The most formidable of contemporary rock groups, the Red Hot Chili Peppers don t just defy categorisation, they appear to invent their own with every new release - and often do likewise within the confines of a live performance. Indeed, the group s startling eclecticism is only surpassed by their lofty talents and astonishing musical catalogue.
This
3 x CD set features a selection of rare FM radio broadcasts recorded
between the end of the 1980s and the middle of the 1990s, when for many
the band were at their absolute pinnacle of achievement. Kicking off
with a show recorded at the famous Ahoy venue in Rotterdam in 1995, the
collection continues in reverse order with a recording from the equally
familiar Pat O Brien Pavilion in Del Mar, California in 91. Last up
comes a terrific performance from the Chilis given in Kawasaki, Japan in
1990, which concludes an extraordinary selection of live performances
that provide evidence if such were ever required of the Red Hot Chili
Peppers peerless position as the finest live musical act working today.
