Come avrebbe suonato "Heroes" di David Bowie senza la mano di Tony Visconti? E "Thriller" di Michael Jackson senza quella di Quincy Jones? E "Blood Sugar Sex Magick" senza quella di Rick Rubin? Se questi album sono considerati classici, il merito non è solo dei musicisti ma anche di coloro che stanno al di là del vetro, a lavorare con manopole e cursori e spesso a indirizzare lo stesso processo creativo: i produttori. In questa puntata passiamo in rassegna alcuni dei più leggendari.Playlist: Ike & Tina Turner - "River Deep Mountain High"Quincy Jones - "Birdland"David Bowie - "I Can't Give Everything Away"Robert Wyatt - "Heaps Of Sheeps"Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Breaking The Girl"
Artist, musician, academic, and member of legacy American experimental band ONO Conor Tomaka joins the show once more, but with a specific purpose this time around. John Frusciante is already a God-level figure in the oeuvre of Safety Propaganda, but this time we are going back to the virtuoso guitarist of the Chili Peppers and experimental solo artist's infamous and masterful first two albums: Niandra Lades and Usually just a T-Shirt and Smile from the Streets you Hold. Both of these albums were recorded on a 4-track tape recorded in the early '90s when Frusciante was closing in on death due to intensely high and daily usages of heroin and crack cocaine. Video documents of the artist at his home show the once handsome and vivacious punk rock LA kid as a death shadow of his former self: cheeks sank all the way into his jaw, teeth falling out, ghastly white and pallid, anything resembling muscle tone vanished. He was disintegrated, and these albums are gorgeous-avant pop ballads disintegrating into the abyss. Niandra was partly recorded in Frusciante's bedroom at the mansion where he and the Chi-Peps recoded Blood Sugar Sex Magick at night time, and the second more ambient and abstract side was recorded after he'd left the band and plunged into addiction. Smile was recorded during similar sessions, he says, and includes vocals by the ghost of the late movie star and brother to the current greatest American actor Joaquin – River Phoenix. While both albums are masterpieces in differing ways, channeling Frusciante's enthusiasm for Beefheart, Zappa, Syd Barrett, and other weirdo troubadours, it is only Niandra that is still reissued and available for purchase. Frusciante has let Smile fall into obscurity – perhaps it is just too painful for him to listen to. Hail Frusciante.

Here's your daily look at 'Today in Rock History' featuring: The WWE's Billion-Dollar Princess and the boss' daughter, Stephanie McMahon is 43. Mean Joe Greene is 73. Jim Henson was born on this day in 1936. Today in 1988, James Brown led police on a high-speed chase through Georgia and South Carolina while high on PCP. In 1991, Dr. Seuss died of cancer at 87. Today in 1991 two iconic albums were released that forever changed Rock & Roll. Nirvana released "Nevermind"and the Red Hot Chili Peppers released their fifth album "Blood Sugar Sex Magick".
In 1991, California funk-rockers Red Hot Chili Peppers released their Warner Bros debut record Blood Sugar Sex Magick to massive commercial and critical acclaim. Though the band flourished, this newfound success took a toll on guitarist John Frusciante, who was uncomfortable with the extra attention, and quit the band mid-tour in a depression.Determined to continue onward, the Chili Peppers recruited Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro to record their next record, but amidst singer Anthony Kiedis' relapse into drug addiction, and Navarro's own awkwardly-fitting presence in the group, the resulting album was a decidedly darker and hazier effort. One Hot Minute was released in 1995 to critical confusion, lesser commercial success, and a series of unfortunate events that nearly broke the band up.On this episode of Jukebox Zeroes, Lilz & Patrick team up with Cat Verlicco (The Knock-Ups/Salem Wolves/The Dick Pics) to decide for themselves whether One Hot Minute was an underrated gem, or a disastrous misstep for the Peppers.Local Music Feature: "Centipede" by Salem Wolves
