Title: WHAT MUSIC IS GOOD?
Post by: MAN OF BLUES on May 25, 2013, 10:42:27 PM: just messing around up here in Ohio, and listening to classic $#!+
radio show ended with MAGGOT BRAIN.... a song I loved and grew up with, now I always had great respect for George clinton/ Funkmaster/ Funkenstien...and deided to go back in time....
now I understand some of you don't get "black" music, but my forum name says different, and will set it straight....
fell upon this...

o.m.g.

you don't like it, fine, but this is classic.

1976.... f'n a
how Dr Funk got Sly Stone to dress so gay is still beyound me... but this stuff is beyound real.

wow.
waste an hour, and enjoy some serious FUNK.

just gott joke about G. Clinton, he played a street party in 68 where I lived in a ghetto of cleveland...it is funny seeing a vid of him, filmed a year later

alll this aside, he was a force to contend with in modern music, always original, and never a dull moment...

this is a recent renditition

not the origiginal. as I noted, living in Cleveland makes us a bit more specific on a bands heirarchy.... and well it should... we ain't the Nielson family...
(if we were, rock would have died when Elvis did, on the toilet......)

sorry, just have to add one of my favrit musicions rendiciscions of this song.... Warren Haynes version...

Post by: MAN OF BLUES on June 01, 2013, 10:33:41 PM: just wanna e'splian why I posted this...
to start I was born and raised in Celeveland.... now some of you may think that as a curse, but not to be dimissed.
I lived in what was called 'the ghetto", but in all actuality we lived in a mansion, albeit displaced over time, the house was built and customized by the founder of Lincoln Electric....yeah, it was a home I grew up in, my parents bought it during the depression, and we lived there until the the first moon landing..... ourhouse was broken into and looted that same weekend, while we were re-furbing an even older home 30 miles out of cleveland.....

with this said, growing up in Cleve-Burg, and attending schools that risked my life every waking moment, I escaped into rock / blues music.
we moved, and I grew up from that point in an environment of redneck Hicks..... they were all pu$$ises compared to the violence I lived with in cleveland, and I scared the $#!+ outta all of them.... which made me a god. to me it was the norm, go figure.
Re-lo'd to Va for my work in 02, and came back here in 11'...ahh back home at last...
man, with the radio blasting "Sultans of swing", I continue typing....
Now, back in Cleve-burg, we have a rock station that on Saturday nights, produces and maintains a "Call-in" show hosted by "Mr. Classic", and it does play some awesome, and obscure music....to say the least.

the show ALWAYS ends with Maggot Brain..... before this show was on the air, the number 1 (#1) show nationwide, broadcast out of C' town, was on WMMS, The Home Of The Buzzard.... and every week, late night Friday, they closed with Maggot Brain.....

I lived in Virginia for 10 years and never heard this song during that time...tha's f'd up

it's nice to once again, re-livemy life... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 40 years of Maggot Brain.

I'm sure Strwawboss and Pokey can relate....

cleveland DOES rock.
