Heavy! George Clinton is great!

[gonzo1445]

[TheRasraffaelli]

@RHCPnews is this the only video of the recording of a Freaky Styley tune?

[TheRasraffaelli]

God, how I love the 80's clothes

[OvernightDerailment]

im so glad they recorded this

[Ctmonsta]

I think the vocals sound cooler here just me

[fst20]

cocaine is one hellofa drug!

[Mefreudi]

@fst20 hehehe

[LIlowendNYC]

At 40 sec Cliff gets up to put his "snuffalufabagus" on. "my snuffalufabagus always leaves to get artistic direction".

[LIlowendNYC]

snuffalufabagus

[LIlowendNYC]

Cliff def gets up at :40 sec to put his "snuffalufabagus" on. "my snuffalufabagus always leaves to get outside direction"

[Frimid]

george clinton?

[J5MARLON]

@Frimid Yeah he was the producer of that album.

[Frimid]

@J5MARLON I was not aware..

[msh614]

Literally the coolest people on Earth in this era

[TheStratman707]

[KC97220]

They're having so much fun!

[dancergirl183]

0:21 Did anyone else see Anthony? O.o

[Alanaok1]

Made my day :)

[thibo62]

"perfect funk is Jazz!" Amazing words...

[gOnStrat]

keanu reeves on drums!



[steventherockgod]

WHERE can I download this? :o

[jared33647]

anyone have any pics of fleas bass in this video?

[biggdutty]

OHHH yesss

[acdc192837465]

The funkiest Chili's jam yet. Damn that's niccccce.

[krzym1]

They should release everything they recorded during Freaky Styley and UMPP, would be so sick. WHERE WAS INTERNET BACK THEN !?

[lucasfunkt]

I think I've just found my new favourite video on youtube. Funking awesome.

Are there any more videos like this?

[tunney101]

FUNK

[ElvisTrivelin]

Caramba! 25 anos se passaram! e eu fico imaginando como deve ser para eles as lembranças das gravações do álbum... George Clinton tem 70 anos e, dos caras, o mais velho é o Anthony - com 49. A tecnologia melhorou os instrumentos, mas não melhorou a música.

[schecterfanboy]

Anthony's cock @ 0:20

[22018]

Seeing Cliff is soo cool!

[lllflea98lll]

lol flea's scream @ 4:30

[bmillerdrums]

They could of just jammed the fuck out of the end of that tune. I like the fadeout on the album, but that was just asking to go on for another couple of minutes

[dontmesafrusciante]

wowthought id seen everything on the chili,,guess not , great stuff,,Clinton was a huge cock

[EddieHazel74]

Best line-up they had

[dontmesafrusciante]

@EddieHazel74 exept for drums

[EddieHazel74]

@dontmesafrusciante Hmmm i don't know. I actually really liked cliff's style. Then again, The blood sugar sex magik line-up is my other favorite. Freaky Styley and BSSM are just explosive albums to listen to, imo.

[nigelb1000000]

this is ... SO SIC!

[Sprtschk]

funny how they're all adjusting their dicks before the take.

[Doubleaabatterycru]

What bass is Flea using?

[NoChrReq]

@Doubleaabatterycru to me it seemed like either a musician stingray or a mm cutlass with stickers all around

[NoChrReq]

@NoChrReq damn auto-completion; musicman* i was trying to say

[segundoplano2]

@Doubleaabatterycru I think it's a custom classic Music Man Stingray... the bass is so coloured...it's hard to see if it is a classic model or another...but it's a Music Man! \o

[dontmesafrusciante]

@segundoplano2 yes its a music man

[hknuklez]

UHHHHHHHHHH that's mother funkin GEORGE CLINTON on backin vocals.

[Smxx777]

I would have died from overdose of happiness if I could have a chance to watch this vid 6-7 years ago. Best RHCP era, best songs. Totally incredible!

[brandonbak]

thumbs up if you saw this before twitter

[AuT0maTe1]

@brandonbak fuck twitter talk to humans

[CoheedAtThe930]

i used to think blood sugar sex was the best era...holy shit freaky styley is soooo underrated....found this CD at the thrift store forr 3 bucks  lol...that was a good day.

[Frimid]

@CoheedAtThe930 there wasn't much art to that album though, that's why I feel it was over looked.

[ThePencilCracker]

@CoheedAtThe930 The older cd's are REALLY Cheap... I bought Californication for $5 :P

[santanaincubus]

@CoheedAtThe930 80s up to the Californiction era was the best RHCP era to me. Plus I saw a book about Naive American Ghost Dancing at a bookstore yesterday how ironic lol.

[joosdude4]

@CoheedAtThe930 i would of bought it

[wldsthrnboy]

Hey man any body that like's the older, rawer, more rockin RHCP like this song Much more than the stuff after Mothers Milk. If you haven't already, you need to check out some Clutch. They aren't really the same type of music as RHCP. But they are much more of a hard rock band. But they follow the same type of Funky Rythm Jam driven formula to their music. They totally kick ass.

[mrsexilexii]

@wldsthrnboy Thx man! just searched some Clutch and it sounded real awesome thx!!:)

[wldsthrnboy]

They need their Snuffaluffagus's out! Snuffaluffagus always gives good direction!

[R4ndomL4ugh]

i watched this video every night for a month and a half during the summer before i went to sleep. i sound like I'm exaggerating but I'm not. this video makes me so happy

[JudeG6695]

I got really excited cuz i though Hillel was wearing a Kippah! that would have made this all the more awesome!

[timoteo1969]

George Clinton funks out even when he ain't playing!

"Don't do it that way.... ... This ain't jazz. This is funky"

[jmfm0911]

@timoteo1969 Perfect Funk is jazz

[blblg]

posted on my birthday... what a gift!!

[bslz65]

i cant tell if this is like a green screen or like an actual studio. fuck im just way too high i think hahaa

[redhotero]

Just listen the funky mother f*cker

[kaca2903]

It's Hilel playing the guitar, but, who's on drums? Jack Irons?

[aasaad94]

@kaca2903 Cliff Martinez. He was on the first two albums.

[teenager17]

Great video, I can see why RHCP had fun recording this album with George Clinton. He's an amazing producer and the growth from their first album is really apparent

[bigrednz69]

Boys need to see how god damn funky they used to be!

[BlueNeon81]

Did Hillel Slovak speaking slovak? :)

[Exilemainstreet]

Sounds like Flea is slightly out of tune at the end.

[nuttywoody]

@Exilemainstreet the song just transposes up a step. It creates a climactic feel as the song comes to a close and kind of hangs you out there.

[Coldacre]

god bless Hillel and his immaculate playing. there was NO-ONE in 1985 playing guitar like this. what a genius and what a GREAT VIDEO!

[2chrissi2]

0:22 what is anthony doing?

[wldsthrnboy]

@2chrissi2

Being high as fuck! lol

[DJPatamushta]

This is strange - I don't see any cable connected to Flea's bass.

[scottvska]

Flea is so dumb.

[stillhuman108]

I love George's hand dance @ 2:14... This video is epic, two distinct generations of FUNK! Funk it.

[Tubbymcgee]

What a funky funky mother funker Hillel was.

[cursedswordsman]

Is Flea wearing skinnies?

[TheSicDominator]

nice shirts guys

[mofofunky]

THANKS FLEA !!!

[lucasppramone]

Where can I Find this!?

[THEGUITARSHAMMAN]

love how hillel is ignored

[TwistedSpeech]

The Peppers need to release that entire session on DVD. I would love to see how all of Freaky Styley was put together. It's by far my favorite Chili Peppers album. : )

[xojuliaxo315]

FLEAAAAAAA<3

[davism5]

George Clinton was kind of an ass! Too bad no one stood up to him.

[kurly021]

@davism5 he was more of a mentor to them so they wouldn't of wanted to



[zmoney682]

I love how George produces.

[meecrob99]

very swanky... I think i would loose my shit if they dropped this track on their upcoming tour

[patXross]

@meecrob99 Guess what, they did haha. They teased it in Austria

[HideFromFacebook]

That mic position would explain why the vocals were so quiet on Freaky Styley xD

[wowprogamer1]

FLEA <3

[Lucasnhuz]

Thumps up if you have already seen this video and got happy to see it again because of FLEA!

[dontmesafrusciante]

@Lucasnhuz HILLEL Slovak

[Lucasnhuz]

@dontmesafrusciante what? Flea posted that video in his twitter! Not Hillel!

[dontmesafrusciante]

@Lucasnhuz well i would hope hillel had nothing to do with it,,being hes dead and all , lol

[RHCPRyo1089]

アンソニーださっ

[Historyfan1776]

You gotta love the leather jacket with the cups. Classic. "Look at all these colors, you aint gonna use none of em?"

"Love all your brothers and love all your sisters, love all the Misses and love all the Mr.'s, don't be shy when sharing your kisses, the brother's cup isn't and we aint sissies!"

[alenami22]

GOLD, BEST OF THE BEST.

[DefyingNoodles]

Hillel looks so fuckin snazzy. RIP man.

[PepeTheFrog]

Who the fuck disliked this?

[CoheedAtThe930]

haha Flea goes "What is funk, George?"

[JAG82]

I was 3 years old when this was recorded.

[leloup6989]

@JAG82 i wasnt even conceived!

[verticalgrand23]

"Perfect funk is jazz. And we ain't playin' jazz."

[verticalgrand23]

This is like the dopest video of all time

[zheopharyx]

These guys play with their cocks more than a 13 year old. lol.

[Tal1351n]

Haha antony casually slips his cock out for abit of readjustment at 0.20

[wldsthrnboy]

@Tal1351n

They gotta have their Snuffaluffagus's out man. Didn't you her Flea? LOL

[1uk3isd3ad]

0 dislikes...thats what i thought HAHA!

[GHGod26]

It's easy to see the Hillel Slovak was a huge influence on Frusciante's style. They are/were both great players!

[mrcarltonjames]

Wow! Forgot how good this album is. I love the one note breakdown in the middle. Bom...Bom......Bom...Bom! Pure funk!!

[Joao3s]

0:22. wtf !? look at antonhy´s pants, it´s a belt, right ?

[darkz369]

@Joao3s no, he whips his dick out



[scoobyjenkins]

Incredible.

[joaobfl]

[ItsBusinessTime94]

[cursedswordsman]

[deppwaswho]

[MonsterxSGx209]

[Magichash420]

so much coke and heroin makes awesome fuck (this song)

[MonsterxSGx209]

@Magichash420 Hillel

[k0stil]

is that cliff,right?

[polk122]

At 0:20 look at the guy in the black shorts crotch..... 0.o is that what i think it is?

[added23]

@polk122 "that guy in the black shorts"!?!?! you mean Anthony Kiedis. back when this video was taken they were unknown but now everyone should now AK. the peppers are gods. but good eye, i didnt notice him slip out his pickle

[polk122]

@added23 i know who he is i just said it in a relative form so that everyone would understand. lol

[added23]

@polk122 haha. well i think everyone here knows who anthony is. this isnt a dani california video

[wldsthrnboy]

@added23 They weren't unknown lol.They may not have been household names yet. But they were far from unknown. They were thrashing up and down The Strip with Suicidal Tendencies, Slayer, D.R.I, The Dead Kennedys, ect. ect. before the faggot ass hair metal scene took over. Then it was "darkest of days" til the 90's man. At least that's the way I remember it. That' s through a couple decades of Bong resin and sheets of acid though so.
