Red Hot Chili Peppers Live Performance of By The Way in Jacksonville
In late 2016, when the Red Hot Chili Peppers delivered a high-energy performance in Jacksonville, they were just months removed from releasing their eleventh studio album, "The Getaway." Dropped in June of that year, this album marked a notable evolution in their sound, as it leaned more towards funk-rock with elements of electronic music, showcasing producer Danger Mouse’s influence. What's fascinating about this live recording is how the band, renowned for their dynamic and spontaneous performances, infused tracks from "The Getaway" with an invigorating live energy, bringing a fresh twist to new favorites like "Go Robot." This era in the band's career also highlighted their enduring chemistry and ability to captivate audiences, while reflecting their journey through the highs and lows of fame. It’s a reminder of how their roots in funk and rock continue to resonate, even years into their storied legacy.
