me too! i look up to them! theyre just pioneers at what they doo! i havent been playing that long but i think i've progressed quite a bit thanks to them! not that it matters to you just sayin XDDD
I've been playing bass for about two years... less than a year after I started playing I joined a jazz/funk band and now we bless people in our local area with tight assed funk tunes with the occasional jazz piece.. I owe it all to this very video.. for inspiring me to teach myself bass and to spend 3.5 thousand dollars on a musicman stingray 5 :D..
On Friday two new episodes of The Chad and Paul Show will be posted! The first one is Wall Mart (not Wal Mart) and the second is Green Knee Sickness (very similar to Dr. Jones- Our apology episode). These episodes are really good. Please tell friends, family, acquaintances, neighbors, mean strangers, nice strangers, old strangers, young strangers, pets, (etc.) to watch these really good episodes!
I could literally watch hours of just these two goofing off; they've been the essence of the Chili Peppers since Mother's Milk. It's hard to pinpoint which of the members are most important in the group, because they all contribute something different; but really, Chad and Flea can not be replaced. As has already been mentioned, numerous times, they're both incredibly talented in their respective 'professions' if you will and RHCP without either of them would be... lackluster
dude, flea is the best bassist of all time, chad is the best drummer of all time. So leaves RHCP the best band of all time. the beatles cant top this.
@SaintUdnitz you failed your homework assignment, rock has its roots in the rockabilly movement which goes all the way back to the 1920's, in fact if you look up who exactly started rock and roll, you won't find either of those two listed, not until you get to the people who really POPULARIZED rock that is
@SaintUdnitz the fact you're using wikipedia furthers my statement of you failing your homework assignment, the absolute worst site for any research purposes other than giving some vague names and ideas, frequent the science pages and with some knowledge you'll laugh at all the miscalculations and faulty information, without citations the information is not valid
@BnHwrd Takes more than 2 members of a band to make the band the best :P
Besides, there's more to music than just playing it. What you play isn't even as important as how you play it. RHCP's good at what they do, and they're the best at what they do, because nobody else does RHCP. Same way Louis Johnson is the best at what he does, because nobody else does Louis Johnson.
By the way, if you like Flea you'd probably like Louis Johnson. Look him up.
You cant always express your favouring towards anyone by stateing hes the best of all time...
1. flea is maybe(!) not as good as wooten. still i prefer flea.
2. chad is very underrated, very clear, veeery accurate, a real machine. but theres like 90 other famous drummers that might beat him. still chad is one of my favourites.
3. beatlea achieved more, musically. still i prefer rhcp
you see my point? I also got you, but people will pick on statements like yours for a reason.
Definately bass is the greatest thing I have learned from awsome funk rythms with some slap to that Spanish bass strumming techniche Les Claypool does an sweet harmonics like Jaco Pastorius. Bass is like drums but with notes and is soooooo much fun!!!!!!
@Hardtack444 Dude he was voted best live drummer in drum world magazine or some shit...thats not really being underrated. Gotta love his funky shit tho on BSSM
Great video, and sorry to be so random, but does anyone know the tuning of a 5-string bass? I figured it would be the same as your average bass, E, A, D, &G with an additional E like a guitar with one string removed, but when I went to try one out at the local Music & Arts, it appeared otherwise. Now was that standard tuning or just confused people screwing with it?
Wow I downloaded that into my ipod. That is fucking wild, and I will always be amazed every single time I hear them, and the red hot chili peppers in general. <3
Thank you. I thought it looked like one, but I didn't want to be all "OOO NICE MUSIC MAN", and have some asshole be like "THATS NOT A MUSIC MAN" understand what i mean lol.
a friend of rhcp named denise zoom called up the band when they were holding auditions for drummer after dh peligro got kicked out and she said she knew this guy who ate drums for breakfast. guess who she was talking about lol
dude.. you manged to tab all of this out?? damn man you must have a good ear.. could you send me the first part?? I can play naked in the rain and the greeting song already.. if you could do that man.. be much appreciated. :D can you do it on this email or do you need another one??
Haha i wish. lol i did attempt to with a slowed down recording of this but it was a thread started on a bass players forum and one of the guys worked it out to near perfection of accuracy :D Send me your email adresses and i'll attatch the small notepad file of t he tab for the intro. Here's a sneak peak of it ^_^
Hey, Does any one here know what kind of amp Flea uses?. not to sure.. I know john uses a marshall but I'm not sure about flea? greatly appreciated if someone could tell me..
The amazing thing about Chad is that it sounds extremely complex (and it is) but it's almost instinct. When I began drums I was doing basic rock beats and it was through listening to tons of RHCP that I subconsciously picked up on Chad's style, although I'm not as good as him, but people have told me that I play an "easier" version of his funky style. If you've noticed in Live RHCP shows, he changes up the drums to almost every song and it doesn't sound wrong.
