Red Hot Chili Peppers – Fight Like A Brave (Pinkpop Festival 1988)

Included on the 1987 album “The Uplift Mofo Party Plan.” A four-piece rock band from Los Angeles formed in 1983.

As you listen to the vocals shouting in a rap style over a funky melody built on a slightly monotonous mid-tempo rhythm and noisy, hard-edged guitar sound, you’ll feel like striding along under the sun.

Me And My Friends

A thrilling funk-rock piece by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, bursting with raw early energy.

It’s included on their third album, The Uplift Mofo Party Plan, released in September 1987—a miraculous record that, in the band’s history, was the first and only one made by all four original members together.

The sound kicks off with Flea’s fiercely undulating bass line, which is just incredibly cool, and the lyrics convey a straightforward devotion to their friends.

It’s also said that this song is about their friendship with guitarist Hillel Slovak, who passed away the following year, and knowing that background makes the depth of their bond all the more moving.

It resonates even more deeply when you listen to it as you reflect on the days you spent with irreplaceable friends.

Parallel UniverseRed Hot Chili Peppers24rank/position

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Parallel Universe – Live at Slane Castle

A four-piece rock band that was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012 and has sold over 80 million records worldwide, the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

This song is from their 7th album, Californication, and is known as a fan favorite that, despite not being released as a single, is the only non-single album track to be included on their greatest hits.

While much of the playing is simple and doubled with the guitar throughout, you have to consistently play in sixteenth notes, so it’s essential to keep your note articulation even.

Because it requires considerable right-hand stamina, practice a little every day and focus on achieving a stable performance.

Tell Me Baby

While the Red Hot Chili Peppers are often associated with a goofy, naked-onstage image, this track showcases vocalist Anthony’s beautiful melodic sensibilities.

The music video features a prank in which the band themselves surprise hopeful audition participants, making it a song that inspires positivity toward one’s future life and dreams.
