AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING

John Frusciante

New Album: The Empyrean on Record Collection 1.20.2009

My Uncle knows a member of Record Collection, thats why I get it.
PLEASE BUY THE CD/LP!!!

Just Audio with some pics.

The Empyrean is my new record and will be released worldwide via Record Collection on January 20th 2009. It was recorded on and off between December 2006 and March 2008. It is a concept record that tells a single story both musically and lyrically. The story takes place within one person, and there are two characters. It contains a version of Tim Buckleys, 'Song To The Siren' and the rest of the songs are written by me. My friend Josh plays on it, as does Flea. It also features Sonus Quartet, Johnny Marr and The New Dimension Singers. I'm really happy with it and I've listened to it a lot for the psychedelic experience it provides. It should be played as loud as possible and it is suited to dark living rooms late at night.

It's not bout being the best guitarist, it's about creating a beautiful piece of art.

[bromania13]

i think comparing guitarists is fairly overrated..you just have favorites!

[nudgeman79]

out of this world! it's so fucking genuine.

[SolowBoy]

first few seconds of hearing this i can hear some influence from Eddie Hazel, at least with maggot brain. hope john will keep making music....

[chrislarson15]

if you knew anything about guitar, you wouldn't be arguing with people about it on youtube, you would be playing.

I Would Say:

It's about creating a beautiful piece of art, not realising or caring that you're the best guitarist.

Amazing Song, Amazing Album!

neh very creative and soul-driven... but honestly not the best guitar player in the world..

to claim that you have to know every single guitar player playing at their best, which is practically impossible lol

for his psychedelic funk bluesy type of music i think frusciante is one of the best.. now guitar in general? no..

[hnjrocks]

wow such serious technical talking about guitar players when all comes down to its who can combine decsent skills with great riffs and just groove out so you can just be absorbed by the sounds, there are many great guitarist in the professional world (malmstene-via-)and so on but did thy really grab the soul when they played?

[Garamiah]

Frusciante is more overrated than Hendrix, Vai, Satriani etc. If you are after emotional playing that blows Frusciante out of the water then listen to David Gilmour.

Mike McCready rarley writes music, just guitar parts over Eddie and Stone's songs. Metal shredders are just one very limited aspect of guitar playing, and Johnny Greenwood doesn't play guitar on half of Radiohead's songs. John is the best guitar player in the world.
