This is the first album after Hillel's death. To replace Hillel, the RHCP found a guitarist named John Fruciante. Chad Smith replaced Jack Irons on drums, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers managed to stay together. 2 of the songs on this album became hits as this album reached 52 on the Billboard Charts. To date this album has sold 2 million copies worldwide and went Platnum in the US. This was the Chili Peppers' most successful album on EMI. One thing that makes this album distinctly different from the first 3 is Fruciante's guitar playing. The Chili Peppers were becomming more and more famous, but they still hadn't had their breakthrough album.
