A pic from the Dani California video shoot and song preview
(thanks to failurebound from OHG forums) According to Videostatic.com, this is a photo of RHCP at the set for their upcoming Dani California video, directed by Tony Kaye (in the middle). Can you guys spot John? I am guessing that the news posted on the same site earlier can express this: Red Hot Chili Peppers will return this spring with the double album Stadium Arcadium, their first release of new material in nearly four years. Commercial/feature film director Tony Kaye has been tapped to direct a clip for first single “Dani California,” which will nod to the history of rock ‘n’ roll from the early ’50s through the present day.…

Hear a minute and a half of “Nights In White Satin”
You can do it here. Thanks to L.A. Fender for the information:) In case you forgot what it’s all about, it’s the song on which Glenn Hughes worked on with John and Chad. Apart from playing guitar on this song (the solo is cool and, well, you can just recognise John’s style), John also sings the harmony vocals. Enjoy!

John as a guest on TMV’s album
(Thanks to Rania for showing me the link, taken from drownedinsound.com) The album [ Frances The Mute, by The Mars Volta] was recorded all over the place, from Byron Bay to New York City. Yet despite the disparate surroundings it was recorded in, Frances The Mute sounds utterly coherent and fully realised. Yes, it’s essentially one, long song drawn out over some six tracks, many of which are then divided into different parts again. Actually, it’s all a little Yes, isn’t it? For those that care about such things, it features guest appearances from Larry Harlow on piano and Flea on trumpet, as well as fellow Chili John Frusciante on…
