It has been called a flop, a letdown, and a failed album... Pretty much erased from the pages of music history, Red Hot Chili Pepper’s 6th studio album, the 90s classic, One Hot Minute has become a ghost record. It has been overshadowed by the massive success of its predecessor Blood Sugar Sex Magik and its follow-up Californication. But climbing to #4 on the Billboard Album Chart and selling over 2 million US units, and 4 million worldwide and producing 3 Top Ten hits including the #1 Hit My Friends is far from a letdown. Anthony Kiedis, Flea, Chad Smith and new guitarist Dave Navarro were going with the flow that took the band through a harrowing experience making the record including Anthony’s relapse. … A 4X platinum album? Most artist would die for that.. But, what happened? How did one of the most anticipated albums of its day become a lost chapter in this band’s history? well it all starts with a key member quitting and then later coming back.... John Frusciante is the key . Get the story next.

In February 1992 the Red Hot Chili Peppers made what lead singer Anthony Kiedis considered to be a disastrous appearance on Saturday Night Live. And much of that was thanks to guitarist John Frusciante, who at the time, was in a dark and dangerous place. Disillusioned by the band’s popularity and steeped in heroin abuse, he began isolating himself from his bandmates. Well, that night, Kiedis was already apprehensive because ‘Under the Bridge’ as their second number. The song was a challenge for him to sing. And he was dependent on John for his cue. But John was in a sour mood. During dress rehearsal, he played Under the Bridge in a different key, out of tune, and in a different timing... basically reinventing the song. Afterward Kiedis tried to hash things out with John, but he wasn’t interested in talking. The show’s first number was ‘Stone Cold Bush’, which went well enough until the end of the song. Kiedis, doing what he does, burst into a fit of wild stage antics. And he kicked John Frusciante in the process. Whether or not it was intentional, John wasn’t happy about it. When the Peppers returned onstage for ‘Under the Bridge’, Frusciante may as well have been on another planet. He started playing a version of the song Anthony had never heard before. Live, in front of millions of people, Kiedis was left scrambling for the right key. But the ad-libbing didn’t end there. Instead of singing his backing vocals, John simply screamed at the top of his lungs. Some fans saw John’s deviations as a creative and beautiful take on the song. But Anthony felt like he had been stabbed in the back and hung out to dry in front of America.

In the early 1990s, other alternative rock acts suc...
