And I miss youuuuu too, Jany...

I've been really digging their older tracks like Bunker Hill and Body of Water lately, which I kind of just discovered. Which is a fantastic feeling. Also, I love Walkabout.

Please tell me you also discovered 'Sikamikanico' then??? One of my favorites...

I had already been aware of "Sika-mika-nico? Sika-Mika-Nico!" by at least a decade, but yea, these ones just popped out at me.

I think when I originally got into RHCP I grabbed singles off Napster or whatever and then when I went to get them on my new computer I grabbed the discography. I had been pretty sure I was well versed in all their works, but lo and behold, surprise awesome songs from way back when.

I only have one album of theirs. (Stadium Arcadium)

My favorite song by them is Soul to Squeeze since I was a wee baby.

Very good band.

Soul to Squeeze is unlike their other radio singles like Under the Bridge, Californication, Snow. It's a beautiful song. It really stands the test of time and I always thought it an injustice for a Chili Peppers fan to not know of that song, as many didn't/don't. Perfect tune. Not my favorite, but very underrated in my opinion.

what do you think the album? As it is kind of seen as the album that encompasses all the styles of their previous work.

Are there really people who don't know "Soul to Squeeze"? That song was so overplayed.

I'm not making it up brotha. People are ignorant. There are tons of proclaimed fans (I've met in real life, whether from school, work, etc.) that don't know it but would cite "By the Way" as best, or "Scar Tissue", or "Give it Away", and nowadays "Snow". These are posers, mostly, yea, but nevertheless.
