Some of the Rock radio classics provided by the Red Hot Chili Peppers came via “By The Way”…an album released 21 years ago this week.
It was their 2nd album after the long awaited return of guitarist, John Fruciante
While Frusciante was largely credited as leading the creative force on the disc, the guitarist viewed it more as a collaborative effort, stating, “I know what Anthony [Kiedis] and Chad [Smith] and Flea have said but I think of it more as a band effort. I do put a lot of energy into everything, sure, but I don’t underestimate that the real energy comes from the four of us. That’s number one over any of our individual efforts.”
