- Taken from the 2004 Fan Q&A, John talks about writing and recording Niandra. I added some great performances and clips from various eras of John's career.

Niandra is one of the 5 best records ever made.
What are the other albums in your top 5?
I'd LOVE THIS for Smile from the streets you hold also!!!
2 of my all time fave LPs of all time
The old is gold as always, but really. This is pure golden work Jessie! Nice cuts with important facts. 💜

Does anyone know the music right at the start for the first few seconds when he's talking about As can be? There's something in the background that's not As can be.
I believe it is just his live version instrumental beginning to As Can Be, as like the album has. And when the talking stops it's the same live version and it starts at the singing part.
It's the intro for Life's a bath
and that song appears on his second album Smile from the streets you hold ,very raw song
It sounds a little bit like that but it's not. It's the live intro from As Can Be from the live performance. John Frusciante - Moguls, Los Angeles, CA, USA (1997-03-29) [AUD #1]

Hi.... John
Whats the footage at 1.50 when he's talking about beach Arab? Any backstory?
That's John at 16 or 17 in Matty Goodman's band Ike. Matty uploaded several videos of John playing and looking like Steve Vai. Matty has an awesome transcription John did of David Lee Roth band's Elephant Gun which of course featured Steve Vai, so that's defintely his influence during this time. Definitely check out Matty's channel @mattygoodman3352 for several videos. They are amazing.
Last song is from ??
The Untitled #11 I used is from KBLT Radio performance from 1998 when John had just rejoined the band before Califonication. The Ten to Butter Blood Voodoo performance is also from that. John joked in later years that in the VPro '94 doc, he was in no shape to be playing, much less playing Untitled #11, so I purposefully chose this beautiful version. ua-cam.com/video/eZlu1URBtx8/v-deo.html
