      Love all these riffs! Frusciante is so great at playing just the right parts that blend with Flea, Chad Smith and Kedis. He always serves the song! Another killer riff is “Suck My KISS”

    • @montraix
      @montraix 4 роки тому +3

      Guitar Pilgrim Can’t Stop is THE best riff, and I truly appreciate that someone else realizes how great “I Could Have Lied” is, I was just telling my son yesterday, I believe that is Fruciante’s best studio recorded guitar solo, though “Torture Me” is more explosive!

    • @GuitarPilgrim

      Guitar Pilgrim. it´s everytime a great pleasure to watch your amazing guitar playing. Frusciante and you are great Guitarists. My personal favourite Song is "Under the Bridge" and this since from the start in 1991. You definitely can hear and feel the influence of Jimi. "Can´t Stop" is great Rock´n Roll too. The Hardest thing (for me) is to play "Snow". Thank you very much for your inspiring Videos

    Ahhhhhhhh you touch my soul. Thank you :) I grew up with the Chilli Peppers. I was 13 years old when Under the Bridge came out before we had the internet in Adelaide, Australia. I had Blood Sugar Sex Magic on CD (yes in the dinosaur age hahaha) I learned how to play it on my classical guitar painstakingly by ear. Wow 28 years later what a gorgeous surprise to hear you do Frusciante's elegant playing some sweet justice. Thank you :) We are sooo spoiled now with tabs at our fingertips and UA-cam tutorials. Glad I learned the hard way since I was 8 years old though, wouldn't trade my hard earned years of practice.
