- I compiled all the Hillel Slovak in Europe By Storm February 1988
Hillel one of my biggest inspirations - Hillels limited interviews and content is worth more to me that all the other content.

He was a really nice guy. Got to meet him once, gave him a pack of smokes and he told the bartender to put my tab on the band. I was 15, it was a fun night. Rest in Peace
thanks for sharing such a lovely memory
@Lisa Surlie why can’t u shut the fuck up
@Lisa Surlie what a loser you are!
@Lisa Surlie from shooting dog food to being worm food
very different than the addicts of the later times.... much more aware... really fitting them so well
Man he seems cool as fuck. What a voice and presence he had. Never really heard him speak and express himself verbally before.
I get why the guys still talk about him. He seems like a fucking genius who was only just getting started. I can hear and see the way the guys still honour him through their music. He was a huge inspiration, I’ve only just seen this video and you can tell. Proper clever dude. What a guy.
And plus Chilis were not gonna exist without him
now you understand flea.... after watching this video.... huge loss for him and the band.... the only suitable replacement was john.... no one else.... and john did a wonderful job and truly replaced him at the level hillel would expect.
Really makes me wonder what would RHCP be had Hillel not passed away.
articulate, deeply soulful and mystical, without taking himself too seriously. he really had it all and you can tell why he was the spiritual leader of the band and inspires musicians and artists to this day.
I was lucky enough to see him/them play 4 times before he died. Still one of my favorite guitar styles/sounds.
Beautiful voice and person, Hillel
@Lisa Surlie oh fuck off...
@Lisa Surlie John Frusciante Made a lot of extremely boring solo albums and did loads of heroin (and quit the band twice) and he's an egomaniac.
He's Israeli. That's why his accent sounds like it does.
@Lisa Surlie Dave Navarro is the best.
Both Hillel and Navarro were more technically skilled players than Frusciante. Yes he wrote the best songs but he’s definitely not the best Chili’s guitarist when it comes to skill.
you can sense this is who he is without drugs; what a polite, intelligent gentleman...
Drugs dont make u impolite

@@clinteastwood6875 until u get a 20
Opiates brought out an asshole side to me.
Hillel was the brains of the band more or less...sad that he never got to experience the big break that came in the early 90s, your local mainstream rock station is not usually gonna play any pre mothers milk chili peppers tunes...
gridracing
yeah
well, I feel like that's a little contradictory. Hillel was awesome and does seem like he was the brain of the band during that time, but the break in the 90's was due a lot to the fact that john got to express his own creativity. Not sure they would have gotten as big if they had remained the same
I think if Slovak got off the heroin he could have made the deeper, more mature kind of music that the chilis did later, he seems smart. I mean of course Frusciante is one of a kind and Chad Smith would never have joined so it would be a lot different, but still good i think. Probably not the biggest band in the world though.
I've actually heard Fight Like a Brave on the radio a couple of times, but extremely few and far between.
i think he got to experience it...just not in physical form. he was with them every step of the way.
He was indeed a very handsome young man.Too sad and tragic his life had to end way early.R.I.P Hillel :(
Ok all but handsome..?😅I can accept for the face of kiedis..
Syd Barrett, Hillel Slovak & Layne Staley have formed a supergroup with Bonzo, Jon Lord & Cliff Burton somewhere in heaven.
Hillel and Kurt Cobain 10,000% hit it off when they linked up up there
@@MikeBruscadefinitely. They probably sat down and hit the bag together.
@@MikeBruscadefinitely. They probably sat down and hit the bag together and talked about music.
Awesome guitarrist. RIP Hillel!🙏🏼
What a guy. You can tell how much John has been inspired by Hillel, the feeling and expression are just...there.
Just found this. Thanks for sharing, there isn't too much footage like this of just Hillel. He was an amazing guitarist who inspired me to play
We never really got a chance to see that much (video wise) from Hillel. What a beautiful human being! You could really feel his words and feelings. Much love and respect!
very nice guy
02:02
Wow, I didn't even know that he was a blues player too. Where the heck have I've been!
RIP Hillel!
being a hendrix nt like him how can you not also be a blues player
Right? I hadn’t heard him just goof around like that on a clean tone before. He was a super tasty player, I wish there was more recordings of him doing that kinda thing. Or that he’d just had the chance to record more, period.
@Lisa Surlie And you sound like you smoke 5 packs a day. Why so much hate for a dead musician? It's crazy that some people are really that miserable. Maybe get a hobby or something.
Hillel is such an amazing soul. So sad he passed. RIP.
Hillel was so talented, it was never the same 😢
You can see why him and Anthony were so tight.
Immediately. Kindred spirits
@Lisa Surlie you have no life Karen
look at that smile omg what a cutie
He's the main reasons I started playing guitar very big inspiration to me rip hillel
RIP this angel of a man. It’s been 32 years now without his existence on Earth. You’re a legend, Hillel. Forever in my heart, and forever the backbone of RHCP. I love you.
3:32 I love him so much more for that....to say that in the 80s?! Soul so pure and evolved....way ahead of his time, of any time! rip hillel YOU'RE STILL MAKING AN IMPACT.
very much ahead of his time and also does not look like an addict what so ever
His voice sends a shiver down my spine
Seems like he was an awesome guy. Great speaking voice.
Hillel Slovak Legendary Guitarist 🎸🤟 My Favourite I Love You Friend
Helluva voice on this guy! This is the first interview I've heard of his; sounds like a more erudite Vin Diesel.
Keith Klassen Kinda sounds like rocky.
miss you hillel. a LOT of us wish he was still here today. his music wasn't the least bit depressing, even when he was facing his ultimate fate. always had a friggin spark of magic to it even to the end. a true man, injured and troubled yes, but true to himself and his bandmates ❤
Wow I wasn't expecting his voice to be that deep! This is the first interview I've ever seen of Hillel Slovak, & seems like a pretty down to earth guy. I'd love to talk to him
4 Months later he died.
Today is his anniversary, he's 33 years gone today R.I.P
RIP Hillel Slovak 🙏💗
Hillel is the best RHCP guitarist! He's my inspiration.
I was only 6 years old when he died. I didn't know much about RHCP till the next year, but Hillel seemed so chilled, despite his struggles with addiction. He was a great guitarist, evolving, and getting better. I love their early works, "Behind The Sun" is my favorite song by them. What could've been... Rest In Peace, Hillel (1962-1988)
I wonder how he'd feel about the bands later work...
he would be proud and happy for them that they succeeded.
He would have been so damn proud of Anthony and Michael for keeping the
band alive after all theses years from 1983 till now with so far 11
great albums under their belts.
gridracing z
He'd absolutely love them
I think he would be so proud
Knew a girl whose mom knew him. They were friends in school. She said he was such a sweet and quiet guy. Very funny and often just off in his own head. She always got very emotional whenever he was brought up. Later on in life I ended up by the apartment he passed in. Couldnt bring myself to go though. Very surreal.
Hillel is my favorite pepper
Wacthing this again made me remember my influences. I want so much to be in a band, but its so hard to be in a rock band nowadays... It's completely different from the 80's and 90's vibes. Sometimes I have only the will of giving up everything and try it in another life. But watching this now, i remember how amazing all of this was to me some years ago, when it was all i have in the afternoons of school vacation and think that it's worth at least to try...
You wanna be in a band? Easy. Move into a cheap place, get a 9-5er Monday - Friday (Thursday if you can). Spend every night working on writing songs or learning music theory/covers. Find some kindred spirits (they’re out there) and convince them to join you. Find a rehearsal space. Teach them the music. Get at least 30mins Minimum of material together. Walk into pubs and ask about gigs with no expectation of actually getting one but do it anyway.
From experience, the hardest part is your band mates both a) wanting to play the same material you do and b) working around each other’s schedule to at least practice 1-2 nights a week.
Do or do not..there is no try
@@AshaRenWooly no, no, ask anthony it is not the same, anthony literally created history with his style and the way he sang and wrote music so did flea... today it is different.... she would never have same success and today the timeline is collapsing....music is much less quality.... it is a mess
@@michelleper5065 I have no idea what this is referring to sorry
I wish we could live in a world where somehow all the great guitarists of the Chili Pepper are still around and were able to be shine to their fullest potential.
he was such a cool guy
Feb 1988?? OMG! Hillel would be dead just 4 months later. So sad. :(
Yeah this was that tour that when they arrived he had to detox cold turkey and was fucked up for like 5 days.. But himself and Anthony didn't touch heroin that whole tour, and when they got back to L.A, they started to use again and his body wasn't tolerant enough... Its so fucking sad I hate shit like that happening to anybody but especially to our best and brightest like this young man.
The way Anthony describes their final few memories together really broke my heart. When they talked about sobriety on the train, and then said goodbye at the airport. Neither knew he'd be gone within a couple weeks. Rip
@Lisa Surlie weirdo
He created a totally new sound with out him the sound would not of come to be the reason I created hillel he teached flea the bass and got him into rock its true no hillel no peppers period
Fn 4 pedals
Yeah
Dudes couldn’t carry his jock in a suitcase
“Like I use in black eyed blonde”
TY for posting this
Nice to know that if I want to hear or see from him that it’s there
No matter how you play, you play from where you’re from
That’s what you should take from Hillel
Eterno Hillel💔
Would’ve loved to see the musical development of Hillel, and the fact that such potential was wasted saddens me. However, it is great to see the influence he had over Frusciante, whom i’d consider a reincarnation of Hillel in a sense...
it would be same as john with better technical but john was very smart to know he had to excel in the writing ability and as you can clearly see john wrote some of the best songs in history...... literally wrote some of the best songs in history with some of the best backup and guitar parts in history so he made hillel proud i am sure
@@michelleper5065 i don't know about the best songs in history , but sure he make great music whit the peppers for sure
I didnt realize until right now that he was clearly the leader of the group and the other members looked up to him. RIP
Eddie, as youve done with bradley and sublime, the fact you're doing this with hillel is awesome. If you have anymore you should post it. As always great video sir!
never heard him talk before his voice is so deep
Man this poor guy never had the chance to see how BIG his band would become
What is it about the leaders of every group, Jimi, Jim, John, Janis, Hillel, Jerry, Sid that they are gone way before their time? Hillel is definitely one of them. This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you Hillel. How could he not be on a much better plane for those that are much more evolved than the rest of us.
albarino gold I hear ya! even Brad from sublime.gone too fast .
Also shannon hoon from blind melon. There are just certain people who care more than the rest, they're the ones with a vision who shape and make a band what they are. They always seem to go first its a bummer
Jerry García?
Don't forget Buddy Holly, Kurt Cobain, and some other people too
Brian Jones of Rolling Stones
Hillel forever ❤
This is the first time I've ever seen in a video. First time I've heard him speak. I have to say, the way he speaks sounds a lot how Anthony speaks.
This was a really amazing clip I don't think I've ever seen so much of Hillel I don't know how I haven't seen this before
Funk is a state of mind.
Don't judge me and my soul stew.
"it stands for spontaneouty."♥️
Hillel was such cool guy unique talent
Wow, what a loss... That was the first I really listened to Hillel. What might have been...
Is there much more footage of Hillel being interviewed out there? He has such an awesome speaking voice and more to say than Anthony who seems to stick to patter
עצוב מאוד!
but look what he did, look what he left behind, he created one of the best bands in history!
I’d give my toes to have his voice
Happy birthday hillel
Hearing him talk about sly is super cool because you can completely hear he feels that way with his playing on it you want me to stay. That guitar part is absolutely crazy beautiful you can tell he has so much love for soul.
what this guy could have become.....
He was awesome but could have possibly became legendary if he'd lived longer .
@Lisa Surlie you are a piece of shit.
@Lisa Surlie Dude stfu ur a Frusciante fanboy who’s forgetting that he spent all of the 90’s shooting up. Don’t be such a hypocrite.
@@billybutcher4995 if this is a frusciante fanboy then she doesn’t know nothing about how much hillel influenced john, but if u consider that she comment on every single comment with some negative shit about slovak that says it all about this childish piece of shit, i love frusciante too but i’m not being this retarded.
enjoy music guys, it is a real treasure
@@aztecwhistle9122 he would be hall of famer like the rest of them with over 100 million dollars like the rest of them lol
God, he's so fucking beautiful. I love Hillel. Really wish he lived so we'd get to see what would become of the Peppers if he didnt pass. Also, I'm pretty sure this is my first time hearing his voice, wow its deep as fuck.
Rest in peace my lovely man, you are eternally adored and I will always love your work with the Peppers forever and ever.
He and Anthony have a similar cadence in their speaking - he gives me a sense of peace. Ying and Yang he and Anthony.
He really was a lovely man
I'll be out in the cold tonight with no blanket in sight this just aint RIGHT!!!
wish that was longer!
Hillel. Legend.
@Lisa Surlie just be quiet, no one likes u
@Lisa Surlie you seem to have a strange obsession with dogging the man
Hilel, Flea and Antony were on one row. Realy 3 Leaders. Who knows what had happen if he lived longer. He was a cool sock! R.I.P
Those early, two knob boss pedals…so cool…
Great guitar player.
🎼Don’t you know funk’s color blind🎼
The last song has an intro that sounds a lot like "Riviera Paradise" by Stevie Ray Vaughan. RIP Hillel
Hillel looks like Jim from the office
Rock21 - Jim on smack.
@Lisa Surlie your life is insanely sad. Are you jealous this man accomplished more in his life than you? You have left like 20 comments saying horribly rude shit about a fucking dead man and you’re a 50 year old Karen. You have less than half your life left and this is how you spend it. You have no friends no one loves you and you’re pathetic. Loser
He talking about sly stone/ the family stone? Makes sense if so BC. um.. we need the funk
Drugs....fuck!...no!....Hillel RIP beautiful funky rocking genius boy...Jehovah keep your beautiful soul forever...
He seems like a cool sweet guy
antoine and flea exchanging slaps is the most bro shit ever
Seemed like such a nice guy
rest in peace champ
as a rhcp listener, i feel very stupid, that i listened 19 yrs ago the first time to them, but noticed just today, that chad, anthony, flea and john have not been the original crew..i didnt deal with slovak before, but just right now, when i saw that video..i guess, that this guy would have had a big career with rhcp..i feel sorry, for his family, friends and the band..heroin is such a mess..but im amazed, that rhcp did come out so fuckin well..i guess, slovak, would have loved that fact..
big? he was RHCP.... he and flea and anthony and ofc chad but he flea and anthony were big deal.... very close
@@michelleper5065 what i meant was, that he never witnessed the big breakthrough in a commercial way..like i said, i guess he would have been happy for the guys👌🏻🙂
Hillel was the star of the peppers, the embodiment of the band and without him, they had two good albums (Mother's Milk and BSSM). After that, they became equivalent to Britany Speers.
i know what you mean but tbh sounds like you got a sorta prejudice towards their new music and you don't wanna hear it for some reason because i mean c'mon are you seriously trying to say californication, by the way and stadium arcadium weren't fucking sick? They're new albums with josh i would agree doe there's really only some good songs while the rest are poppy as hell.
Go listen to Deep Kick, Get on Top, Right on Time, I Could Die For You, Throw away yout TV, Readymade, Walocks, So Much I then came here and delete this
LOL you are out of your mind, they are literally top 6 bands in history
this bands hits are very much great music nothing even remotely close to the junk of the wannabes
Hillel Slovak (hebreo: הלל סלובק; Haifa, 13 de abril de 1962 - Los Ángeles, 25 de junio de 1988) fue un músico estadounidense de origen israelí, conocido por ser el guitarrista original y fundador de la banda de funk rock Red Hot Chili Peppers, con la que grabó los álbumes Freaky Styley (1985) y The Uplift Mofo Party Plan (1987). Murió el 25 de junio de 1988 debido a una sobredosis de heroína.
Hillel Slovak died 34 years ago today. R.I.P
He talked like jimi hendrix
...And played too. As in: the connection to the music is direct, it's in there...the fingers ears hearts...
Personalmente me gustan más los tres primeros discos de los red hot... sucedió lo que debía suceder pero sin hille no hubiera nacido esta banda, ni hubiera sido lo que fue..
epic!
Tragic loss
I'm not a real HUGE! R.H.C.P ' s fan but i def do consider them great musicians & i have a ton of respect for them & i DON'T! Dis-like them at all really..... i'm just saying they're not like in my top-5 fav bands but "Hillel" & "Flea" were soooo F'N great, & wickedly awesome guitar players((..& Flea still is to this day!!...& Hillel will always forever be!!...))
"R.I.P" -A-True Guitar Pioneer That Was Taken Way Too Soon & Very Sadly Hardly/Barely Had A Chance To Show All Of His Guitar Chops & His Fullest Playing Abilities & Potential !!!..... Just As/Like His Idol & Favorite Guitarist *"Jimi Hendrix"* Also Very Sadly Did Years Before Him...((Around The Same Age Give Or Take-A-Year Or Two))... In "1970" Another True Guitar Pioneer Great & Legend & Also My Favorite Guitar Player As-Well
@Lisa Surlie well that's a terrible bleak view on things! Yes his physical corpse is qoute-on-quote: "worm food!"... but in spirit he lives on after death he was a amazing guitarist & was key staple in crafting the early sound of the Red Hot Chili Peppers & even heavily inspired their most know guitarist John Frusciante another amazing guitarist & inspired many others in this world! & is talked about & remembered to this day! Many! people looking him up! & are watching videos of him! & about him! just like YOU did! So i really can't understand why you would purposefully look up & watch a video of Hillel Slovak & then to proceed to send a stupid smartass negative reply to comment! just stating my opinions on the Red Hot Chili Peppers & Hillel Slovak being an awesome guitarist!
@Lisa Surlie So was Anthony dummy it was Hillel's death & after finally seeing his grave & headstone it scared Anthony into trying to get clean! & he did for a while but he's had slips & relapses dude & at around the time of Hillel's death he had a while clean & got into painting! & the one weekend he called his brother saying something like he was depressed & mentioned a past breakup he had & saying the coping methods weren't working anymore & felt the urge to use & he said something like it's hard it's everywhere! & his brother tried to pep talk him back up saying you're doing great you don't need any of that stuff & to focus on his paintings & music & eventually the phone-call came to a mutual end! & Hillel ending relapsing for that weekend & eventually OD'ed probably having a lower tolerance from being clean for a while but anyways what i am saying is everyone has issues but that's no right put them down or ridicule them or make fun of them for it! we're all human!
@Lisa Surlie wish u the worst of luck
@Lisa Surlie and some day, you will be as well. The great equalizer, as they say. But at least people remember Hillel. You? I am not so sure about.
they are very good musicians, flea is very good musician, hillel had a lot to do with this, anthony is superb he knows exactly his strength and weaknesses and use everything to his benefit... he also has great presence especially when they got big... very great presence.... always brought the masculinity but with TALENT and the musician to go with it.... and ofc john what can i say more of him and the drummer chad is very good and was fitting the band like glove

Life is not fair. What can I say...
2:04 AMAZING!!!
Rip hillel slovak
He sounds so much Like Ari Shaffir
❤️
Sounds like the pedal flea uses now 2:48
I had a JAX FUZZ/WAH with the same exact fuzz 1/ fuzz 2 sounds + wah pedal. Japanese, kinda loaded pc board, all resistors standing, several silicon transistors.
I used it with the CRAIG ANDERTON 'PROJECT 21- PHASE SHIFTER, WITH 'VIBRATO SWITCH 'ON''...I called it the DE-TUNE-ATOR! Played into 50W SOUND CITY HEAD, INTO 4 CELESTIONS (2-50WATT, 1 GREEN BACK, 1 GREY BACK.
i PUT THE CELESTIONS IN A 4-12" cab that staggered the speakers so cab was narrower, but a bit taller...it was a Sears Silvertone cab that was originally with a 'nothing special' white face Silvertone Solid State guitar amp. This cab had two straight 3" plastic wheels on a single axle, recessed under the back ( the cab tapered on the lower back to accommodate wheels). I describe that cab because it was fucking great! Not as heavy as a typical Marshall 4x12 cab, but I couldn't break it or rattle it, even with my other SOUND CITY 120R w/ 6 EL34 output tubes! Lots of gigs!
Oh' btw, I built every PROJECT IN CRAIG ANDERTON'S 'PROJECTS FOR MUSICIANS except the TUNER, the Metronome, and the Mini-amp. The 'PREAMP', 'SUPER TONE CONTROL', AND THE PHASE SHIFTER. The 'TUBE SOUND FUZZ' using a CMOS chip sounded pretty convincing for jazz.
3:40 beautiful song, what chords is he using
Noah S major 7ths
G Mick thank you. I ended up learning it by ear
Mike Bloomfield kindred spirit
I never thought of that before, but I can see it
Are John Frusciante ever meet or hanging out with Hillel?
Yes! He was a teenage fan in the early days and met him at least once. He quotes a conversation they had Hillel asks John if he’d still be a fan when they got famous and played stadiums. John says no it would ruin the vibe. 😂
@@thelmadickinson2740 lol john made him proud.... he wrote some of th best songs in music history
He reminds me of Snakefinger in a way
Drug take out every single talented individual we love, but let’s be realistic Hollywood is so fucking toxic & that place gives out the killer fucking drugs.
