From Funkadelic's 1971 release of the same name.
According to legend, during the recording session band leader George Clinton told guitarist Eddie Hazel to imagine he had been told his mother was dead, but then learned that it was not true. The result was the 10-minute guitar solo for which Hazel is most fondly remembered by many music critics and fans. Though several other musicians began the track playing, Clinton soon realized how powerful Hazel's solo was and faded them out so that the focus would be on Hazel's guitar. Critics have described the solo as, "an emotional apocalypse of sound."
The track was recorded in one take.
This music was brought to my attention by Rambo28 in a comment left on one of my other videos in which there is some light hearted debate regarding raw guitar solos. This is about as raw as it gets.
The visuals have no relation to the back story of the song, just something funky to look at while listening. I used 2 video editors, Pinnacle Ultimate 15 and Cyberlink PowerDirector 10 for the effects.
