Product Description

Long out of print in the U.S.! Out In L.A. is a virtual alternate audio history of the band, focusing on non-album tracks and remixed and alternate versions of tracks not normally included on RHCP compilations. For starters, six of the songs are unavailable on any of their albums in any form ('Blues For Meister', 'You Always Sing The Same', 'Stranded', 'Flea Fly', 'What It Is' and the seasonal favorite 'Deck The Halls'). Also featured are remixes of 'Higher Ground', 'Hollywood Africa', 'If You Want Me To Stay' and 'Behind The Sun', plus live versions of 'Castles Made Of Sand', 'Special Secret Song Inside', and 'F.U.'. This CD even contains demo versions of 'Get Up And Jump', 'Out In LA' and 'Police Helicopter' amongst others! A treasure trove of RHCP gems at your fingertips! EMI.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm glad I finally found this!, December 8, 2001

By	"rockindaveapotamus" (Cleveland, OH United States) - See all my reviews

I looked for this CD forever, some of the best recordings of the peppers songs. Essential if you're a big fan (which I am) I finally found it at a CD warehouse, still my greatest moment. I listen to it constantly. Not a good CD for beginners, but for the die-hard fan, a must have!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Out In L.A., September 1, 2002

A Kid's Review

This album was very difficult to find, but well worth the effort and money. While I don't particularly enjoy the remixes, and Behind The Sun isn't noticably different than the original from Mother's Milk (I think), the other songs and demos are very interesting. This CD is probably not for the mainstream listener because of the demo quality and funny, but cheap songs Stranded, Deck The Halls, and Flea Fly. "What It Is" is simply Flea playing and Anthony rapping lyrics combined from several of the demo songs, and it's also my favorite track on the album. "F.U." is rather funny and simple, and it's interesting to hear the demo tracks and how they sounded before they were put on album.
