All this talk has me motivated to edit Stadium Arcadium into what I think would be their best album. 14 is realistic for a typical chilis album track list.
Yep, I think I need to do this too! It is my favourite album of theirs but it would’ve made an absolute killer of a 14-16 track record.
I’m still working on it. Not easy at all. What are we doing, 14 or 16?
I have often thought of doing this myself, but every time I listen all the way through, I end up telling myself that it's so good the way it is, that I shouldn't mess with it
I’ve always thought about doing that as well. Been on a big RHCP kick since the new single dropped and actually made a condensed Stadium Arcadium playlist a few days ago but now I’m rethinking it lol. I found that some of the songs that definitely would’ve made the list years ago have been replaced with songs that I thought were just filler before. I’m gonna do some last minute editing and then I’ll share it.
Just curious what RCHP on vinyl is like? I've been looking to buy "By the Way" and looking to hear what you guys that own some of their vinyl think. Thanks!

My OG press of One Hot Minute sounds AMAZING!! The Stadium Arcadium repress sounds awesome too, so does the RSD red reissue of BSSM.

More recently they have done a very nice job if I remember correctly off the top of my head. Californication OG was tough on the ears, but it was recut I believe (CB?) and sounds lightyears better. I have an OG Stadium Arcadium and By The Way and I think they are both cut by KG and are fantastic. Their 2 most recent sound good as well.
That is good to hear! I just contacted my local record store and put in an order for By the Way, guy said it could be a while as it's hard to get RHCP records. Thanks for the reviews!

Every LP I have of theirs sounds great! Hoping this trend continues with the new LP.
Okay here’s my SA single album version. Really hurt to cut a couple of the songs but had to get down to 14 songs lol
1. Readymade 2. Snow 3. Make You Feel Better 4. Animal Bar 5. So Much I 6. Slow Cheetah 7. Tell Me Baby 8. Desecration Smile 9. Stadium Arcadium 10. Torture Me 11. If 12. Wet Sand 13. Hey 14. Turn It Again
That would be very difficult. I could probably get it down to a 2x 10 track double album.
There’s a cool old Guitar World interview that talks about Frusciantes approach on the album and how he’d run his guitar through all kinds of synths to create his effects.

Yea he put his all into this one for sure. I’m sure you’ve listened to the isolated guitar tracks on YouTube?

What an album. Mine looks nothing like that and that just shows how strong the album is , especially for a double. And I’ll put “A Million Miles of Water” up there with any of the tracks that made the album too

Nice. I see we both had Turn It Again for the last track, a solid closer for sure.

Strip My Mind and Especially in Michigan were the 2 hardest for me to cut to get it down to 14 tracks. Strip My Mind has such a cool vibe and all the guitar stuff going on in Especially in Michigan is fantastic.

The guitar tones in Michigan are what gets it on my list for sure.

Nice! Looks like I’m the only one who’s not into Desecration smile and readymade! Love to see the variety
How could you not like Desecration Smile?! It's up there as one of my favourites of all their songs!
But to be fair I can relate, in that, I can't stand Snow, to the point I skip it every single time, that chorus just grates on me!
Ha! I honestly don’t skip any of the songs I excluded from my list. I can’t explain it. There’s something about the chorus that I just don’t can’t into it.
