He's said in the past that for his guitar solos, he's not one of those players who just completely takes the stage and plays whatever the fuck he wants, he actually works w/ what flea and chad are playing. He's actually lets what they're playing to shine as well, seeing as they're all world class musicians.
Frusciante is the best modern guitar player, and my favorite to add. He plays with so much emotion you can see it clearly!! Heres my Dani California improv . Go to Valandis12
@jackasslukas22 i dont know, but actually i think that this jam its a cover of Hey baby (New Rising Sun) Of Hendrix, of course, both solos are improvised.
@dudejoe64 theyve been practicing together for years, but they're at a point where they know eachothers style so well that they can create jams on the spot.
@FrizAtHome Ya i know like at practice....Im talking about live audience... They dont want ta fuck up in front of thousands of people so they go over the gist.
@TpSLAPADAbass when your playing in a chord and you know your way around scales well enough you can play it out in your head before playing it. Its just coincidental that John and Flea have the same rythm thought out. Take If You Have to Ask for an example, John only plays one chord while Flea rocks out, then they switch roles.
@BenDover955 you are. Thinking that the mighty guitar god John Anthony "Motherfucking" Frusciante plays on something less than a real vintage guitar is just pure blasphemy!
The peppers will definetly make a huge loss. Josh Klinghoffer is very talented and the best possible replacement for john but i doubt that he can jam anywhere close to john's level.
In the album version, he's using a wah-wah pedal with a phaser. Here, ONLY during the outro part of the solo he uses a wah-wah pedal. The rest of the time, he's staggering different distortion pedals because when he stops his solo and lets flea do his solo he still has a bit of distortion but you can see him click off one of his pedals.
It's not about "LETTING him play more"... Rick Rubin is known for being VERY hands off and letting the musicians do their thing.
Don't get me wrong, I wish he did more soloing on the albums, but he's not the type to sit down and write a solo; he's improvisational.
Also, john frusciante writes almost all of the riffs. if was is any musician in any band that determined how the band sounds on their subsequent albums sound it would have been john frusciante.
Flea and John are the best !!!!! ;)
