    0:19 - There's a documentary film called FUNKY MONKS, Rick. I've owned it on VHS for something approaching 30 years. Check it out! It's hilarious. BTW - "If You Have To Ask" is the best song on this album. I was lucky enough to see RHCP touring Blood Sugar at The State Theater in Kalamazoo MI. Pearl Jam opened. Smashing Pumpkins was the 2nd act. RHCP took the stage as headliner and when they went into the title track (Chad Smith's opening drum riff), the whole place was jumping up and down IN UNISON. 1500 people got the best show in 20 years that night (this was when they had the light bulbs on their heads). The only other time I saw crowd participation like that was George Clinton and the P-Funk Allstars at the Fillmore in San Francisco. The place was packed shoulder to shoulder and jumping in unison to THE ONE.

But the point Brendan was making was that if you have a great player, it doesn’t matter if the eq is perfect, if the reverb could be turned a little up or down, if it could have used a little less drive etc. John Frusciante is going to make it sound good. All those things could be perfect for the recording but a lesser player still won’t sound good.

    Blood Sugar Sex Magic is one of the most original and unique albums ever recorded and it’s loaded with great song writing and musicianship. I think it essentially distills and defines the RHCP sound better than any other album and is also almost the only reason I say I’m an RHCP fan. I do like One Hot Minute for the most part, but I think Californication is vanilla.

    If you’re into the old hippie counterculture movement of the late 60’s early 70’s, you should check out the area. Frank Zappa, Joni Mitchell, Jim Morrison, Cass Elliot and many others, lived there.
    Jim Morrison and Joni Mitchell’s houses are both still standing. There’s a little country store that was kind of the focal point with some of these guys that jam sessions and Jim Morrison even wrote about it in the song left street.
    The neighborhood is the same name as the street: Laurel Canyon.
    Pop Smoke was killed over there too.

      I would argue the instrumental section of Rage against the machine as being on par with Rhcp, in terms of how tight they could groove together and their by themselves. I'm sure there are others ,even more technically advanced groups ..thinking of all the jazz and prog ensembles of that era ..even this era. But in terms of rock music and with the criteria, they have that level of recognizable individual sound, nothing current comes to mind. I'll happily hear out some suggestions though.

    I read from an interview in guitarplayer or sumtin from about the time that BSSM got released that they used in this song a trick that they learned from janes addictions "been caught Stealing" Which is to put a microphone really close to the strings of a unplugged electric guitar. And record that. A true clean sound, if you will. Sounds very thin and boxy. but in a nice kind of way. Only thing is that if this guy does not mention it, I am doubting my memory. You can hear the effect of this recording technique better if you listen to Been Caught stealing by jane's addiction. I am pretty sure that this guy just does not remember, and I am correct. :D

      I have used that technique of putting a mic close to the electric guitar strings and it sounds really great

      Frusciante was using small fender 10w practice amps no. Stop during the recording, often a Fender "H.O.T" - same effect really, a very clean, in your face boxy sound. Really unique tones all over the album and yeah I'd suspect Jane's addiction was the inspiration for sure

    Great record but in hindsight Mother‘s Milk is their best record. Can’t listen to BSSM anymore but Mother’s Milk doesn’t get old.

    The 1 thing the newer chili peppers albums are missing is that beautiful reverb on the drums. Their songs arent terrible but i always imagine them with blood sugar drum mix. The drums just dont pop like they used to.

    Post drugs RHCP songs are so depressing 😑
    I mean I’m glad they’re doing well but like what happened? They used to make such lively interesting music and then they all got sober and went down the emo path 🙄 One Hot Minute is their last good album and Dave Navarro’s contribution is highly underrated. I feel like he doesn’t get the praise he deserved for all the guitar work on that album. He was a perfect fit musically for RHCP after he left
    Jane’s Addiction.

      Wondered about this too, as far as i can tell the room mic(s) were going through a Drawmer gate unit that was triggered externally by Chads snare drum mic. So each snare hit triggered the gate unit to open the mics for x amount of time giving the natural reverb of the room.

      That makes sense. Thank you so much for clearing that up for me.
      I might have to redo my degree!

    Not using the reverb did wonders for this album. Such a big difference in sound from Mother's Milk.
