I've heard any number of guitar players try their hand at "Maggot Brain" with varying results. Cline's take on it is amongst my favorites.
And speaking, at least in a way, of Eddie Hazel...

Here's a couple more passable renditions:
Although the second one is really more inspired by EH than a cover.
Love both of those.Originally Posted by tunghaichuan
Here's another one that's not precisely a cover, but a tribute to Hazel that certainly pays homage to "Maggot Brain."

I'm listening to a band I recently discovered; a band called Misery Signals.
The song by Misery Signals is "Reverence Lost"

Was very happy to read earlier that these guys have a new one due out in April.

But - going to have to check out that 'Explosions In The Sky' - I keep hearing about them and have yet to follow up . . .

pedalbuilder, interested to hear your thoughts once you've listened to some EITS.

Kicking Television: Live in Chicago
Never owned any of their music until now. Not enjoying the useless noise thrown in the middle of otherwise good music.

I'm really enjoying this album.

So far I like it. I've given 'All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone' a straight run-through this morning and there's some cool stuff here. I'll need to give it a few more listens before I really form an opinion . . . what stands out the most, so far, is that I really, really like the drum sounds - I mean the way the drums are recorded and how they sit in the mix. It adds a lot. Of course there are a thousand great guitar sounds happening too - and I always appreciate that!Originally Posted by R_of_G
