John Frusciante
John Frusciante is a top 3 guitarist of all time and it's not even close. Sorry Hillel Slovak, but you died for a good cause.

RHCP does have good songs. 90% of songs on BSSM, By the Way, and Stadium Arcadium are great. Then their earlier material without Frusciante is decent but not as good as the albums with him. Knock Me Down is a good song too.

He has a knack for bending, palm mute, strumming, pull offs/hammer ons with feeling that a few have/synchronize.

He pretty much carried rhcp to being a good band from a funk/punk mess that were everywhere still are in LA.

Thanks. Listened to it twice. its really nice. dude def has a nice feel. the tone is meh to me. I'll have to dig into more live stuff ...and there is no best, only favorites but I fail to see how peter is the "best" especially in comparison to someone like Duane. That being said, they were both playing the same clubs and venues at the same, they must have crossed paths at some point. what a time to be alive seeing shows lol.

He’s top 5 in my book. He helped push RCHP in a direction that transformed them from niche funk punk to mainstream top 40 rock band and has written more iconic Melodie’s that most and he leaves the band for a decade every other decade. He’ll probably leave again, but I hope they do one more album first. And yeah, his solo stuff is a whole other realm well worth exploring, I wish he would do another guitar based solo album at some point.
