Hillel Slovak is only one person, and he's the one who taught Fle how to play bass. So let's not compare greatness. It's just greatness on diferent levels.
Yeah I think he sounds like him too. Since Cat Stevens is not aloud back in America because of our retarded government at least we have John to give us a little reminder of some sounds of Cat Stevens.
John is a GREAT story. Overcoming his heroine addiction and building a new life around musical harmony. He is an awesome role model for all people. And one of the greatest fucking musicians to ever walk the planet!!
So you are saying that everyone from the past and present Chili Peppers has no talent?
Jack Irons, Hillel, Dave Navarro, Arik Marshall, Cliff Martinez, Chad Smith, Flea, Anthony, D.H. Peligro . . . they all sucked?
John is great don't get me wrong, I fucking love his solo stuff. Some of the best music I've heard in entire life, but it's not like he's the only talented musician in the world.
Dude, if you think john frusciante is bad at guitar that doesn't mean you don't know anything about guitar, it just means that you haven't listened to him enough to know. I can agree on the fact that clapton, hendrix, John mayer,and the all 3 of the Kings are gods, but I can't say that those other guys aren't good because I haven't listened to them enough to know. But I won't even try arguing with jazzguitar1221, because I mean since he's 19 and goes to Berkely he OBVIOUSLY knows more than me!
when you put clapton, hendrix, and john mayer in the same sentence...you've already lost all my cred. what the fuck did john mayer do in his life so far to get hendrix or clapton status??? fuck of you cunt.
yea guy, ur an asshole...theres nothing separating john from his guitar during his solos..u can actually feel him while listening to them..hendrix and clapton i like too...i hate mayers music to tell u the truth..but jf is definately the best...he's a genious and u should start listening more..
Frusciante absolutely fuckin rocks hes definately one of the best guitarists/musicians of this generation. But on the guitarist subject i think Derek Trucks wins the battle but musicianship goes to Frusciante
are kidding me, frusciante sucks at guitar, clapton is the greatist musician of all time, just watch the rolling stone video with trucks and mayer he is terrible, you just have not been exposed to any great guitar players if you think this guy is good
i like Clapton, Hendrix too but look at the guitar parts of Frusciante's song (RHCP+himself)! if you play guitar you'll understand that frusciante is not a beginner in guitar
that is why when i used to listen to frusciante i was not as good as i am today cause now i just listen to good players like clapton, hendrix, b.b. king, larry carlton, john scofield, john mayer and the list goes on. Frusciante can not even compare to those players. Your obvously a guitar player that does not know much, right I dont know much ur the dumbass
f- off dude! seriously if you hate the guys playing step off! He is a guitar genius! so there...my opinion! KiethUrban is good too, not the point, but still. Yeah my point is STEP OFF! we like him, so go comment on all of those peoples videos and say good stuff! So just leave us John Frusciante Fans Alone.
Thats one video john wasn't good in big whoop. Almost every other video John's in, he's great. Clapton is good but doesn't mean he's the best musician in the world. And it looks like you haven't been exposed to many great guitarists because you think Frusciante sucks. I really think you need medical help QUICKLY if you don't think he's good
i don't know but somehow his voice sounds like cat stevens in this video... he is still great... a shining example and he becomes better and better the older he gets. you got to love his music.
