That recording is the only official live document of the band's classic early era, the stretch when they were less a funk group than a full-blown psychedelic rock assault with a rhythm section that could level a building.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe lineup alone tells the story. George Clinton leads the circus, Eddie Hazel is on guitar at the height of his powers, Bernie Worrell works the keys, and Billy \"Bass\" Nelson holds down the low end. The show also marks the first recorded appearances of guitarist Harold Beane and drummer Tyrone Lampkin with the group, catching Funkadelic in the middle of a lineup shift. \"Maggot Brain\" gets the long, searing treatment you would hope for, and \"I Got A Thing, You Got A Thing, Everybody's Got A Thing\" turns into an extended, wide-open jam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat makes the set so valuable is the timing. This is Funkadelic between identities: still raw, loud, and unpredictable, but already pointing toward the P-Funk powerhouse that would fill arenas a few years later. Drawn from the original soundboard master tapes, it is unpolished in the best way, a band improvising without a net.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis deluxe 2LP edition presents the complete, unedited performance, newly remastered by Dave Gardner and pressed on Cosmic Teal and Atomic Red vinyl. It comes in updated gatefold packaging with new cover artwork by Damon Locks and includes Rob Bowman's extensive liner notes, originally written for the 1996 CD release. For anyone who wears out copies of Maggot Brain, this is the missing piece.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl","offer_id":50577790861474,"sku":null,"price":46.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/5024\/3490\/files\/ORGM2376.jpg?v=1791312206","url":"https:\/\/staticatx.com\/es\/products\/funkadelic-live-at-meadowbrook-1971","provider":"Static ATX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
