In late 1988, just before the release of their widely praised album "Mother's Milk," the Red Hot Chili Peppers delivered an electric performance at the Opera House, highlighting their growing influence in the alternative rock scene. This live recording of "True Men Don't Kill Coyotes" showcases their eclectic sound—a vibrant blend of funk, punk, and rock that was becoming their trademark. Released in August 1989, "Mother's Milk" marked a significant turning point for the band, featuring their first major radio hit, "Higher Ground," a Stevie Wonder cover that rocketed them into the mainstream. Interestingly, this performance reflects a moment of evolution for the band, as they were gaining traction after the tragic loss of guitarist Hillel Slovak and just before welcoming new guitarist John Frusciante. This critical time in their career positioned them for even greater success, creating a foundation that would resonate in the rock genre for decades to come.
