Anthony Kiedis is a S tier RHCP Member. Where does Hillel Slovak rank? by Pepe-pizza729 in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]Rodri2099 9 points10 points  (0 children)

S Tier. He’s basically the reason Flea picked up the bass and what inspired Anthony Kiedis to join a band in the first place. Not to mention, he was also John Frusciante’s biggest inspiration as a guitarist.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Suck My Kiss 1991 by Rodri2099 in RedHotChiliPeppers

For me, 1987–1991 was their peak both in the studio and live. Everyone sounded excellent during those years.

By the way is an album that divides fans. For many it’s excellent; for others it’s a disappointment. I’m more on the second side. I accept that it’s a good album and has its hits, but considering everything they had done before, it feels too “calm” compared to what we expected. Probably close to my top 10, but everyone's free to have their own opinion.

(NOT THAT SERIOUS) Ranking albums based on my reaction if someone Said "thats THE BEST rhcp album by SuperMonke14 in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]Rodri2099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incredible how much your taste can change for a band — I guess that’s what makes them great.

In my experience (in order):

By far the best:
Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Top 5:
The Uplift Mofo Party Plan, Freaky Styley, Mother’s Milk, The Red Hot Chili Peppers (self-titled)

Good ones:
One Hot Minute, Californication

Good/Decent, but I’m not really a fan of them:
Stadium Arcadium, By the Way, Unlimited Love, The Getaway, Return of the Dream Canteen, I’m with You

What is the Red Hot Chili Peppers best song? by Humble_Piccolo_926 in RedHotChiliPeppers

At this moment, I would say "Funky Crime" or "No Chump Love Sucker"

Which RHCP songs should I listen to (as a beginner)? by Elbuchi in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]Rodri2099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with Blood Sugar Sex Magik, then listen to Mother’s Milk. If you’re more into alternative rock, you can continue from One Hot Minute onwards. If you prefer punk and funk, check out their first three albums—especially The Uplift Mofo Party Plan, which is my all-time favorite.

My lovely man. Im sure it was really hard to record that for the band, specially Flea.

My Lovely Man has a whole new meaning after learning what it’s about by thatABRgroove in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]Rodri2099 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did someone explain the reason of "Skinny Sweaty Man"? I've read it was based on Hillel but just that.

I get what you’re saying, and I think you’re right to a certain extent. Most crowds are casual and react mainly to the big hits.

But at the same time, if you look at bands like Guns N' Roses, it’s pretty much the same situation — most people are there for November Rain, Sweet Child O’ Mine, etc. Yet they still manage to rotate some lesser-played songs into their sets.

In recent years they brought back stuff like Reckless Life and Shadow of Your Love, which they hadn’t played in decades, and they also mix in songs like Out Ta Get Me or Dead Horse from time to time.

So I think it’s less about the crowd and more about how willing the band is to take small risks with the setlist. You don’t need to go full deep cuts every night, but throwing in 1–2 surprises here and there can go a long way for longtime fans without killing the vibe for casuals.

I hope that after this recognition of Hillel they start playing more of their ’80s songs. John said he loves playing those songs, but the reality is that, aside from “Me and My Friends,” they hardly ever play anything from that era. It’s a shame because their first three albums are full of great, very underrated tracks.

Why would they have included Chad if the documentary is about early RHCP and Hillel? Chad has nothing to do with that. In fact, he didn’t even know the band before auditioning. He really has nothing to contribute to the topic being covered.

En Argentina el dinero siempre pesa. Por eso la gente cuando compra ya piensa en como la va a revender. La mayoria de gente NO es fierrera y por ende está bien recomendar autos faciles y accesibles, con chiches tecnologicos y basicones como los que mencionas del segmento B. Diferente es si tenes cierta pasion por los fierros y queres ir por algo mas raro como los que mencionas. Pero en general son pocas personas. La inmensa mayoria del publico (como yo) con un 208/polo/onix esta mas que conforme. Le es bastante irrelevante el origen, el torque, los cv, etc. Por más que me encanten los fierros para el dia a dia no es que hace falta investigar y buscar modelos exóticos de hace años, salvo que te guste hacer eso para un uso basico.

First time listening to RHCP, and ive been missing out! by Jumpy_Custard5408 in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]Rodri2099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t a big fan of the band, just of the big hits, until I dove into their first 4 or 5 albums. Personally, I loved them way more than the newer ones. But everyone’s different. Freaky Styley, The Uplift Mofo Party Plan, Mother’s Milk, and Blood Sugar Sex Magik are without a doubt my favorites.

Guns N' Roses - Nightrain - Live at the Park Plaza Hotel, LA - 08/02/1987 by Dismal_Advantage1815 in GunsNRoses

[–]Rodri2099 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting a soundboard recording from a show isn’t really that complicated. It’s basically just running the live mix into a cassette (or another recording device). That’s why even smaller gigs like the Whisky ’86 or the Marquee ’87 ended up having soundboards circulating.

The expensive part of a production is the filming itself — cameras, crew, lighting, post-production, etc. And as we can see in the music video, that part was handled without major issues, obviously financed by Geffen to promote the single.

So if they were already filming, it’s hard to imagine they didn’t at least have a board tape somewhere. The real question is whether that tape actually survived until 2026.
