Girth Radio Presents…
I get the new music spotlight was on Radiohead. We’re all happy Radiohead is back. And yet I caught this dynamic and utterly fantastic track from the Red Hot Chili Peppers:
So much delicious goodness going on!
Flea’s slapdash bass now comes with piano! And at least on this track the Peppers figured out how to use Josh Klinghoffer. It’s hard to replace John Frusciante (impossible?!).
The Red Hot Chili Peppers are the Spurs of rock n roll: Flea is Duncan the power forward, Smith is Pop…doesn’t look like the group and Kiedis is Tony Parker the energetic guard. And no matter how they all age they keep going; they keep succeeding. Outstanding.
