John Frusciante Lesson Under the Bridge
Blood Sugar Sex Magik - The band hooked up with legendary producer Rick Rubin to record their fifth album in a rented mansion in California - one which had once been owned by Harry Houdini, among others, and was allegedly where the Beatles experienced LSD for the first time - in which the band would record the album. During the recording, the band isolated itself from the outside world and, with the exception of drummer Chad Smith, the band lived in the house. During the whole duration of recording, while Anthony and Rick had made a few ventures into society, John and Flea remained shut-ins and consumed massive amounts of marijuana. The monastic recording conditions are well-documented in the Gavin Bowden film "Funky Monks" (1991). This was also the first album the band recorded on their current label, Warner, who had bought them out of their previous contract with EMI. Blood Sugar Sex Magik sold incredibly well, and was the band's breakthrough album, mostly due to the hits "Under the Bridge" and "Give It Away," and also to the expert production by Rick Rubin.
