Rocktails<br />

with Chez Rocker<br />

Did I hear right? John Frusciante, an American<br />

singer-songwriter and producer, is back with the Red<br />

Hot Chili Peppers! This will be his third stint with the<br />

band, spanning 3 decades and 5 albums with them.<br />

Also known as Trickfinger, Frusciante has had 12<br />

solo albums and has worked with the likes of Mars<br />

Volta, Josh Klighoffer and Joe Lally. He also produced<br />

albums with Wu Tang Clan and Duran Duran. When<br />

he talks about leaving the Chili Peppers, he explains<br />

that his reason for joining, to begin with, was because<br />

they treated the crowd like a part of the band.<br />

When success and fame came so quickly, he was<br />

overwhelmed; enough to almost not go on stage<br />

at a show in Japan, although he did say it would<br />

be his last show for a period of time with the band.<br />

According to Frusciante, he fell heavily into drug<br />

addiction and had to go to drug rehabilitation to get<br />

back to making his own music again.<br />

In 1999, he rejoined the Chili Peppers with their<br />

album “Californication”. They would record two more<br />

albums, by the way, and “Stadium Arcadium” (their<br />

9th studio album). In 2009, he left the band for a<br />

second time.<br />

Rolling Stone <strong>Magazine</strong> ranked John Frusciante 18th<br />

on their list of the top 100 guitarists. He is once again<br />

back with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and they are<br />

rumored to be working on a new album.<br />

He gave up drugs and alcohol, so I thought it would<br />

be relevant to create a “mocktail” for this issue:<br />

2 oz watermelon juice<br />

1 teaspoon lemon juice<br />

1 teaspoon sugar<br />

3 mint leaves, chopped<br />
