I'll get to the rest of the songs soon, but for now I'm listening to Here Ever After on repeat.

Here Ever After, Aquatic Mouth Dance, Poster Child, These Are the Ways, Bastards of Light, One Way Traffic, and The Heavy Wing are what I am most drawn to. If that was the album it would have been a great album.

It’s Only Natural / She’s a Lover / Whatcu Thinkin’ / White Braids / Let ‘em Cry are all in a similar wheelhouse of laidback mid-tempo funk with some killer musicianship. No love for these ones?
I like them but not as much as the ones I mentioned.
Really, the only song I disliked was Not the One. Everything else I enjoyed, but those 7 I mentioned sat in the elite spot for me.

Will Frusciante refuse to play Klinghoffer-era songs, I wonder
I heard somewhere that he refused to play songs from the Navarro era

It does sound good.
If only they could go back and do this for Californication, too.

I haven't gotten a chance to get more than 5 songs into this yet, and I'm not a huge RHCP nor have I paid attention beyond By The Way, but I like what I hear so far. It just feels right.

I like having four sides to the LP because it makes things more digestible, and those songs I’ve cut from the digital version will still get the occasionally showcase on my turntable.
Black Summer gained a lot to me, and that live performance was really cool.

I can look past that accent. I liked it from the get go. Kind of a moody way to open the album.

Halfway trough Anthony´s chat with Zane Lowe.
Very interesting so far, they chat a lot about the band dynamics with John.
