    Does anyone else like his solo stuff? I have the album "Shadows Collide With People" and I have to say I really enjoy it. Interesting guy. Any thoughts or opinions?

    interesting to say the least, some pretty fucked up stuff about him in the keidis autobiography

    Personally I cannot stand his music. Either solo or in a group.

    What a strange and beautiful man.

    I love how he plays. You can hear all his life story and his experiences through his feel and expression.

    I think his solo stuff is so much better than the chilis ever were,.

    I think his solo stuff is amazing. every album is totally different. One of my favourite artists. To Record Only Water For Ten Days is my favourite

    I have all his solo stuff. I really like most of it. Check out the DC ep. Its only 4 tracks but its great. He released 6 albums in 6 months in 2004 and a lot of it is brilliant. He is releasing some new stuff soon I think.

    Haven't listened to all of his stuff, but absolutely loved "Murderers" off that. Heard it on an independent short film and was mesmerised.

    Yeah, really like his solo stuff, it doesn't always work but you always get the impression that he's revealing something very personal. He's a very interesting guy and it definitely comes across in his music. Carvel is probably my favorite song, evar.

    The Chilis stuff (namely One Hot Minute) from when he was on near-death heroin sabbatical, camped indoors in the Hollywood Hills, is very obviously missing something.

    Johnny Depp's film of his house during that period is now on youtube: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Qx7oJ7-Xjpg

    Awh, he's great. Sound is very raw and unpolished. Just yummy. Emotional. beautiful, pure.... *sigh* I love "Falling", that has no vocals. Very Californicationey. Also love "Murderers" and "Dying Song". He can't sing very well, so his voice is an acquired taste, what with all the really low/ really high parts..

    Shadows collide with people is an exceptional album from an exceptional artist. Long live John Frusciante.
