Maggot Brain

A strange tune with a strange title. Found this on a YouTube comment: "Eddie Hazel came in the studio one day, a little down in the dumps I guess. And George just put Eddie in the middle of the floor and surrounded him with marshall amps and he just let him cry his heart out. He told Eddie to play like his mother had died, and thats whatch u got outta that, that's Maggot Brain " - Gary Shider "Eddie is an emotional guy, as good as a singer he is. he didn't sing on any of the album cause he would get half way through the song and just start crying" - George Clinton

Roberta Flack Is Killing Me Softly With Smoove

A short story about this song. On the way to a Blues festival me and my mom stopped at a greasy spoon for a bite to eat and they had a jukebox. Out of curiosity I walked over and seen this song and put in a few quarters and played it. I went and sat down and my mom was looking out the window, her eyes had that far away stare and then she said, "That's my favorite song". I said, "I know". "Fugees, eat your heart out" ~YouTube comment

One of my favorite Elton John songs. This version has the killer guitar. It should be the only version allowed any airplay. This version has the violins do the lead ... boo!
