I remember Snow being a good song. Must say I can't remember more than half the songs here

I agree that you could trim the fat and make a pretty great record. However, I still really like a lot of the tracks here. This album makes my top 100 favorites based off of its influence on me. I listened to this all the time and played the drums along with a bunch of the tracks again and again. Additionally, when I’m feeling like returning to the Peppers, it’s usually Blood Sugar or this one.

ditto - except bass

Readymade is super fun on the bass, and I can only imagine a trip to play on the drums on how the 1 and 3 switch... small little thing but genius.

If they are gonna give you the funk, are you gonna take it?

Yep, Readymade is a definite drum highlight on the record. It’s a cool part that creates some unique tension with how it accompanied the riff and releases that tension beautifully in the chorus. Chad Smith doesn’t often truly get his due.
