John Frusciante is back! And Rick Rubin was allowed to play again, now everything is getting better, or like it used to be. One wonders, of course, what the RHCP want to tell you after 39 years. But the message in a nutshell The title says: “Unlimited Love”, and her twelfth work takes her bad-boy attitude ad absurdum. They sound loving, harmonious and Beatlee-esque – the antennae, they say, are “attuned to the divine cosmos”, everyone is grateful.
The chorus of the wonderfully syncopated “The Great Apes” settles in catchy tune: “All my love and half my kisses/ Superstars don’t do the dishes,” poetically Kiedis, before Frusciante shows that he has the Gretsch or Fender-shaped heart the Peppers is, delicately strung (ha!), opulent in sound. He continues to play on Hendrix’s grave on “These Are The Ways”, “Veronica” juggling from a (feminine!) first person perspective with “She’s So Heavy”. Admittedly, at least five songs are superfluous, and someone in their mid-fifties should tell them that the eternal “girls”-singing comes across as crazy – are they talking about their daughters? But these are marginalia. (Warner)
