no doubt. indesputable.
You know, when they weren't trying to take themselves seriously...
Mother's Milk is where they jumped tha shark, tho I still enjoy it. Downhill from there, mos' def.
BSSM had its moments, but was RIFE with identity crisis. Am I serious? Am I kooky? ugh. Keidis, stop trying to sing. |

Besides the furious fatness of Flea's Wal, I also dug the sound of Chad's drums a lot, it's the best recorded sound he ever had, in my opinon.
Now that I've read your first post again, from a bass player's perspective, I kind of feel Mother's Milk contains his trickiest lines, although I don't dig it at all as an album for some reason.

I think fruciante is the best and his guitar just works so well with the bass and even though it isn't super fast slap and super funk it is a bunch of nice cool grooves that just sound good.

|  | I'm a tumbler, born under punches | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Northern California | | | One of my two bands is my old covers/originals band which has reformed to be a Red Hot Chili Peppers tribute band. A bit of an odd deal for me as I like RHCP but wouldn't rank them as one of my favorite bands. But on the whole it's a lot more fun than playing the majority of our previous setlist, especially from a bass perspective.
That said, my favorite album is BSSM without question. But in terms of funky bass playing, Freaky Styley should get a mention too. Brother's Cup, Nevermind, Jungle Man and American Ghost Dance are classic Flea funk, not to mention Sly and Meters covers in If You Want Me To Stay and Hollywood. Plus Blackeyed Blonde is a workout. |

the really old stuff is a bit weird sometimes, but there are great songs there too.

Best record: Uplift Mofo Party Plan, hands down don't bother to even ask the question. They matured with BSSM, but I don't see that as a good thing.
The true freaky deaky peppers died with Hillel, man I miss him!
