  • the chords at the end and then those littles riffs give me goosebumps

  • Just forgot what i was gonna watch next, john always does that to me -.-

  • that man can play..

  • @timvc50  your mother plays mindless penatonic wank ya cocksucker ya

  • Flea is like: "look how few notes I can play to entertain people!" and then John is like: "do I have to make up for all the notes you don't want to play? No problem!"

  • @linguafranca86 lol i have to asked were you stoned when you made this comment? coz im stoned right now and it makes sense

  • I wasn't, but you clearly were! ;-) (okay! I admit, i've been stoned before) Actually whenI watched the Off the map" DVD stoned about 9 years ago. That's when RHCP realy hit me with their geiniusness and I started listening to all their stuff all the time.

  • @linguafranca86 what I'd do to have a joint with frusciante!

  • you rekon thats an MXR boost at 0:19

  • Two Words - Fucking Amazing

  • absolutely haunting.

  • most underated guitarist ever

  • i fucking can't believe that i missed this. i live literally 5 minutes from the venue. fuck me silly

  • @j30345 please come back to atlanta

  • God it sucks that john's no longer in the band.

  • I love how the title completely ignores Chad. He's amazing too you know!

  • @AntiOwnage true, but in this case it's clearly frusciante who makes the vast majority of the emotion

  • @brandon672008 Huh? What about Flea? This would be NOTHING. without Flea. Example: Play a chord, and have the bass play the root. Sounds like a chord. Now change the bass note. Say, to a min6. The whole IDEA of the chord changes. This is used in Anne (Frusciante) or Soul to Squeeze (RHCP).

    Without Chad, it would still sound nice, but you have to give him props for being quite an impressive drummer. The drums set the mood and drive the song. without him it would seem quite endless.

  • @AntiOwnage oh yeah of course. the other instruments are vital, but im just saying that the guitar in this case is shining out the most. at least for me.

  • @AntiOwnage Ah chad, I discovered that too back when I had a sweet sterero (before these shitty 50 watt stereos that dominate the stores these days). I was messingi around with my equilizer and BAM! :o my jaw dropped, the drums sounded so damn perfect, he compliments the RHCP so well. especially live (I was tinkering trying to find good setting for Live at Slane Castle DVD I had got for xmas). I do no believe any 1 RHCP is the sole star, they all shine bright.

  • Orgasmic. :)

  • FUCKING AMAZING I MUST SAY!!!!!

  • 2:10 sez it all!!!!

  • hendrix style

  • youtube needs a repeat button so i don't have to keep clicking replay everytime this finishes haha

  • the best/most emotional jam of all time and they dont even have a proper recorded version of this. but still, thank you to the person that recorded this! words can't define it.

  • frusciante .best musician

  • This has to be the best fuckin solo out there i mean ive watched a bunch of solos for john on youtube and this the best out of all of them i mean it just perfect

  • Tremolo bar. Whammy bar. Bridge bar.

  • this solo is like crack, i can't get enough of it! 1 of the best solos of all time right here.

  • nobody can touch this

  • now try to replace this guy...

    this might be the best playing i´ve ever seen

  • I absolutly agree he is irreplaceable!!!

    Chili Peppers without Frusciante aren't the Chili Peppers!

  • exactly. no one can possible replace him. josh klinghoffer wont be able to write guitar parts anywhere near as good as him let alone play like this.

  • Melodic, clean, and amazing.

  • Comment removed

  • o_O

    amazing john !

  • Awesome. Huh, usually after John, Flea goes crazy too.

  • does anybody know what effect that is, that gives him that tone????? it sounds like a mix of phaser and a lil bit of wah...i duno

  • Just wah & bar.

  • @zeitgeistmachine what do u mean bar? what does that mean?

  • holy shit i think i pissed myself man john fruciante is fuckin crazy

  • Oh baby!!!

    he's hendrix reborn

  • ive probably seen this vid a million times over and still get full on shivers!

  • it's so fucking unreal

  • That's sick

  • Now THAT was some amazing playing

  • Oh hell yes, was at this show.goosebumps!!probably the best show ive ever seen and ive seen quite a few.

  • how did you leran this??

    is there a tab??

    because i want to increase my technique...

    and this is very helpful, i think^^

  • go to jftabdotcom

    Theres a tab for it somewhere in the last 4 pages under the Tabs section.

    It's not completed though, I just learned the rest through ear and knowledge and trial and error.

  • cant find it, can u post direct link?

  • If you want to increase your technique try learning by ear. THIS is a bit much to tackle all at once but mess around with it and you should at least pick up some new licks.

  • Going to have to call bullshit on this one. Throw up a vid of you playin this on youtube and let's see it.

  • shut up you fanny

  • this is so freakin awesome....i like how he let the guitar scream...been dancin in my room^^

  • this is such an addicting video

    epic in massive amounts

  • i love this solo. Jimi would be proud od John

  • goddamn!!! i just cant wrap my mind around how theyre so fucking amazing

  • so i listend to this like 20 million times and i cant get bored of it ... like God damn it speaks for its self.... sound like it would be the solo for dont forget me but i could be wrong... also sounds like the crazy solo they have in an action movie during the sex scene lol........ frusciante is God

  • It's an end jam.

  • without a doubt, this has to be one of the greatest things i have ever seen in my life.

  • and the ass clown award of the year goes to...

  • that was in response to timvc50 by the way

  • fleaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • I think that jam got me pregnant

  • Woa...I just orgasmed almost as much as John did

  • Wow, serieusly. Not many things that can make me cry, but I did shed a tear there :'O

  • That sound John makes at 1:07 is undescribably good.

  • oh...oh boy. fuck. does he ever. the whole thing is just like....oooooh my god. i especially like the sound when he turns on the wah (i think...or maybe something else) at 20 seconds or so..

  • This touches my emotions so much. John is so much better than other guitarist because plays so emotionally as well as skillfully.

  • lol, ok. Go back to your Green Day kid.

    He is way out of your league, if that was an attempt at an insult, then i'm sorry, because i'm sure you've noticed that Dorian and Blues scale on top of the major AND minor pentatonic scale.

    And mindless? you sure know alot about what he is trying to play to know that he is mindlessly playing. Its called talent, he is able to express himself on the guitar as little guitarists ever can.

    Try listening to some real music. Thanks.

  • owned. nice.

    john rocks

  • thanks for saving me time and telling off this douchebag for me

  • LoL, nirvana was crappy at guitar, and John's amazing in it... There's no way to compare those =_=

  • no, he doesnt mean the band Nirvana. He means john's reached actual nirvana in playing the guitar.

  • lol

  • John reached the Nirwana in playing guitar...just amazing

  • i believe that chad is included in this jam too.

    and what an awesome jam it is....

  • damn, I almost went to this show cuz my dad lives in atlanta. I got to see them in Raleigh though. Nothing beats the chemistry between Flea and John

  • this is undescribably good

  • i love how johns licks have so much bite to them. like he grips every single note like its his last. this really does it for me. FRUSCIANTE FO EVA!!!

  • Love you John. You make my hard life easy...

  • Amen!

  • amazing FROOSH!!!!

  • if john isnt your favorite guitarist, you dont deserve to breathe. how can you watch this and say hes not.

  • Well some players like to look at technicality. Frusciante isn't exactly the most advanced in that. Don't get me wrong, I love his leads, his solos, his melodies, everything about his playing, but it is very understandable if he's not someone's favorite guitar player. For example, I know a lot of technical players who think his improvised leads are bad, but think his melodies and songwriting is wonderful. In my opinion, this is very understandable.

  • Frusciante's style is more sloppy like Hendrix and Page... but you shouldn't confuse that with technicality. I for a fact know he does play along with metal guitarists like Rhoads and EVH and plays classical music perfect, but he doesn't care to be a mindless shredder. He says it is the space in between the notes that dictate the sound.

  • Good call man, I wish there were more reasonable people like you in existence.

  • 0.56 - 1.01 its ... i have no words to describe it..

  • goosebumps

  • JF FTW!!!, i cant stop listing to this :P

  • Didn't mean to bring that back up.

    it was a response from Way back on page 6.

    Sorry guys. Frusciante for president!

  • i just jizzed on my computer a little bit

  • man all he is doing is going up the major pentatonic and dorian modes, thats it.

    But my god, it's the greatest thing that has ever graced this planet next to water

    He's using some of the most basic scales in music and creating such...you can't even call it music- it's beyond that.

    I have yet to find out how he does that with just those scales- how he gets that distinct feel and sound

    he's amazing :)

  • It just sounds so awesome. I could listen to it for hours, yet the theory is so basic. Even technical guitar players like Malmsteem due similar things, as Yngwie has built most of his music off of the harmonic minor scale. But I would pick Fru over Malmsteem anyday.

  • Yeah Froosh is amazing

    Way "better" than Yngwie in my opinion.

    But it's so awesome how they can get that sound out of their guitar- using certain licks

    I sit all day and try and find a way to get those little bending type licks Froush and Hendrix uses that just sound so awesome

    and they way they make love to those scales

    fucking awesome

  • yes better than Yngwie!

  • don't forget blues scale, and minor pen. also.

    Those are his 4 scales. Mejor/Minor Penatonic, Blues, and Dorian.

  • It's all practically the same

    pentatonic is mostly used in blues, and dorian is the most similar to pentatonic than any other scale

    But yeah

  • yea, just a few notes extra here and there. I agree.

  • Yeah, this isdefinitely inspiring. I know all of those scales, but I can't use them like this yet. Pretty amazing.

  • I'd take this over water. That shit is so overrated.

  • someones tall :O

  • I pissed myself! O.O

  • Its not about notes, you nerd, its about the groove. You dont learn it , you feel it.

  • so true.

  • I don't get it. Johns playing sounds cool but he's playing so many notes through such heavy distortion/wah. That's like the oldest trick in the book. I started checking him out after I saw him in the RollingStone vid with Mayer and Trucks, but I haven't seen anything that really rocks my socks. All John's fans talk a big game on him, can you guys point me to a video of his that kicks ass. I'd love nothing more than to discover sounds/players which alter my musical thinking. Cheers!

  • depends what style you like dude.

    if you like non distorted blues than stick to mayer.

    john is a rock/funk guitarist, different than the other two.

    A slow solo, would be, search for RHCP - Hey (not hey oh, snow) toward the end of the song he has a mellow amazing solo that sounds like the guitar is talking.

    I'm guessing you don't like the flashy hendrix type of rock solo's so that is a mellow one to check out.

  • but if you don't like Flashy, distorted rock/funk solo's and leads, than Froosh prolly isn't for you bro.

    Not everyone likes him :)

    Stuff like this, i feel the emotion just pouring out of his playing, he gives it everything every time, and a little past the 1min mark, the guitar just screams.

  • His combination of licks, melody, and wah/distored sounds is just my absolute favorite type. He isn't a pop guitarist, or a heavy (metal guitarist) it is hard to classify his playing, but its awesome!

  • i dont see anything less than amazing about this solo. noone plays with this much passion and skill, the distortion and wah just make it that much more of the shit. how can that not rock your socks off man? my jaw was on the fucking floor after i saw this

  • its all difference in personal preference.

    Not everyone will like it, but this is better than any other guitarist alive i've seen except for maybe the clapton that was in cream.

  • haha type in lyon 6.6.06 in the youtube searcher. if that doenst fuckin blow your mind, theres a shitload wrong in there

  • check out any of the californication intro's or scar tissue's just to name a couple and you'll see some amazing guitaring without the distortion and if you don't like that then frusciante definately isn't for you because he is right up there in my list just second only to hendrix

  • If you don't like his soloing, I suggest you still listen to him for his melodies and songwriting abilities. Very little guitar players can touch him in this area.

  • No words can describe the UTTER MADNESS that just came out of my speakers. John almost makes up for ALL THE MUSICAL GARBAGE OUR GENERATION PRODUCES.

  • This era's Jimi Hendrix.

  • OMG, this is like WOW!!! I can't describe, just WOW Oh My FUCKING GOD!! WOW!!

  • <3 May9th!

  • speechless.

  • magical frusciante!!

  • the only word that pops up in my mind is: WOW

  • this is most likely the best ''John'' i've

    ever heard, the quick combinations and stuff. wow, this proves my love for johns art again.

    i love him ! :)

  • John combines amazing technical ability with emotion and he does it seamlessly.

  • i was fucking there, it was so amazing that I almost cried

  • Christ!!! When I hear this I believe that God exist...and aliens exist...Frusciante is heaven sent!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • john is the best!

  • Facking beautiful :o <3 John Frusciante is god

  • john is just the greatest

  • i agree with gunsnroses... i commented on bigminnes1214 earlier and i totally agree. slash doesnt suck dick, but frusciantes just a god

  • As you can tell by my names, I am a big Gung s N' Roses fans, particularly slash. That said, I think Fruscainte is the best guitarist out there today. Slash's stuff with original GnR is great but Frusciante has been good for a lot longer. Slash was only good for 5 years. His stuff with Velvet Revolver is not good. Whether it is new or old, Frusciante is amazing.

  • agreed....

  • ohhh my god i love it hes the best fucking guitar player to ever walk thjis planet ohh my god

  • this intense and it was filmed on my birthday wat more do u want??

  • i agree with tainted2180, dont come here to talk bout slash, or anythin else on ne chilies video, no point in attacking another video, if one likes slash so much then go to the godfather solo and comment on how good he is not on a frusicante vud. john is a god among men. beautiful...

  • thanx. i mean if i don;t like a group

    i don't go to thevid and talk about it.Just to start shit, people who do that waste their time and ruin the mood.

  • john is a fucking god on that wah. i prefer him over hendrix or clapton any day

  • John frusciante is one of the most passionate guitarists to ever live and he definately without a doubt my favorite

  • goosebumps

  • goosebumps

  • yea, i guess it is a matter of opinion, but still, i think almost anyone can say that its more about the feeling that comes across from the music than how fast someone can play. besides, john can play pretty damn fast WITH passion, just look at lyon 6.6.06

  • I have recently changed my mind after properly listening to SVR etc :D

  • well... thats opinion... you cant really say that passion is definitively better than technical skill... but whatever, my opinion.

  • yes you can

  • fine, completely blow me off... whatever

  • he can say whatever the fuck he wants. it is after all an opinion. John frusciante is the greatest guitarist to ever live.

  • haha... slash can suck my dick

    all he does is just play fast without feeling

    frusciante is better than him 10 fold

    no questions asked

  • have you even listened to gunsnroses? slash is slash! nuffsaid

  • <b>FUCK</b> slash slash slash! He doesn't feel his music.

    nuffsaid to that

    asswipe

  • you cant say that..

  • Slash is good but-

    1)He's not as good as frusciante as proven^

    2)The Terminator has more emotion than him.

    he looks the same when he's working taxes and when he's playin'. John Frusciante kicks ass. RHCP 4 life!

  • actually slash is better than you think...

  • no no no, that's the point.i don't fucking care.

    cuz it's not a <i>slash</i> vid..it's a <b>john frusciante</b> vid

  • well im just saying... i am a frusciante fan tho,

  • the guy below shut it slash had his time its frusciantes turn hu is an all round greater muscian so quiet, that is all :)

  • that guy is so over rated slash makes him look like a fucking lizard

  • A lizard? Of all the animals in the great vast animal kingdom, you went with the lizard, natures D student. Well I guess you've just showen us the capacity of your imagination.

  • why don't you stick slash's guitar playing up your ass and go listen to him instead of coming here.

  • hahaha

    a lizard!?

    you dumbass.

  • this solo gives me goosbumps! so awesome. gonna see them in 12 days here in holland. CANT W8! Love them all.

  • I was also at this show and all three florida shows. .. the ATL was my first live Peppers concert. ..they bring tears to the eyes .. with their talent. .

  • amazing can't wait until they come back to toronto, the greatest band out there and one of the greatest ever such amazing chemistry and john is up there with the guitar gods.

  • Fucking Awesome!
