I really like it on Californication. And By The Way for that matter.
You know, I think By The Way is better than people give it credit for. Listening to it now. It grows on me with each listen. And listening to it with some good headphones for once I think I might have been too harsh when I said this album is a waste of Flea and Frooshes talent. Its just a bit more low key but theres some solid riffs and basslines to be heard.
Stadium Arcadium is still a huge disappointment though.

By the Way is excellent IMO and very underrated, but maybe nostalgia is playing a part here. I still can't help but be a bit disappointed with Stadium Arcadium - it feels contrived to me (I know I've said this many times before).
There's nothing wrong with music being poppy, but when it feels contrived, it sounds tedious/weary.

I think Cali's production has too much treble.
