TASTE THE PAIN

Recorded during: Taste the Pain sessions

Performers: Anthony Kiedis (vocals), Flea (bass and trumpet), John Frusciante (guitar), Phillip Fisher (drums), Dave Coleman (cello).
Live performances.

NOTES:

John’s earliest recorded appearance with the band. This track features Phillip “Fish” Fisher of Fishbone on drums, as it was recorded before Chad joined, but after D.H. Peligro had been fired. Peligro still retains a writing credit on the track.

Released initially (in an extended version) on the soundtrack to “Say Anything…”, which starred Ione Skye, Anthony’s girlfriend at the time.
