Maggot Brain

Maggot Brain

Eddie Hazels raw unbridled talent 
Exquisitely painting a masterpiece of sound
An iconic album cover
Of a screaming Afro head on the ground

A sorrowful soulful 
Outpouring of electric grief 
Soundwaves so pure 
Exposing language of love beneath

Contaminated lysergic thoughts
Creating haunting riffs so bliss 
A mind blowing symphony
Poured out through nirvanian fingertips

Bereavement, psychedelics & music
A searing symphony of ecstasy and pain
False news of the death of a mother
Gave birth to Maggot Brain

Syd Barrett, 
Awesome dedication to a spectacular guitarist. Thank you for sharing that, I really enjoyed it(I'm still listening). 
Love the title, too. I have that exact same brain! I'm not wearing it today(I've got my depressive one in), but I may tomorrow. 

Great job Syd! 

Matthew.

Thank you so much Mathew.

I couldn't believe that I hadn't heard that track before until recently...It blew my mind.
