I think Josh is the MOST suitable replacement for John in the Chili Peppers. He completely owned that solo. He bought it a drink and called it his bitch.
john has said that josh is a musical genius and that he thinks he still will make some of the best music this world has ever seen. i think john already has done that and that part of his music isn't widespread. I think john AND josh are amazing and fit perfect together, more from them please! ataxia project was just freaking unbelievable.
excatly what julia said. dude you know how many people look like that lol i love both of those guys frusciante and josh they make amazing shit together and apart. im glad he is stepping in for frusciante as guitar for rhcp
Josh Klinghoffer is a man of few words. He is a wonderful musician and I like his style. Obviously he enjoys sitting on the floor while playing guitar just as John Frusciante.
That's not cool to discredit Josh and just conclude that he's ripping off Frusciante. He's a talented musician. Secondly, he's friends with Frusciante, so it would only make sense that there would be similarities. How do you know that Klinghoffer hasn't in some way influence Frusciante? I'm sure he has. Lastly, imitation is a compliment. Don't hate on people for just wanting to play music.
parece q los red hot se van de pique este chikito como se llama ahhhhhh johs no le llega ni a los talones a MR JOHN FRUSCIANTE , escuche su unico disco y la unica cancion q tienes es tes hurt la cual no tienes nada de la fuera de los red hot chili peppers
Hey Anybody ever heard Josh sing? i'm curious to know how his voice sounds like, if anybody know's i would appreciate it if you would let me know. can he reach high notes like John?
@Jazzguitarist123 Yeah, he sings om some songs from Johns' CD A Sphere in the heart of silence, ant he sings on some of Ataxias songs, and does the Backing Vocals får John's song Omission.
he's got an alright voice, he kinda sounds like the dude from placebo, he sings on a song in that band he used to be in with john frusciante, I think they were called atriax or something like that.
josh klinghoffer will fit perfectly on the peppers i guess. He plays the same style john does and it won't be the same as well john is john but it won't be as big a diference as navarro. with that guy flea really had to step up. with this one i don't think so.
i know he is the new guitarist for the peppers, and dont know too much about him. i know he played with the peppers on SA tour, and has done some songs with john other than that, dont know anything :S
Josh plays just like Frusciante. Look back on RHCP history, where Frusciante was basically Hilel Slovak's prodigy. When Slovak died, Frusciante filled his shoes, after a couple of failed attempts. Klinghoffer was Frusciante's backup guitarist for the Stadium Arcadium tour. It's obvious that if Frusciante thought he was good enough to cover if Frusciante wasn't able to play, that he must fit in well with the Peppers and there is nothing to worry about.
like you said its pretty obvious Josh already has a good relationship and chemistry with the band, but i was just interested in what kind of music he usually played.
this shouldnt be like when JF first left and Navarro joined, imo Josh will do much better cause he has played with them before.
Whatever they do it's gonna be good, but i don't think the knew album will be very popular, because John has made alot of the sound they have and Flea has picked up some electronica influences from Thom Yorke. However i can tell you that RHCP does what it's into very well. The hardcore funk/punk for me was the best. I know people who think OHM was their best. Somepeople completely ignore eveything before Californication. None of it sucks, it's just what kind of music hits you.
im sure josh will do a great job with the peppers, its very similar to john so we're gonna to think that the guitar that sounds in the new RHCP's album is from john but really it is from josh :D
Damn... I guess if anyone was fit to replace john, it would be klinghoffer... Too bad though, I loved john in the chili's. Well, I guess we'll always have his solo work
yeah i know what you mean. john was certainly one of a kind. no one else could ever write something like "i could have lied". maybe it'll be really nice for a change though... i was never a big fan of stadium arcadium, save for a few amazing songs. either way, klinghoffer has huge shoes to fill.
well from what i've seen in articles and stuff yeah. he's been playing with them for about a month now, and i think only they would know if he is. i really hope so though.
John was a wannabe Hillel on Mother's Milk, for it also was the major's willing, and he couldn't/didn't want to smash up the band's style right away. He'd been there for a few months... Look at what he showed on BSSM, that's his very style, far away from Hillel's, in only 3 years. On the other hand, Josh has been here for a really long time and has worked with JF for years. He's still got the same style, that's his definitive style, and that's also John's, admit it. No comparison there.
Josh has pretty much been handpicked by John as his replacement. John brought Josh into the Peppers family for the Stadium Arcadium tour so in a way John was his mentor. Josh has HUGE shoes to fill but it's pretty unfair to bash the guy. Josh is friends with the band, toured with them, knows the songs so he is the best suited to replace John. Most of us have expected this for almost a year now. Sucks John has left again but if his heart is not into it you can't force him to be in the band.
Oh my god. I love this song. Wonderful perfection. Could you get more of the Bicycle Thief's or anymore with Josh K. On here? It would be great. -_- and tell me where I can get this for free because I've looked everywhere!
i read that book twice and now i want to go find where he talks about bob forest so could you spare me the time and tell me the page? i would be ever grateful.
