It’s funny because he’s dead serious. He’s always seen the peppers as super nostalgic music that was bigger than him that he’s adding to. He’s always thought so highly of the guys
@@randall9000 they still play hillel stuff wdym? they just know that their 80s shit like is not at all relevant anymore and they have a lot of songs that are bigger that people like more and not to mention new songs. theyve been playing classics these past tours john definitely still appreciates that era of the peppers.. its just kinda in the past none of them stem off that style they had then other than flea really and even with him its changed a lot and also god knows what Anthony sounds like these days when he does his 80s rappiing voice... no bueno. i am just thinking of him singing tru men dont kill coyotes and its just... funny
Flea and John compliment each other so well because John often plays really high whilst Flea is often cranking those mids and playing so hard to create a really sharp but balanced mid range. John and Flea alternate in and out of that space but they're always working in tandem to create a musical salad, instead of other Bassist who just add behind the guitar to beef up the musical soup.
You can hear it. It’s what made the two parts work so well together. I love them so much. I don’t listen to them non stop like when I was I kid, but I might go on a binge. I need to see them live. They were everything to me for most of my life.
@@ballsballsballs3617well he had to kinda relearn how to play for Californication, his heroin abuse effected his creativity and guitar playing In incomprehensible ways
In the chilli community he's overrated. The world doesn't find him to be some jimi which he isn't and that's fine. Great band great music so what more could one ask for.
I ❤JF! I can’t get enough of his music; he’s an underrated genius! In my mind he ranks with past masters like Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven. And his voice is SO beautifully angelic.
Whaa- have you heard his solo albums after he left RHCP in the mid 90s? His hands had more life in it than anything else in his body, and in his second solo album his hands worked mostly so he could pay for some more heroin to inject
I love John frusciante so much, so happy to see him back in the band. Josh did a lot of great stuff for the band, no hate on him whatsoever, but I’m glad John got to come back. All these guys are awesome
@@kdarko88he does !! He holds himself to a higher standard - his genius may never be fully realized - but he’s a kind sensitive person too - I think that endears him even more !!
Awesome to see them all together and healthy. I remember when John of on smack. Under the bridge sometimes is where we drew some blood.❤ Peppers forever
If you play in a funk based rhythm heavy rock band, like the Chili Peppers, you’re a tight-knit beat team. Ego is left at the door, you have to serve the song and make people move their asses.
I notice frusciante will say things and he seems to be dead serious but everyone around him will laugh as if he’s joking but the guys dropping gems all over the place. Not so much this interview (although this is one example) but still
tbh were just so lucky this guy is still alive and talking with his band making sense, healthy and that RHCP still lives on as one of the greatest band ever..
I see the bass too. Also drums. I grew up playing drums so I hear the drums first in everything I do. I play a little guitar. But ai hear the drums follow bass and vice versa. Everyone is different it just follows your ear.
Flea is one of my all time favorite musicians. Not only is he really good at his craft he’s got one of the coolest personalities. Just seems like a really good dude
You can really tell in John's playing. He's really the embellishment of the band and really glues all of the sonics of the band together after Flea's bass lol!
Drums and bass are root for all the songs i have ever heard that uses guitar, bass and drums. As an ex guitar player myself, i used a guitar to decorate songs and listened to bass and drums to enjoy them
The music style and song should define which instrument shines and when. It’s music, when it comes to this kind of stuff, there are no rules. I can see why he says that with a band like RHCP though.
The sign of a great band is a great bassist. The bass really sets tone of song and is the peanut butter to the drums and guitars wonder bread. When I can’t figure out what I love so much about a band that would otherwise be described as simple or unsophisticated, it’s always the bass lines. Why British bands are so great
I’ve said for over a decade that flea thrives in an environment where the guitarist is the rhythm part and creates a sonic background for flea to do what he needs
Bass first bands come up with some of the best music. Look at the police, the front man Sting was a Bassist and so a lot of the music was written around his bass lead resulting is some beautiful funky beachy unique music
Not everyones bass player is flea haha
Very true.. ;)
Seriously❤
That's the exactly same sentence pop in my mind when I see this short 😂
and not everyone's guitarist is john mother fucking frusciante
@@HiimDave123 simmer down nah...
I love how everyone laughs when the guitarist acknowledges that bass exists 😂
To be fair when the bass is as good as flea there must be acknowledgment
@@tomrod2569, honestly speaking!
What kind of band are you in? Like, what genre of music is it?
@@Vonlicktenstien I'm not in a band i live in a small ass town so theres like 2 other musicians that can actually play. Wish i was tho lol
That’s not why there laughing but okay
Glad to see John looking healthy
though life left some scars on him
Bit plastic and shiny lol. but yea, he looks great.
he been around flea so much he even sounds like him now
Omg man I was thinking the same thing lmao
I love listening to both of them John on Flea's podcast ❤️ they do sound the same
Fleas are leads and the rest just scratch ❤😂
It is interesting just how similar their voices are now nowadays, hasn’t always been the case.
That’s so true
John biggest motivation on being in RHCP is to jam with Flea and it's beautiful :)
It’s funny because he’s dead serious. He’s always seen the peppers as super nostalgic music that was bigger than him that he’s adding to. He’s always thought so highly of the guys
Well he was once just a fan like all of us 😁
Except One Hot Minute. That’s not bigger than him. And basically all Hillel stuff now
This is why they have such a good chemistry as a band I've never seen another band improvise as good as rhcp
@@randall9000 they still play hillel stuff wdym? they just know that their 80s shit like is not at all relevant anymore and they have a lot of songs that are bigger that people like more and not to mention new songs. theyve been playing classics these past tours john definitely still appreciates that era of the peppers.. its just kinda in the past none of them stem off that style they had then other than flea really and even with him its changed a lot and also god knows what Anthony sounds like these days when he does his 80s rappiing voice... no bueno. i am just thinking of him singing tru men dont kill coyotes and its just... funny
How can anyone not love John, what a guy 👏
One of the greatest Mr Fruschante
One of the Greatest guitar players*
@@wyattcole5452and in general
@@suds9365 not rlly, I mean even saying one of the best living guitar player is questionable, but he certainly isn’t the best band mate
@@wyattcole5452you’re such a douche canoe
Frusciante , it's italian
How come him and flea have exactly the same voice
And just when he talks about how bass is the most important instrument... 🤔
its called drugs
Crazy man.. i was only listening and thought it was flea talking. They sound so similar
@@denisblack9897 Dddruuuuuugssss maaaaan
John had a voice box transplant about 6 years ago
I love you, John Frusciante!

I am proud of John and how he's living life❤
Drums and Bass always lead the way and keep the pace and the key
How this man is beautiful
He is sooo cute and attractive it is unfair we don't talk about it enoughy😊😊😊❤
Yea, in 1989. Anthony kept his cute looks until the late 90s
@wyattcole5452 you just aren't into older men then smh
@@cosmicangellgrrll no, there are plenty who have aged well. I just don’t think he has personally
@wyattcole5452 well I'd rather the dude look a little older than dead, he loved herion its a shock he isn't dead you know

Hes underated as a guitarist and a musician in general. Also seems like a super cool dude.
He’s chill asf. Also has a unique playing style
@@ballsballsballs3617well he had to kinda relearn how to play for Californication, his heroin abuse effected his creativity and guitar playing In incomprehensible ways
Wait, underated is different of mainstreamed.
In the chilli community he's overrated. The world doesn't find him to be some jimi which he isn't and that's fine. Great band great music so what more could one ask for.
I try to be like John and not be so selfish but its really difficult sometimes but he really inspires me to be more conscious and considerate
He’s a perfect example of “less is more”
Really depends on what the bass player is playing.
I ❤JF! I can’t get enough of his music; he’s an underrated genius! In my mind he ranks with past masters like Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven. And his voice is SO beautifully angelic.

JF is so humble.
Complete genius
A real special human being
They were brilliant in Scotland the other night🤙 john and flea's solo was insane
This group are all individually brilliant and together are at a euphoric level
So true. Especially for RHCP
This is my absolute favorite band ❤
I love John frusciante so much, so happy to see him back in the band. Josh did a lot of great stuff for the band, no hate on him whatsoever, but I’m glad John got to come back. All these guys are awesome
Humble approach to a group activity.
Frusciante is MY FAV EVER!!!!PERIOD! Hope I get an opportunity to meet this amazing musician!! ❤
He is incredible! He sounds great on the albums but he takes it to another level in concert! Phenomenal.
@@kdarko88he does !! He holds himself to a higher standard - his genius may never be fully realized - but he’s a kind sensitive person too - I think that endears him even more !!
Bro the similarity of John's and flea's voice is insane 😮❤
If every band walked into the room with that understanding, can you imagine how much better the music world would be?!?
And that’s why they’re so good
Awesome to see them all together and healthy. I remember when John of on smack. Under the bridge sometimes is where we drew some blood.❤ Peppers forever
John is my power animal, love that man and that whole entire band #LongLiveRHCP
John's art saved my life. thanks amigo
What a soul. He looks great!
I love John
With Flea it’s easy to say the bass is the main event!
John is an absolute legend. His riffs speak to my soul. His art is endless and eternal.
My Legends 💗💗💗

That is a great mindset to form a funkadelick rock group. Everything blends oh so smooth 🤘
Frusciante is a class act & hunk of an Italian stallion 💕
Man is a god damned genius 😊
Look at Anthony's face
Missed John so much. Love these guys
Just love those guys! So many hours of great music!
Great to see frusciante playing music on the regular again, really is a true artiste in every meaning of the word
I knew John Fucshante would come back & I'm so glad he did
Love these guys
That's why he's so great...he let's the rhythm section shine.
Bass and Drums can run a song most of the time. Guitar add the colour and flavour. And I’m a guitarist.
A rock band is a vehicle. Voice is body. Guitar is wheels. Drums are engine. Bass is shift gear.
John is one of my favorite artists ever...if you haven't heard hos solo work...don't walk...run to get it
Empyrean is a beautiful album
I see the bass too. Also drums. I grew up playing drums so I hear the drums first in everything I do. I play a little guitar. But ai hear the drums follow bass and vice versa. Everyone is different it just follows your ear.
I really love this man so much 😍🫶🔥
In this band everyone shines, often at the same time. It allows you to experience their songs differently depending on your mood.
Their chemistry is second to none. Chad you beast you.
John looks like a boxer from the 1930’s era. Jeezus
Dudes a guitar genius
Well, if you have Flea as your bass player, definitely consider that! 😎👌🏼
How humble people talk
thats why their great!
Flea is one of my all time favorite musicians. Not only is he really good at his craft he’s got one of the coolest personalities. Just seems like a really good dude
What a stunning bass / guitar combination. What a blessed meeting of humans.
I don't know about you but Snow intro suddenly played inside my head😅
You can really tell in John's playing. He's really the embellishment of the band and really glues all of the sonics of the band together after Flea's bass lol!
I didn't realize that till I started playing bass. Seriously underrated
Glad John came home.
John knows his role. Why do you think they improvise so well when they jam.
John's the man!! Go peppers go
He is completely correct in his assessment
Shows John's class
That’s how he sees it, not that u should see it like that
But I'm telling you should .. ;)
Just mu opinion.. Hahahahaha
Why’s that, because you believe your opinion is more important than the guy actually saying it??
@@WotRuTalkanabit ???
I wasn't looking at my phone, I thought this was a norm macdonald short 😂
Why, it's not? :-)
John Frusciante is a National Treasure!
Drums and bass are root for all the songs i have ever heard that uses guitar, bass and drums. As an ex guitar player myself, i used a guitar to decorate songs and listened to bass and drums to enjoy them
John Frusciante..🔥🔥🔥
Respect.
John looks clean.
right on, ill put that on da notes 📝
He's a great player knowing his place in the sound.
He’s not joking and it why they sound the way they do.
Damn they all look great
The music style and song should define which instrument shines and when. It’s music, when it comes to this kind of stuff, there are no rules. I can see why he says that with a band like RHCP though.
Te amo John!
“I see each song as being a bass solo” 😂
Reason why John is a genius!
For the ones truly listening.... this makes so much sense!
They’re all so sweet. But shit if Flea’s in your band then yeah, the bass is the lead instrument 🤣
The sign of a great band is a great bassist. The bass really sets tone of song and is the peanut butter to the drums and guitars wonder bread. When I can’t figure out what I love so much about a band that would otherwise be described as simple or unsophisticated, it’s always the bass lines. Why British bands are so great
Would not hear John’s speaking voice and know that he sings like an angel
Genius
Love Frusciante my video of him in London is on 217k views that's how much we love him ❤
Anthony's face says: he's not dude, but I'll let that pass cuz I lov u
RHCP kind of reminds me of Nazareth, as far as their dynamics.
that was another band where the bass player was basically the band leader.
⚡️🎸⚡️
Why does John talk like flea on this interview 😂
As they age both of their voice has sort of merged into one 😂
Substance after effect
@@johnwinger2240what substance sir ?
DRUGS 🤦♀️
@@olgasp6435 John has never done drugs
I like how the title of the video clip proves the person who posted it didn't listen to the words the people were saying. Good job.
LOL
A cara do Anthony
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
They are so much in sync that their voice became 1 😂
I’ve said for over a decade that flea thrives in an environment where the guitarist is the rhythm part and creates a sonic background for flea to do what he needs
Bass first bands come up with some of the best music. Look at the police, the front man Sting was a Bassist and so a lot of the music was written around his bass lead resulting is some beautiful funky beachy unique music
👌 Even if you listen to early INXS, or Japan, or early U2.
This makes perfect sense to me as RHCP fan... I hope we get 30 more years of the.them!
