I love getting new music or finishing off bands disographies but it's all too easy to forget albums that you already have. In this thread you have to dig out an album that you haven't heard for at least a year and write a review (large or small). Does the album hold up? Have your tastes moved on?

I am listening to this for the first time in probably 3 or 4 years:

Considering it was produced by George Clinton I find the production lacking a rawness that early RHCP was about. However the cover of 'If You Want Me To Stay' and the horn work dotted throughout especially on 'The Brother's Cup' still sound good.

Not their best album by any means and there is some filler but it's so easy to forget how damn funky RHCP could be!

6.5/10
