so much as wept and wrenched out of his instrument; Hazel eventually conjures a sense of perseverance, rising phoenix-like from the ashes of his echo pedals in the final minutes. “It’s a piece of music to evoke the ghosts of the past,” Living Colour’s Vernon Reid said. “It evokes the suffering. It evokes the joy. It’s a masterwork.” —D.F.
