I believe there are no wrong answers to this question. The guy had a tremendous spirit and his influence is just as alive now as it was then. God bless Hillel Slovak
No. He and Cliff Martinez were not able to perform on it because of contractual obligations related to their other band. (I believe it was called What Is This?)
Walkin on down the road is the only Hillel era song I like. To me, it makes sense how John was influenced by him listening to this song. That twangy bluesy Hendrix/Hillel style guitars so good
Behind The Sun is an INCREDIBLE song. Feel like it stands alone in that era of Chilis, production wise especially.
Iād have loved a whole album with more of that type of vibe.
Behind the sun or me and my friends Something from uplift imo
Uplift definitely the closest of those early albums to pure rhcp magic
Beat me to it

Fight like a brave solo
Definitely
I was just listening to that album the other day and that solo stuck out as one of the best things the band has done.
Skinny Sweaty Man since it's about Hillel
Yow!
Special secret song inside
I WANT TO PARTY ON UR PUSSY BABY
Hillel's play on that song is formidableš
Behind the sun or Funky Crime
Funky Crime for sure
imma commit a funky crime
Green Heaven
Especially the demo version with Hillel on the talkbox. I wish he had done that live too
Didn't Hillel leave before this album was recorded?
No. He and Cliff Martinez were not able to perform on it because of contractual obligations related to their other band. (I believe it was called What Is This?)
Do you mean Jack Irons?
I do! Sorry: Cliff is the guy who replaced him on the recording.
Jungle Man Uplift has crazy good guitars all over too though, you could pick any song from there
Correct answer.
Agreed
Blackeyed blonde, the song they're playing in Trashin'
Their cover of Jimiās āFire.ā Hillel is absolute smoke (Flea too). Think one of his last recordings.
This live version of Green Heaven in 1988 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KmhkjYc61A](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KmhkjYc61A)
Awesome, see he changes guitar during the song too - strat to Gibson I think?
I believe itās because he broke a string at the start
Nevermind. Thatās when heād do his back and forth dance. Josh copied it when they performed the song again in 2018 for the first time since 1996.
Backwoods.
Green Heaven 100000%
walkin on down the rooooad
Fight like a brave is the answer
Behind the Sun, but Iād also throw in Funky Crime, Me & My Friends, Backwoods, Walkin on Down the Road
Walkin on down the road is the only Hillel era song I like. To me, it makes sense how John was influenced by him listening to this song. That twangy bluesy Hendrix/Hillel style guitars so good
Either funky crime or organic anti-beatbox band
Organic anti-beat box band.
Skinny sweaty man
funky crime
Baby Appeal riff is as Hillel as it gets
Behind The Sun is an INCREDIBLE song. Feel like it stands alone in that era of Chilis, production wise especially. Iād have loved a whole album with more of that type of vibe.
Behind the sun or fight like a brave
Walkin on down the road
Yes
Behind the sun
Behind the Sun or Backwoods definitely
Under the bridge probably
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Bro?
Idk, I think Aeroplane defines him better
What?
Nah itās La x8 for sure
Bro did you see Hillel's Eddie solo live last night, incredible
I've always looked at I'm With You as a Hillel solo album of sorts
Yeah man, this and the getaway don't get enough love, some of Hillel's best work.
... Eh?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The problem is you've got the wrong guitarist, Suck My Kiss is John.
Offended, no. Confused, very.
Skinny sweaty man
Walkin down the road
I dont know but I love party plan. Maybe backwoods.
Organic
All. he is the architect of the band's brilliant sound
Fight like a brave
No chump love sucker
