@BIockbusterz he actually quit the band in 92 because of the fame. he was anti-rock star and didnt like the fact that the chili peppers were getting bigger. his favourite artists were people who were unsuccessful in the mainstream. it definitely helped his music get noticed but he isnt looking for a large audience, just people that truly enjoy his music for what it is.
@BIockbusterz haha u dont know to much about rhcp eh? its a long story. he left in 1992 for a number of reasons. he didnt like the way the band was reacting to the success, he had voices in his head telling him he was supposed to leave and he didnt feel like himself. he had a big drug problem back then (heroin, crack, coke). this video is from about 3 years after he quit drugs. he always released solo records when rhcp wasnt doing anything. in my first response to you i said why he left in 2009.
@BIockbusterz haha dude i thought u meant he shaved his head now in 2011. long hair twice? haha try 40 or 50. ive seen pics of him at 16 with long ass hair. hes had so many different hair styles. this video is from 2001. and as of now he has long hair
@BIockbusterz yea the touring process is the same with any band but that doesnt make it any less challenging. anyone would be tired after working so hard for 5 years. oh and he shaved his head again? are there pictures or something?
@BIockbusterz yea im not saying the chili's are bad. but you have to understand that the writing process with rhcp takes over a year and touring is 3-4 years so its really exhausting. after SA all of the chilis weren't feeling very good thats why they went on hiatus. and john had to wait until after SA to release the empyrean so its practically impossible to do both at the same time. i do agree with you that hes a great guitarist for rhcp but i dont blame him for leaving
@BIockbusterz what do you mean. this songs awesome. josh klinghoffer (a friend of john) is the new replacement and the single is called the adventures of raindance maggie. you probably dont listen to johns music enough to realize the beauty in it. but comparing the chilis to john is like comparing mcdonalds to a sit down restaurant. they both serve different purposes and different audiences
@BIockbusterz well he actually left 4 years ago so its not really recent news. but the reason why is because he doesnt feel the desire to be in a rock band anymore and enjoys spending his time writing his solo work. i cant disagree because while i think the chilis are good, they arent in their prime anymore. they arent really doing anything creative. if you heard their new single it sounds like it could fit on stadium arcadium and johns solo work is always evolving and stays genuine
i love how he gets straight into the song, like he just starts without letting you know he is about to. and love the reference to josh i think it was 'as wonderful and perfect as he is' they must be good mates, what a combination!
@moloko89 so true, there is quite a lot of music (especially Frusciante) which is quite easy and only a few chords but so effective. I have always said its not what you play but how you play it, and Frusciante always plays from the heart :)
haha ya i know i basically wrote your comment. hasorry dude, i just think that eveyrone should listen to his music more, not rap. i was just agreeing =]
i totally agree. I know im replying to your comment that was posted about a month ago but i still agreee! anyone who doesnt enjoy or like fru's solo work doesnt like music. EVEryone these days thinks rap music is the best thing ever.
josh, the pure and wonderfull person that he is ... - song starts. Thank god I´m privileged to feel his songs, the ones who can´t just miss so much... his real emotion and love for music is so touching, and he´s just a human being...well his music is something to hold on to in bad times, and to enjoy in good times. John...thanks
last night i was at a party and I was playing some songs from john like time tonight and my smile is a rifle, my friend was so exciting by theses sounds.
It's just magic that I could give the same feeling as john do ^^
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Love him with the Red Hot, but I cannot understand one word he is singing, and it sounds really really really fucked up. He is a genius behind the guitar though. Just not right here.
i discover his work when i split with my husband...HE BROUGHT LIGHT IN MY LIFE AND INSPIRED ME TO PLAY THE GUITAR...I CAN SAY "THANK YOU JOHN..YOU SAVED ME...REALLY"
Easily one of my favorite of his songs. I hope that someday I'll get to see this man performing his songs live and in person myself... thanks to whoever recorded this.
....luv his shirt.

@BIockbusterz yea he plays at clubs for small audiences since he doesnt have a huge fanbase.
john though that the fame was boosting their egos and they were embracing the rock star life while john was trying to reject it.
