Does anybody know the actual reasons he left the Chili Peppers?

    I think it was a conflict of styles...I seem to remember that from Behind the Music.

    Dave's a good guitarist i've always loved OHM, and i'm just getting in to the beauty that is Janes Addiction, i think another Chilis album with Dave on guitar would have been intresting to hear, but i guess we never will.

    Because he's not as hip to the groove as John Frusciante! And its the best move the Chili's made IMO.

    Amen. And i LOVE Dave for his work with Jane's ... but there is only one guitarist for the Peppers, and that is John ... he just rocks the funk groove like no other with them. A shame his vices took him away from the band in the first place, but I guess interesting to see OHM because of it.

    I hope you're tackling Jane's from the early days up, and not from Strays or Kettle Whistle backwards ... XXX (Jane's self titled\no title on XXX records) really is the place to start, IMHO!

    Strays would be a good place to end up ... if you even want to get there ... i prefer to ignore that album, though my friend is somehow convinced it is their best work by far. !?! ... he has a soft spot for production value though.

    Started with Ritual De Lo Habitual, i'm looking to get the S/T next, then Nothings Shocking, all though there is a copy of Kettle for £1.19 on amazon at the moment

    If KW is that cheap, i would pick it up.

    It IS a great disc, but it's just hard for an old fan to think of it much as an actual JA "album" ... almost everything on there (excepting So What! & My Cat's Name Is Maceo) is OLD material ... most of it having been officialy released before as bsides or on that silly Live & Rare disc ... yeah Slow Divers and Kettle Whistle were re-recorded, but that is about it ... I was dissapointed when i picked it up, only because i had like 90% of that stuff on other JA releases ... :(

    but if you're a new fan, it's probably worth it ... fuck it's worth it for Slow Divers, IMHO ... lol.

    I liked what Dave brought to the Chili Peppers, they really went in an interesting direction with One Hot Minute. But if he had stuck around we never would have got Californication, perhaps the singles were a bit overplayed but it was a great record.
    Which came first,
    the bad idea or me befallen by it?

    kind of always liked what i'd heard by them, i just never got round to buying anything, till recently i found an mp3 of them covering Sympathy for the Devil which blew me away, not long after bought Ritual, and i aint been able to stop listening, Three Days is fucking amazing cant believe i've been missing out on such brilliant music for so long:)

    Wasn't sure where to post this. There is a documentary about Dave Navarro called 'Mourning Son' that has just been released. Here's the trailer:
