Red Hot Chili Peppers

On October 21, 1995, when the Red Hot Chili Peppers lit up the Forum di Assago in Milan with their electrifying performance of "Suck My Kiss," they were riding high on the momentum of their acclaimed album *One Hot Minute*. Released just a month earlier, in September '95, this album marked a distinct chapter in the band’s journey, following the departure of guitarist John Frusciante. It's notable for its blend of funk rock and more experimental sounds, showcasing the group’s ability to evolve while retaining their unique essence. The live setting during this recording highlights their infectious energy, and the audience's enthusiasm was palpable—something that reflects the band's synergy during this tumultuous period. Plus, it was a time when they were really starting to gain massive international recognition, paving the way for their legendary status in rock history. It’s fascinating to think how this live performance encapsulated a pivotal moment in their ever-changing story, isn't it?
