Maggot brain live, whats the best one?

I kind of wanted to throw this question out on the forum. I know its a matter of prefference but, what is your favorite maggot brain that was recorded?

Would say the version from Meadowbrook 1971. Magical.

I also really like the intro to the Beverly Theater version. Maceo on flute and then Bernie starts playing the guitar part on keyboard. And of course Clintons intro on that.

I was listening to this this morning, George Clinton 09 15 1996 Austin Texas and that one was pretty stellar! I can upload if anyone wants it. I forgot about the beverly theater!

Yeah that version is great as well. I love it when GC does that Rhythm and Rhyme rap at the end of Maggot Brain.

Rhythm and rhyme
Rhythm and rhyme
Rhythm and motherfuckin’ rhymes

There’s a stream of that show in this topic.

I remember buying Uncle Jam or One Nation LP vinyl and Maggot Brain Live was a bonus 45. Its been a while but that version “Live” was the best to me.

Impossible for me to say. From what’s been actually released commercially, gotta go with the Anti-tour Howard Theatre versions from '78.
