I love RHCP and I was disappointed after finding out that there weren't a lot of tracks on this cd and that a lot of the songs were the slower ones. They are a great, diverse band with lots of different types of songs and I think this CD did not do the diversity a favor.

Alright, so you've probably heard a lot about this album and this band but I think this album and the band deserve so much credit. If you haven't really listened to anything off this album yet, I'm going to convince you to. Read on.

This amazing album has two disks: Jupiter and Mars; both fantastic. Its sound is way different than previous RHCP albums but still keeps they're original style and flair. With crazy bass lines from bassist Flea and funky guitar rifts from guitarist John Frusciante, this album is packed with creativity and has something for everyone. Drums are always great too when you got Chad Smith on them; one of the few guys in rock music these days that keeps a smile on his face.

Songs like "Dani California" and "She's only 18" are a couple of the ... Read More

How can this not get five stars from someone? It takes many, many listens and all the songs grow on you at their own rates. My favorites are the title track, Universally Speaking, Dosed, The Zephyr Song, Cabron, On Mercury, Minor thing, and Venice Queeen, which are all essential. This group has taken it upon themselves to get our generation out of the shadows of the Beatles the Doors, and Hendrix. Fortunately, they are succeeding. Stadium Arcadium is also very good.

Now, to set the record straight, I only started listening to RHCP's music after Californication and I was weaned on hits like GET ON TOP and DON'T STOP. The poppy (for lack of a better word) sound of their music from that album onwards were what got me hearing them in the first place. I never knew what albums like One Hot Minute and Blood Sugar Sex Magik sounded like. So I thought why not start on some of them.

So there I was, listening to One Hot Minute and I thought it really sucked. I was convinced it sucked because it sounded so different from their latter albums. I also knew the hype of this album before I plunged in, Dave Navvaro taking over as lead guitarist and all that, so I was prepared to hate it alot.

But I started listening more. Then I started listening more after that. The sounds ... Read More

Before the Red Hot Chili Peppers were synonymous with Californication (1999), By the Way (2002), and Stadium Arcadium (2006), they were best known for "The Rockin' Freakapotamus" sound of their fourth album, Mother's Milk (1989), which is a in-your-face fusion of guitar-driven rock, funk, metal, punk, rap, and southern California testosterone. Mother's Milk was the first RHCP album featuring John Frusciante (who rocks out with almost overpowering guitars) and drummer Chad Smith, and includes covers of Hendrix's "Fire," "Castles Made of Sand," and "Crosstown Traffic," and a cover of Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground." The remastered edition of Mother's Milk has never sounded better. Complete album setlist includes:

1. Good Time Boys (2003 Digital Remaster) 5:01
2. Higher Ground (2003 Digital Remaster) 3:22

Used Price: $5.99

Freak Styley was RHCP's second album, and I feel it was the weakest of the original trilogy. A lot of the tracks here were throwaways that didn't make the cut for the first album (albeit freshly re-recorded for this record). It's like the saying goes-- "If they weren't good enough the first time, what makes them good enough now?" Luckily these "throwaways" aren't AWFUL or anything, they are just kind of mediocre & forgettable. At least most are only 1 minute long or thereabouts.

All that said, there is still some great stuff on Freaky Styley. The first four songs are without a doubt the highlight of the record and stand to this day along with some of the band's best work, most notably the incredible "American Ghost Dance" which forshadowed a sound the band would employ years later on BloodSugarSexMagik and even as recently as Stadium ...

No question the Red Hot Chili Pepper's best work. It's a pity it had to be the last with original founding guitarist Hillel Slovak.

Party Plan's greatness hits you from the first glance at the cover right through to the last track. You know it's going to be great before you even peel off the shrinkwrap. It's one powerful, driving song after another. If this album doesn't get you pumped up, you're a lost cause. I'm not going to do a song-by-song breakdown because they are all killer. This was the band's creative peak IMO, and the music reflects that. The cover is a perfect depiction of the soundscape the tracks convey to your eardrums. My only beef with Party Plan is that it's too short.

I highly recommend Party Plan for any RHCP fans who like their later album BloodSugarSexMagik. Party Plan is like the older brother to that record, ... Read More

RHCP had been kicking around in various forms for a number of years before getting signed to Capitol records and releasing their debut album in 1984. The band (wisely) decided to select the best 11 songs in their library to record for the new album. The self-titled debut still sounds fresh almost 25 years after it's initial release. For a debut release, the record is surprisingly consistent throughout, much more so than the less-than-stellar followup Freaky Styley which consisted mainly of cover songs and songs that didn't make the cut for this debut release. This album introduces a number of RHCP's unique qualities that would be staples of their music up through the BloodSugarSexMagik era (Kiedis' fast rap delivery over Flea's fast slap/plucking bass). The album proves to be one of group's better 80s efforts, second only to the phenomenal Uplift Mofo Party Plan. ... Read More
