An update on the Frusciante/Gahan collaboration

(Thanks to Tatiana, un bacione!)

In a review titled The Wrath Of Gahan, in Big Shot Magazine, there’s a very interesting paragraph describing how John and Dave met and how the collaboration simply came by itself:

Produced with Andrew Phillpott and Christian Eigner—two mainstays in Depeche Mode’s touring band—in Gahan’s tiny downtown studio, one of the standout tracks is “Saw Something,” which features dazzling guitar work from Red Hot Chilli Peppers’ John Frusciante. Gahan met Frusciante a while ago at a charity gig and the two became fast friends. It turns out that Frusciante is a huge Depeche Mode fan and can play every song on guitar. When Gahan needed a guitar solo, he sent the parts to Frusciante who “went all the way out there.”

The full review can be found here.

As said earlier, you can buy the song here.

In case you ever missed the story of the charity event where the two musicians met, it’s here, with links to a video clip, and there are also a couple of pics.
