Time to cut the seal on a new one (to me). Apparently Eddie Hazel died at only 42. RIP.
From Wikipedia….
Edward Earl Hazel (April 10, 1950 – December 23, 1992) was an American guitarist and singer in early funk music who played lead guitar with Parliament-Funkadelic.[1][2] Hazel was a posthumous inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, inducted in 1997 with fifteen other members of Parliament-Funkadelic.[3] His ten-minute guitar solo in the Funkadelic song "Maggot Brain" is hailed as "one of the greatest solos of all time on any instrument".[4] In 2015, Rolling Stone ranked Hazel at no. 83 in its list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists.[5]
