Former Red Hot Chili Peppers producer Michael Beinhorn said in a new ‘Produce Like A Pro’ interview that he feels John Frusciante is the ‘secret weapon’ to the band being successful. Alternative Nation transcribed his comments.

“Yeah, it was this weird fusion. And they jammed well together and obviously that’s where the songs came from. You know, they definitely were more of a like, jam it out type band, create some sections and then we’ll put some kind of weird vocal on it later. You know, as opposed to what the band turned into when John [Frusciante] joined, because he was more of a composer.

And in many ways, he’s the secret weapon, I always felt, to them being successful. He was a really- and I imagine still is, a really strong composer. But Hillel [Slovak] is a whole different animal. Working with him was so much fun. Like I said, being in the studio with them, it was hysterical.”

Red Hot Chili Peppers have been attempting to reach out and reconnect with reclusive former guitarist John Frusciante since last year, with Flea being photographed with Frusciante for the first time in a decade at a boxing match at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Since then, Josh Klinghoffer has worked John Frusciante solo material in a live performance, and now the band had “Murders” by Frusciante played on louder speakers before their show started in Egypt a few days ago.

Asking Benjamin commented on YouTube, “John, I forever wait for your return.”

Alex Peseta commented, “Looks like RHCP send a signal to JF;) Man, stop doing sh…t and come back, cos we are doing sh.t without you also.”

Cesar V commented, “Imagine how many people knew the song. I love how the Red Hot don’t forget him. <3." Lawrence Reitan commented, "Remember what Throw away your television's outro said: Please don't you ever leave, please don't!" khalo0odz commented on Reddit, "Dude I freaked out when murderers started playing. It’s been my ringtone for years." DelusionalThomas66 commented on Reddit, "Do we even know if the band chose what songs to play pre show? Maybe the venue people did it?" elziv commented on Reddit, "Not 100% sure but it’s pretty common for bands to choose what is played before they go on stage." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkldwqZ7_7Y&feature=youtu.be
