NEWS: Josh Klinghoffer Says His Red Hot Chili Peppers Era Feels “Completely Banished” From the Band’s Live Shows

In a recent interview by Guitar World, Josh Klinghoffer shared his thoughts on how the Red Hot Chili Peppers have treated the albums from the era when he was in the band.

"I guess it’s particular to the way John views the band when he’s not in it, and it makes sense to me. They have enough music that they don’t need to look to some of the other records. But for anyone who connected with those albums, like One Hot Minute [with Dave Navarro], or the two [I’m With You and The Getaway] that I made with them, yeah… I can only imagine that it’s a little weird for me to be completely banished from the catalog and the live performance." says Josh

Over the years, the band has explained why songs from One Hot Minute (1995) are rarely performed live, with John Frusciante once describing the album as “forced” and driven by “business” reasons. However, since John’s return, the band has never openly addressed the albums recorded with Klinghoffer.

Josh, who was RHCP’s guitarist from 2009 to 2019, recorded the albums I’m with You (2011) and The Getaway (2016), as well as the I’m Beside You (2013) collection of b-sides. None of those songs were played during the band’s most recent tour.

What do you think about it?
