The most BONKERS opening ten seconds for any album. Maggots and drowining in your own shit probaboy was the expected norm as album openers go back in 1971. THis is going to sound terribly, terribly wrong: Maggot Brain reminds me of a black Pink Floyd. For that reason alone I love it.

Amazing stuff. It's so loose and so tight simultaneoulsy. Funky as all get-out, fantastic arrangements, and with great melodies (other than the opener, which I must admit threw me at first). Am almost at a loss for words to describe it but discovering this made my day. So good I played it twice.
