- Maggot Brian - Funkadelic Cover by Brian Kmetz
I worked on this for about a week but not sure I'm in love with this take. If you guys dig it please show some love and I'll keep it up! Probably another take coming soon

I've been playing guitar for 30 years now and whenever someone who is new to playing asks me for lessons or tips I just tell them to learn all the parts to Maggot Brain. Once you have that down you know as much and are as good as anyone out there.
Amen.thats all folks
Lol for real? I’ve only got barre chords down but I could see learning this song teaching you pretty much everything about finger style
"Know as much and are as good as anyone out there"
I'm sorry, but WHAT? It's one of the most iconic guitar solos of all time and Eddie Hazel was incredible, but literally about 95% of it is E minor pentatonic.
@@mrrec0very956 bro no it doesnt, this song just teaches you how to use scales, mainly pentatonic.
@@akiroai6577I mean, yes you're correct. Beside the fact it let you learn vibrato, bending , tempo, dynamics,intervals, emotion and so on. Y'all can't say it is a basic Em pentatonic scale solo AND one of the most iconic solo in the same sentences. there is way more to it 🤘
i heard the producer told him, “play like your mother just died”. this gave me chills down my spine!!
George Clinton the master mind behind Funkadelic
while he was on lsd
the title comes from the fact that the producer found his brothers decomposed corpse
adds another layer of meaning doesnt it?
The reason George telling him to play like his mother had just died was translated so well into music is because, when your tripping, you kind of believe anything, or make up your own beliefs in seconds if you hear something that would affect you. Beliving your mother has just died, while tripping, would be a complete mind fuck. As someone In these replies said, near the end of the solo, he likely realised thst he had just told him to play LIKE his mother had just died, not that she actually had, which is why the solo ends less dark than when it starts
@@Hi-wv2ixactually it was, " play as if your mother had died but you found out she was still alive", or something to that affect 😢
Why doesn't this guy have a million views?
cuz people are lame
This guitar solo is like telling someone your own life story throuhg the musical instrument, but theres one condition the level of performance has to be exactly like this one.., really beautifull.
when i share this song with someone, and they don't really 'get it' i know we probably won't vibe well. absolutely just nailed the emotion. Eddie would be proud
This is insane! You're never gonna be completely satisfied with 13 minutes of improvisation, but it's fantastic!
Unless you're Eddy van Hazel ofcourse
I'm trying to figure how to play this thru my guitar speaker
I can play this in my sleep.... I'm dreaming of course.
In May of 2020 my little brother passed away from overdose, this was one of the background tracks to my life at the time. I had many painful, tear filled drives as I listened to this. Great job, in the top 2 covers of this I have seen.
i'm so incredibly sorry to hear about your brother.
I'm so sorry for your brother.
I’m so sorry to hear that, may he rest in peace and in the kingdom of god.
Insane. Dude you made that Strat absolute cry , as well as everyone who seen this smh
This put the chills in the right spots with the correct passion. Ever Funkin’ On!
I'm sorry we couldn't see his mean guitar mug! I bet it was epic too lol
Yep!
I. Go. To bed. Lisneg. To. It. Played
Eddie Hazel would be proud
Brian, this is probably the best cover of this song I've ever heard. It made me cry. (Seems like I'm not the only one here who had that reaction ;)). Keep up the great work!
This is actually the best god damned playing I have ever heard
This is a perfect , however, Funky with souls 13 minute maggot brain improv goes way up from there. angry emotional with Incredible everything and not one bad note in 13 minutes. there. It’s probably the best cover.
Best cover of Maggot Brain on TH-cam. Fax
This is a perfect ten, however, Funky with souls 13 minute maggot brain improv goes way up from there. angry emotional with Incredible everything and not one bad note in 13 minutes. there. It’s probably the best cover.
This could bring a tear to a man's eye. Amazing cover
I'm going to fall over dead ❤ if I don't quit binging on everybody playing
Maggot Brain ❤
But I'm going to keep doing it anyway I don't know who you are buddy but man you're wicked feeling it!
Man i cried
Just finished my first year of guitar. This my favorite guitar song, if I could ever play this I would be so damn proud. Congratulations man this is amazing
You can play it. It’s not about making it sound like the original, it’s telling your own story
@@garfield4863 beautifully said
Can you play it now?
Learn your minor pentatonic, you'll be able to play this.
It’s not hard ! Just need time to practice 😂
BRO !! 🔥👍Eddie just woke up , smiled , rolled over and went back to sleep ..
Gasp* This is my all-time fav solo with Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb. But this cover is something else, it's beyond the time, I can't even put my emotions into words. Teared me up.
