Red Hot Chili Peppers Bass Medley

[zaksillyman]

absolutely brilliant!

[Cheesenipp6]

That was great, but I believe you're playing Yertle the Turtle wrong... Then again, it's just the way I play it. For me, it's kind of got an "Around the World" Idea and feel to it.

[VaultMusic105]

That was amazing. Not only are you a great bassist but you made all ten songs sound like one. Great trasitions and amazing playing. If I didnt listen to those songs all the time, then I woudl have never even knew that you were playing ten different songs. But Im an obsessed RHCP fan, so I know all their songs by heart.

RHCP best band ever 1983-2009.

I cant wait til they make a new album.

[mesoocoool]

It's coming bro! It's coming! =)

[rcarte20]

They are actually supposed to be releasing an album around October. Its going to be amazing!

[VaultMusic105]

I know!!!!!!!! I cant wait til the new album comes out.

In Jungleman. How do you do that crazy little roll thing. Where it sounds all muted.

Awesome. I love all the slapping Flea uses on the first three albums.

Hey mate that was a really great job doing all those songs, each was recognisable! Interesting to see how you made almost all of them have non stop slap and pop, of all those songs I can only play Freaky Styley on bass, but Im still new. Nice job man keep up the good work!

[frostyrhcp1]

cheers man

[joserafael86]

helll yes love it!! I love that funk rock style on the bass

[hailtheheelz]

this was sick...soo good, wish i knew a bass player like you

[YourManChoolioB]

veeeeery nice!

[cjthebassist]

Are you plugged in? Or is your amp volume too low...

[frostyrhcp1]

well my amp is crap...very crap... and it didn't work too well in being picked up by the camera so yea i dunno

[cheesesandwich25]

that was sick !

[Jirloow]

Nice :D Check out my video

[nairbfry]

Hey I think you are a fantastic bass player. I just subscribed to your videos and favorited this video. Now here is a little constructive criticism. The video is a bit dark and could benefit from some light. You could try a colored light (red or blue usually look cool) or you could invest in a couple of 250 watt portable work lights ($10.00 each at the hardware store), easy to move around and not too hot. I love your bass playing though.

[GidanRazorblade]

very nice!can u play the coffee shop's outro? =)

[benrhcpfan]

Flea would be proud :P

[punkjazz88]

u playing an iceman dude?

[frostyrhcp1]

nah but theyre real weird looking....

you like jaco huh?

[muxy23]

fantastic little diddy! i like it.

[fleajr1412]

dude aeome m slaps n jungle man! 5*

[pigchiken]

could you post a tab of how you play True men Don't Kill Coyotes?

[88Euginho88]

AWESOME!!!

GOOD BASSMAN :P

Freakey Stiley RULEZ!^^

[easydawnkill]

You rule man.....

[goodmyself]

YOU ARE SO GOOD!!!

...I can t believe how good this sounds...

[frostyrhcp1]

thanks alot

[RHCPfleaMS]

Man your awesome!Do you have all RHCP's albums? (I do :D) Have you added some notes on the Freaky Styley bit, thought it was played a bit more simple actually..

[frostyrhcp1]

yea i got em all...and about 100 other unreleased songs- im fairly obsessed...and yea i just play three notes for the transition...i think- i dunno it just happened...

[frostyrhcp1]

oh unless ur talking about the mutes i do- i just do them to keep rhythm- better than an awkward silence which is hard to come back into...

[RHCPfleaMS]

ment the mutes, it was cool though.. Have you listened to some of my grooves? I'm only an amatuer and they're a bit sloppy, but some of em are pretty nice actually..(or I think:P)

[eMANtheRHCPfan]

dude you kick major ass!

[Bonnaroo10klmf]

amazing job man, i wish i could play those basslines like you

[ThaSoulGaard]

Good job dude.. You Rock. stay on playing bass.. :P

[liquidclock]

sweet job on all of those btw viva le red hot ;)

[liquidclock]

jesus how many notes are those at 0:48

[frostyrhcp1]

just 6 :P theyre triplets- a lot easier than it sounds just slap, pop (index on d), pop (middle on g). it might be hard if u only have one popping finger though...

[jacksonmakemefeel]

What's that song?

[frostyrhcp1]

jungle man- flea doesnt play that bit though... i dunno why i did it

[peterwentzsux]

awesome

[geefer123]

Hey buddy - what's that little song you play at the end...not the slapping..you play it kinda high up on the fretboard.

[frostyrhcp1]

thats pretty little ditty- great song on a great album- mothers milk

thanks for the comment

[geefer123]

Found out yesterday..just learned the little "butterfly" riff...I love it!

[lizhogg]

You have immense talent. GREAT, GREAT job! You really capture Flea's talent, and style very well, but don't completely mimick him

[DiaNukii]

hey i want your msn pleaseeee!!!

[megatallica1775]

fuck yeah!

[thekill27]

this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo wierd

[chocolalala]

nice done

super

i love it

[Maverickhornet1]

Hey buddy, Im 18 and picked up bass around December time. Just wondering how you learned slap and stuff like that. Did you get anything cause I am wondering if I should get any DVDs or what not???

[frostyrhcp1]

yo i dunno how i started i just practiced real hard on timing and stuff and making sure i was comfortable with my technique. i really like the dvd called 'flea' where he jams with chad heaps and river phoenix interviews him.. about AUD60.00 but worth it...

[Maverickhornet1]

Yeah hehe, I was going to get that too. I had a Band Practice with my buddies the other day and they said I am getting good at it. I basically just going for it. On that DVD does he do like lessons?

[frostyrhcp1]

he lays some groooooves and talks about how to practice and warm up and there are some really cool jams...he also talks about his musical background and influences and how he first started playing and stuff- its sweet

[nairbfry]

That video is on youtube also.

[Jossnor]

red hot chili peppers best band in world!!!

[VillageRocker90]

im 16 an im playin a half year. You have skills man... like that what you play =) keep on playin' ;)

[VillageRocker90]

hey thats good, im also playing bass and these are my fav chili songs =) who long do you play? and how old are you?

[frostyrhcp1]

yo im 18 1/2 and i been playing for about a year- how bout you?

[rhcp102406]

dam your good

[frostyrhcp1]

thanks- check out my vids with jonny! we do pretty little ditty and stone cold bush

[TimmyTheSailor]

Really nice man, you transitioned smoothly. Big kudos on the choices too, some of my favourite Chili bass lines.

I WOULD ALSO BE YOUR FREIND! YAY!

[frostyrhcp1]

Thanks for that man- just spreading the chili lovin- not enough funk in the world today...

[PUNX246]

NICE. bass is the best part of rhcp. this is awesome

[jonnodurham]

is he good?

[jonnodurham]

dude thats cool as - you need like a guitarist or something to make it better

[frostyrhcp1]

yea theres this guy i jam with named jonnodurhab

[sixtyeightspecial]

That's excellent fellah. Nice variation of songs too.

[UKNintendoManiac]

That was awesome. Did you play an extra bit in between Freaky Styley and Yertle the Turtle? It sounded like that to me.

[frostyrhcp1]

yea just an extra 3 notes lol- i just didnt want a long pause so i tried to make the transition a little smoother

thanks for the comment

[jonnodurham]

na - seriously its good - you have proved to be a real good bass player - especially live (except once lol) - the medly is real clever and must have taken a while - getting the right combos and showcasing the range of your chili knowledge was cool and well done. if i knew you id be your freind too

[delightingminds]

i like that your cool

[22w1st3d]

great stuff dude

[kneekneeknee]

DUDE MAN that's awesome!!

if i knew you, i'd want to be your friend!!

[kneekneeknee]

DUDE MAN that's awesome!!

if i knew you, i'd want to be your friend!!

[shalbus]

nice1, but yertle the turtle wasnt correct...but it was great though ;D

[frostyrhcp1]

yea man i know- i didnt play it properly cos i didnt wanna risk screwing it up halfway through lol- the only difference is i play the lower notes up an octave

thanks for the comment

[shalbus]

i like your transitions between the songs =)btw: what bass do you play there?

[frostyrhcp1]

its a j&d rm4- sounds real nice on a good amp- great low sounds- but my amps garb

[LeadGuitarMax]

nice work choosing those songs in that order, I really like it!
