Stop saying you don't like this song because "it sounds like what he did with rhcp". He wrote this song for a close friend named Wayne who passed on. Wayne loved John's long extended solos, therefore John dedicated this to him.
Wayne Forman would be proud of you, John, and Thank You for the music it leaves a resonating echo through my soul that reminds me of the good memories that I shared with my close and dear friend who passed away last month.
This basically describes how i feel about John. that was great. John is great. and whoever doesn't like it, then screw off. for him to make a song in memory of someone, that's something.
i dont even need to smoke.. your music gets me on a high.. i want to meet you so bad before i die. your my inspiration for playing guitar .. this song is a piece of art.. be more than proud of it
listening to jimi with my dad growing up he'd always say "you dont jst listen to jimi, u shut your eyes and feel him..never really understood what he was talking about till i first heard john. its no coincidence tht fans of john feel a spiritual connection through his sound, the guy projects emotion and provokes thoughts through 6 strings, well thts what does it for me: oh) and those almost medeival chord sequences maaaaaaaaaan
"So beautiful" seems trite...but it is...taking in the entire song (in the right environment) actually conveys a gorgeous feeling of peace to this listener, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels that...what an amazing tribute.
It's nice to know that John Frusciante is still at it, and creating such a sonic landscape while using so little. He's one of the few players that I've heard that can take such a supersaturated tone, and be so expressive with it; couple that with the simple drums, bass, and simple guitar picking, you have a piece that will tear at you the rest of the night. Even though it's over, you still want more.
Havent been too fond of his new stuff recently, but this has restored my faith, Gotta love Frusciante on the guitar. Also, R.I.P Wayne, Im sure he was a beautiful man.
This is beautiful. All my sympathy and love goes out to Forman's family and friends. Frusciante, this is a thoughtful thing to do for you friend. May he rest in peace.
This is so inspirational it makes me wanna play guitar and rehears in a relax enviroment so that i can become the best guitar player i can be, just like john Frusciante said several times.
There are guitars in his new music, just obviously, not as many. It's very interesting, intricate & subtle. amazing as always. But I totally agree its so good to hear him play a solo again.
John always amazes me with his mastery of chord progressions and creativity in his use of chords, i personally think they are the secret to his solos, that and his unique timing of notes to the chord played under it =)
Mucho tiempo sin escuchar tu musica... Eres impresionante, lo que tu guitarra y tu estilo transmite... espero que vuelvas a tocar con RHCP , hace mucha falta..... MAESTRO
i can mention a couple, like Jack white, Josh Homme, Dave Grohl, Noel Gallagher. But i stille agree with you, Frusciante is a fucking legend, he's solo stuff is legendary
that's kind of a hard thing to say don' you think? i mean, changing, and moving constantly towards new music, new styles and new creative sources is amazing, and the way john does it makes it even better, but you can't say that staying in the same "style" is doing the same thing over and over again. yes, this is a long guitar solo, and yes we've all heard him play long guitar solos before but each one is different, and each one has a new special feeling and universe inside, and that's special
Great track, lot of emotions that fit,perfectly with the feelings you want to share ;) thank you for bringing this to my ears, i love it. It will give me inspiration ^^ greetz ruben.
This song is amazing...I can also truely understand it, because somehow my best friend died, too...He was the drummer of our band (me the guitarist) and we had known each other for over 4 years. But because of a misunderstanding he now hates us, doesn't talk to us anymore and ended everything. I really wish I could do anything.
He most likely just put a beat on a drum machine and jammed over it. It's John Frusciante we're talking about here, if he had this written in sheet music or structured at all, he'd pull it off flawlessly.
