The Uplift Mofo Party Plan


This is the third album by RHCP recorded on EMI. This album shows progression in the Chili Peppers as musicians, but it is also the first and only album with all four of the original band members. This in itself is a big deal, because not long after the album Slovak died of a severe drug overdose. Anthony and Slovak both were heavy drug users at the time, but Slovak eventually took it too far which caused extreme feelings of mourning and sadness for years after this album. This album had a few notable singles on it, including "Fight Like A Brave", "Me and My Friends", and "Behind the Sun" It reached #148 on the billboard's top 200, which was the first Chili Peppers album to do so.
