Funkadelic Maggot Brain

Originally released in 1971, Maggot Brain is the landmark masterpiece from Funkadelic and one of the most influential albums in the history of funk, rock and psychedelic music.

Led by the visionary George Clinton, Funkadelic shattered musical boundaries with an audacious blend of searing guitar work, deep funk grooves, soul, gospel and mind-expanding psychedelia. At the heart of the album is the iconic title track, featuring Eddie Hazel's breathtaking guitar performance—widely regarded as one of the greatest guitar recordings ever committed to tape. Alongside classics including Can You Get To That, Hit It And Quit It and Super Stupid, the album continues to inspire generations of musicians across countless genres.

Initially overlooked upon its release, Maggot Brain has since earned universal acclaim as one of the defining albums of the 1970s and a cornerstone of modern popular music. Its fearless experimentation and emotional depth remain as powerful today as they were over five decades ago.

This definitive 2026 reissue has been mastered directly from the original analogue tapes, delivering the warmth, depth and dynamic range of the original recordings with remarkable fidelity. A true holy grail for collectors, Maggot Brain finally receives the all-analogue treatment it has long deserved.
