I think one thing that a lot of people don’t realize, which compounded this state of mind he started to get into before he quit, was that his best friend Bill had died in a tragic accident in that time period. They lived together as roommates and played music together. Bill played an upright bass and was something of a virtuoso himself, and they had spoken about starting they’re own little weird musical project. Before they could ever make that happen Bill tragically died in an auto accident. The song Smile from the Streets you Hold is written about him.
Thanks for sharing. I always wondered what happened to Bill because John woukd mention him so frequently from 89 to 91. How do you know Bill died in a car accident? I always wondered what he thought of John dropping out of the band and getting on drugs
@@WhiteChocolate74 hey no problem! I have read and watched so many interviews and it’s hard to track down where, but I know it was mentioned very briefly somewhere in one of those. I can’t remember if Anthony mentioned it in “Scar Tissue” somewhere (I’m thinking maybe it was mentioned in there), but for sure, %100, he talked about it before he played Smile From the Streets you Hold at one of his solo live shows, I think La Scene in Paris 2001, and mentioned how the song was dedicated to Bill and was very emotional to him. Despite him having to restart the song a couple times it was such an amazing live performance of that song. And he plays the part that was dubbed over originally on the recordings. He said he felt that part of the song was too personal and dubbed over it for the album.
@@WhiteChocolate74 It wasn't Bill. I don't think he was a musician. It was a guy named Rob Hayes. They met when John was 15 or 16 when they enrolled in the guitar institute. And their weird avant-punk project was called the Three Amoebas. Stephen Perkins of Jane's Addiction and Dick Rude (on various found objects as percussion) were also members. Yes, the guy graduated as a sophomore.

johns the type of dude who can't be stuck doin one thing for too long or he starts losing his passion for it...I feel like everytime John "left the band" should have been like a "annual band hiatus" where everyone parts ways, does diffrent stuff outside of the peppers, than come back together when everyone is ready.
Seeing John Frusciante in this video is painful on an almost physical level. The only thing that struck me more than John's terrible mental and physical condition was his incredibly sparkling chemistry with Flea.
Yeah I had to put a warning at the start cause It's pretty awful seeing him in this way and flea and John's chemistry is unmatched it's a good thing hes much healthier now :)
@@joshuacobb3923 This period of John's life was so dark and tragic that it still remains a mystery to me how he survived. I admire how much John is connected to Flea.
I heard in an interview when he went to rehab They told him he should have died a while ago due to his body having no calcium so it is actually a miracle he is walking talking and still Playing I look up to him so much for the music and just his life . Long live John :)
@@joshuacobb3923 I read in one of the interviews (perhaps it was Flea, but I'm not quite sure) that John's health was so terrible that the doctors assumed the amputation of his hands. I remember when I read it, I cried all night. We all incredibly lucky that John Frushante is alive, healthy and continues to compose the most amazing songs! Long live John ❣️
It's so lucky he has escaped death A few times and has been left with Lots of scars but hey at least he is Still here making us happy that's all That matters
You know what I think ？ for a person that practice guitar for their whole life.. it open the net , so he can constantly downtown and translate music notes from he’s master for example jimmy Hendrix
Stay Away from heroin , opioids, coke etc. it's a waste of time . Stay away from any hard drugs they'll only make it harder to stay clean . I recently quite smoking weed and cigarettes and even then it was pretty tricky, but you'll be fine if you take care of yourself and your mental strength!
@@andrewcruz7595 havent tried anything other than alcohol and cigarettes and im not addicted to them completely. dont smoke cigarettes, i drink alcohol sometimes with my friends. me and my friends want to try weed together for the first time lately but havent tried it yet. we dont really have a suitable environment/life to be addicted to weed anyways so i really dont think we would be addicted to weed at all. just want to try it before going to college. i turned 17 2 months ago btw.
@@aleksastamenkovic5526 i tried 3-4 times every time i get a little bit higher than last time but its nothing compared to alcohol. my body and mind is strong enough i guess. cause alcohol doesnt effect me as much as any other person i drink with even tho we consume the same amount i always get less drunk
Yeah if you look at him in 1991 and him there in that documentary he doesn't even look like himself Frail and weak it's sad how much the drugs changed him.
It comes to mind to say : It’s nice and seems only right and respectful not to add your own personality and voice to tell the facts , letting the raw material, interviews and such tell the story of these peoples lives . I wish to see more content like this . Thank you.
What???? 🤦♂️ they could not help that their album blew up and them becoming bigger than what John wanted them to be. John is a very tricky, and emotionally stubborn human being. Even when he quit, flea would still be in contact and visit him very often. You can’t save someone who refuses to be saved. He is the type of person who is going to do what he wants to do until he’s ready to quit. Whether it be playing in a big rock band or using drugs. We just have to be thankful that he chose to quit drugs for good with the help of Flea n Anthony, and in the end, choosing to come back to the band. They all love and care deeply about each other. That’s why they always end up back together again. It’s ignorant and naive to place any blame on Flea, Anthony or Chad 🤦♂️
Thanks so much for your sincere love and support for our music this shows your a strong die hard fan...your special..Have you been to any of our shows?
Pretty impressive. My point is the fourth dimension is really the separate reality and warriorship. Sometimes people act like balls and bounce against other ones. The ticket is -- did you know that would happen?
It was a drink that JOHNNY DEPP supposedly concocted and handed it to John to pass to Phoenix. Bc apparently all of them were drinking that shit. They were just too fucked up themselves and uneducated to think about the strength of the drink or to look out after him after drinking it. River wasn’t stupid, he knew that they weren’t just giving him a regular drink of plain whisky. But he didn’t know exactly what was all in it and how much was in it, sadly. The only reason he went inside of the viper room that night was to score more drugs and jam with Johnny Depp/Flea. He was already high on something before going inside from what his girlfriend said. He shouldn’t have been so careless but he was broken at that time and still very young and naive, as well as Depp, John, and his other close friends were. They were all so immature, too self absorbed, and clueless about what anyone else was going through or getting high on. They were all just addicts or drug lovers and did whatever they could to escape and feel good. You have to hold everyone accountable for what Happened, even river and his girlfriend. You can’t just point your finger to one person 🤦♂️
Incredibly telling that he gives no credit to Chad or anthony for their part in creating blood sugar sex magic. Sure he was in a dark place at the time but it sure seems intentional.
Yeah idk I'm sure he didn't mean it but throughout the interview it sounds like he really despises Anthony not so much Chad but I'm sure he would think differently now
To be fair, did you ever watch the doc of them recording bssm? John worked his ass off, and you could see him getting frustrated at times that the others weren't listening or weren't focusing as much as he was. He went celibate and went through a weird phase of extreme dedication to the album, and to be, again, fair, he's highly responsible for all the best parts of the album. There wouldn't be a bssm without him, or it wouldnt have been nearly as successful. You also hear him at the end sort of not knowing what to do now that he's dedicated so much time to this thing and now he has to go back out into the world. He's not happy about it. The whole doc is really interesting, you can see the dynamics of the band in those earlier days. I love them all, but John, along with Flea, carry the band.
And I wish people would stop giving him any kind of credit for the garbage solo albums he put out during his drug days. None of it is good. It's not avant garde. It's just a sick sick man rambling and screaming and it should never have even seen the light of day.
I think there's a few good songs on their not my go to albums but some aren't of the songs aren't bad Like mascara or been insane on niandra lades but not nearly as good as his 2000s albums
@@joshuacobb3923 I will have to revisit it. But when I listened back in the day it seemed like a disturbed man ranting and raving although quite passionately. The sound quality didn't help
Yeah I understand not everybodys taste but when I listen to it I feel it's more storytelling I just like hearing his guitar and his voice very dark time for him but it is very unique
How lucky are we to be witnessing Johns return? Many Peppers' fans weren't so lucky. I feel grateful to be alive!

That matters
He looks like a completely different person at each stage of his life.
Its really crazy how different he looked when he was using bad, didnt even look like him anymore.
Technically he is very good, but it's his inventive and distinct song writing that makes him a great guitarist
Always loved that interview of his, being at the roof top, talking about clean pure energy. Thanks for this great editing and all. Peace out

It's like he went from John the Gray, to John the White after defeating Balrog in his dark days lol

Bad edit split second of a clip
Why did he leave in 2009?
Wow!
You could tell John is just not into it at all at 6:06. That solo is absolutely trash, and has no kind of good energy in it whatsoever.
