Yesss it’s great to hear someone talking to him that actually knows his work and brilliance. The vpro guy was cool. But I wish there were more who actually appreciated him asking the questions and interacting.
I would love to see an interview of Frusciante with someon incompetent and talk about incompetent things, like there are so many sillt things that I would like to know about JF, like do you do your own dishes? no one asks things like that. But I agree with you man, Rick is the best interviewer of the world
@@renzodangelo845 he used to answer fan questions and some of them asked non music related silly stuff and he actually said he enjoyed answering them. They’re all here on RUclips.
John is one of those guys that has been from one side of the spectrum to the other…From very near death lows to the highest of highs in more ways than one! He’s very experienced in life and many genres of music. He’s incredibly intelligent ,he’s the kind of guy you wanna listen to when trying to learn about life and music! He’s been through it all and he’s still just a young man. Love you John♥️
As an avid John Frusciante fan, this long form interview is just perfect! I get the feeling these two could probably make a million of these podcasts and never get bored... To be honest, neither would I...
These conversations have really inspired me to write. I have been in a writer's block for some months and listening to John's process really jolts me brain.
53:12 John laughing and telling funny stuff makes me so happy man. I'm glad he's here today! My biggest inspiration in many ways. Especially as a guitar beginner he's my inspiration to keep going.
@@Chris_OConnor my pleasure. As someone who has been playing since they were 11 years old (now 35) my biggest advice would be to learn a variety of songs you enjoy in different styles, drill your scales (particularly major, minor and the pentatonic forms), and be diligent about proper picking and strumming technique from the get-go. And practice with a metronome! When we're unaware of bad habits for a long period of time it's hard to break them later. The exercises and drills become fun in time, even though they're difficult at first, and they really do translate to making you a stronger player who has a clearer understanding of what he's truly doing on the fretboard. Have fun with it and enjoy the ride!
@@herritymusick1758 thank you so much for giving some help with your advice about how to learn! This is a good guide to fallow like you been saying to play songs that I like and scales and that, and all with a Metronom.. that's the next thing I'm gonna buy then. Appreciate your time to reply! Thank you and I wish you all the best for your future on the guitar.
32:53 This is what makes their live shows SO GREAT! When you watch them play, they're not just mindlessly copying their own songs, they're genuinely creating music and taking risks on-stage. It makes their music feel alive in a way that other bands rarely achieve anymore. The show this last tour when John's pedalboard went out, and he ended up plugging straight in to his Silver Jubilee amp onstage -- that was such an awesome and authentic moment that conveyed how little there is between these artists and the sound they create.
@28:05 This is a great insight into John's mind. "I've never heard one musician sound like another for all the talk that people do...I've heard people try to but they don't, including electronic music, a person's soul is unique to them)The one think you can't avoid is sounding like yourself."
The Grateful Dead were the masters of improvisation! Every show was never the same, different tempos different atmospheres, every Setlist was completely different every night.
I could listen to John talk couch cushions for 3 hours and not get bored! Please Rick, do as many parts as John will allow. You have a great relationship and it feels like friends talking (and us learning a bunch)
I could listen this podcasts forever. I really would like to hear about Stadium Arcadium era and end of the Tour and about John's feeling on that point just before leaving.
So John used to play along with hiphop records... on bass... playing with his pinkie finger. For some reason this stands out more for me than anything else in this interview.
his love for his bandmates is inspiring 3 decades or more associated with same people and how in 2022 their music is fresh creative brave and inspirational......they are unique 4 artists.....
I can’t stand how much I love these episodes with John Frusciante. I feel spoiled and he’s such a champ for meeting with Rick Rubin to continue these talks. Would love to hear JF in other interviews talk about anything else besides music though, I feel like he has to talk about it too often
I remember being 14, just worshipping Californication, By The Way, and the newly (at the time) released double album; Stadium Arcadium. I was there for John and I always wanted to know what he was thinking, how he got there, etc. Thanks to Broken Record for giving me something I never thought I’d get!
These are the most coolest Frusciante interviews ever. I’m just blown away by his knowledge of all the different bands and how he brought them into his style. Especially Nirvana, wow, taking a song like Even in His Youth. I get why I love that chorus now. I agree with him, In Utero is the best album.
Thank you for the opportunity to dive into the mind of one of the most outstanding musicians and for the absolute love and inspiration of my life! God bless all people who made this record for us ❤️ We appreciate it!
Finally, I have been waiting so long for the continuation of this series of incredible interviews! Thank you for your work, it is very important and interesting.
John is so right about rhythm guitar parts that don't repeat themselves being way harder to learn than solos. I notice that particularly when I learn Jimi Hendrix songs. I've never took as long to learn a song as I have with a Hendrix song. There's just so much going on that being able to not just remember the notes, but also the order in which the parts are played is a lot.
These interviews make my heart so happy. When I see another part of his series with Rick pop up, I automatically get a flash of the interview where Anthony brought up John saying “I was born to be in this band” and I can’t help but get a huge smile on my face, because John truly radiates that. I’ve always love the Peppers but John brought back this spark to them and made me fall in love with them all over again. Thank you for these interviews Rick! I hope they keep coming ❤
I can’t wait for the next episode with finally some solo albums conversations and a performance of Dying Song, this is so exiting! I really hope John will do another folk/rock album. I miss he sound so much! Thanks Rick for these incredible interviews.
33:25 When he talks about Chad being more sensitive and responsive to music when playing, i was thinking ( i might be wrong) it's becouse of previous tours with Josh . Becouse Josh is also a drummer, and he mentioned many times that he always paid extra attention to Chad's playing and when Chad was doing smth different or exiting or surprising Josh used to give him a look , a smile . Maybe that interaction made Chad play like he plays now , the thing Frusciante said here . Probably wrong, but it crossed my mind while i was listening
John Frusciante is THE MAN as far as I'm concerned. Love his solo stuff, and when he sings chorus's and plays solos on the chilli's songs the music is elevated and just soars. I'm so glad he's back. Can't wait to see him play with them again nexyt year!
Im beginning to realise as someone who loves playing along with RHCP live shows on RUclips, that John's influences work their way into my playing because I'm doing what John was doing.
I’m so happy this has turned into some kind of a miniseries. John is the reason I picked up a guitar. His philosophy on music inspires my own North Star. I’ve wondered and waited for so long to know his feelings about the years in the mid 90s and the return to the band. Thank you Broken Record crew 🤙🏼
John really dove deep into the interval playing style on Niandra Lades and Ususlly Just a T Shirt....I remember back in 99 when Scar Tissue first came out the opening riff sounded so much like a more complete odea taken from his Usually just a T Shirt. They absolutely flirted with the muted synchronized picking idea of Parrallel Universe back when they did Felas Cock...another song I saw as a definite progression of an idea....although I like Felas Cock more
Man o man if Frusciante did a tell-all biography That would be the best. The deeper sides of him are so interesting to me as man trying to explore his boundaries.
Been listening to 1 part of the interview per night. Fucking awesome. John and Rick could be egotiscal shallow assholes if they wanted to be, but they're both so humble and just truly love the art. I know a lot of artists and creative people relate to John's story, especially with harnessing creativity and then not knowing what direction to take it in. How to make yourself happy but please the people around you. It's a really tough situation. People want your gift, but its yours and you're left feeling empty after giving so much. Idk it just resonates for me. I could go on for hours but I shan't. Respect to these 2, big up john always. Icon.
man, i've never been so invested in anything audio/podcast. but ofc this is john and rick rubin! listening to john play the guitar (no video) was magic (: thank you for this. part 4 next.
Thanks for this inspiring interview series, it's so wonderful to hear how John is really living his music. And Rick is such a great listener and interviewer and of course he was there for the ride. This is even better than John writing an autobiography (which would be great as well)!
He uses this shape a lot though, check out his that tutorial he did for a guitar magazine from his couch in 2006. It’s more or less the same shape he uses for Scar Tissue and the same as Paul McCartney used on Blackbird
Under the bridge is one of the main reasons I picked up a guitar and I've been TRYING to play it for 7 years now and whenever I play that song it still sounds like I just learned it yesterday. Such a hard song.
While discussing Californication John put accent on big intervals. Its struck me as connection to Blood Sugar era when Rick intruduced idea of giving each instrument more space, letting it sound and even starting some songs without certain part to introduce it later. These analyses are behind amazing
You know Rubin is special by hearing these interviews. John is a very complicated guy when it comes to making a connection through conversing, but Rick has a way of making someone feel comfortable and open up, enjoying conversation. Love these interviews and love hearing John enjoy them.
The way he describes live playing is how it feels to be on really tight, good basketball team that doesn't exactly run plays but has a framework of an offense that they run. The players are connected telepathically through many practices and games played together, they communicate with eye contact, head nods, etc. Being tight off the court helps a ton too.
I’m sure it helps that he’s talking to Rick but good to hear this much from John. Definitely feels like he’s warmed up compared to the John we saw in the announcement videos for the recent tour/album.
How I can relate to what John said, like how I'd "dislike" artists who were contemporary or what the people listen to because their songs are great. But I know deep inside I actually liked their music and loved to listen to it. It reminded me of his interview way back about Duran Duran and Depeche mode 😅😂
It's very interesting to me through this series, especially in this one, as a kid - I looked at John very similarly to the way he was looking at a lot of styles and eras of music that influenced him. I loved his technique to add space, while the songwriting/production elements he'd add to those Californication to Stadium Arcadium era would bring this popular rock album together. Taking that backseat for others to roll in and do their part. Now, 20+ years later, I have ventured far away from the music of my own childhood, make music that does not sound anything like John's work, but when he picks up the guitar and explains how intervals of two far away notes add meaning much more than strumming what the basis of the song - it becomes a lot more interesting and implied. Like you hear where it came from, you know what it is, but it's way more meaningful to add space. When Rick is like - "Interesting, I would've never heard the similarities" but I can hear how that might've influenced it, I think about the different viewpoints we the listener come from vs. John the writer who conceptualized it vs. Rick who produced it among hundreds of other albums from all these different genres, it all makes sense. Thanks for keeping this series going, team!

It would be great to hear John talking about his solo albums too.
I'm so glad he is doing hours of interviews with Rick rather than 10 minute ones with incompetent interviewers with boring questions
I really hope that becomes a trend for artists in general
Yesss it’s great to hear someone talking to him that actually knows his work and brilliance. The vpro guy was cool. But I wish there were more who actually appreciated him asking the questions and interacting.

I feel that these interviews with Rick will be the closest we ever get to an autobiography from John ❤
U could well be right
John is an amazing artist if he choose to do a autobiography it would be amazing if his ❤️ was in it
Funny, I thought exactly the same
his interview on flea's podcast is more autobiographical
@@morrisalanisette9067 I agree. Flea's podcast with John was amazing!!!
There's also a podcast hosted by flea which is very nice if you want to give It a liste 😊
Im a complex man, but when I see a new John frusciante interview, I turn into a simple fangirl and click instantly
I totally understand you, "simple fangirl"☺️
A hundred percent
Me too 😅
You are most likely not a complex man then
I see what you mean, I'd never want to meet him as I'd blush and squeak out some strange sounds haha.
Lets please keep these Rick and John episodes going for as long as humanly possible 😻
I could listen to Rubin and Frusciante talking like this every week for years
Its ricks voice with headphones its like a low bass note
John is one of those guys that has been from one side of the spectrum to the other…From very near death lows to the highest of highs in more ways than one!

And we don't want it to end lol
John playing the song Untitled #2, from Niandra LaDes in minute 58:10 made my whole day.
These conversations have really inspired me to write. I have been in a writer's block for some months and listening to John's process really jolts me brain.
Same
What are you writing?
@@lomarsweed6604 I am a musician. Trying to write some new songs, mainly trying to fall in love with the guitar again, build better habits with it.
I need a John biography for sure. I loved Scar Tissue and Acid for the Children. Come on John!

The Comerica Park show in Detroit? He had some big tech issues there, and plugged in to his amp for Californication. I was there for that show lol
i feel very similarly about radiohead
@28:05 This is a great insight into John's mind. "I've never heard one musician sound like another for all the talk that people do...I've heard people try to but they don't, including electronic music, a person's soul is unique to them)The one think you can't avoid is sounding like yourself."

So much golden information here…
John, anytime you grab the guitar I'm in heaven. God Bless you man.
Linguistic, Intrapersonal, Interpersonal, and Musical intelligence in audio display. I desire to directly speak to people like this. You feel this.
So John used to play along with hiphop records... on bass... playing with his pinkie finger. For some reason this stands out more for me than anything else in this interview.
lol yeah I like to think of myself as studying music but I will never learn to play along to records on bass using only my pinkie lol
It hurts my finger just thinking about it
his love for his bandmates is inspiring 3 decades or more associated with same people and how in 2022 their music is fresh creative brave and inspirational......they are unique 4 artists.....
Pure gold. Every part of this series has been pure gold. Thank you for bringing us this content, its absolutely amazing.

The scar tissue solo is one of the main reasons why I picked up my guitar
Under the bridge is one of the main reasons I picked up a guitar and I've been TRYING to play it for 7 years now and whenever I play that song it still sounds like I just learned it yesterday. Such a hard song.
The Scar Tissue solo - expecially the last one - is the main reason why I started being really seriously passionate about music when I was 15.
Would die for a video of this
I love listening to these two talk about music. I always learn so much.. John is such a professor! 🔥🔥
While discussing Californication John put accent on big intervals. Its struck me as connection to Blood Sugar era when Rick intruduced idea of giving each instrument more space, letting it sound and even starting some songs without certain part to introduce it later. These analyses are behind amazing
I’m learning other side on bass and guitar right now. Thank you for this brilliant explanation
What a pure and creative soul! John truly is an amazing musician and a very interesting person!
This is so precious and john is such a deep genuinely philisophical mind
Awesome conversation. John and Rick have great chemistry. Seems like a friendship based on love of music
John is always right on time
Absolute genius. My love for John is immeasurable. If you know you know.

The way he describes live playing is how it feels to be on really tight, good basketball team that doesn't exactly run plays but has a framework of an offense that they run. The players are connected telepathically through many practices and games played together, they communicate with eye contact, head nods, etc. Being tight off the court helps a ton too.
Yes!! Thank you so much, this needs to happen even more often!!
God bless you Rick. Please make this thing go forever, John Frusciante every weak for 100 years atleast
I could listen for those 2 everyday, ignites my motivation for everything art related
Don't stop
37:39 idk how john does this live. It sounds so perfect when he does it
These are the best! ❤️
Unlimited love to you guys too Rick and John
