Freaky Styley was the RHCP album that bridged rock and funk for me. It's produced by George Clinton (he's even lead vox on a track). Now I salivate over Parliament/Funkadelic and my friends think I'm crazy.

What? They're still funky, always have been.

They definately have phases. Like By the way was clearly more 50s , Beatles and do wop insipired than funk. Klinghoffer were definately less funky overall too, except dark necessities did have a few solid tracks.

Yes I see what you're saying, but the bass on all of their albums still has slap and funk to it. I guess a lot of it is what the other musicians are doing and how Keidis sings the song. Go Robot is funky as heck. I love that song.

Edited because Gboard is getting stupid all the time lately

Agree. So is Sick Love. Same with their recent albums, which are much more funky than even Dark Necessities.
