John Frusciante Goes Acoustic

Reported by simple

John Frusciante, is offering both acoustic and demo versions of key tracks from his latest solo album, Shadows Collide With People. The songs will be made available exclusively as full-length audio streams on his website, www.johnfrusciante.com. Read below for a quote about the album from John.

“I’m releasing these versions because there was so much production on the record,” remarked Frusciante, whose Shadows Collide With People is his fourth solo album. “I thought it would be nice for some of the fans who prefer a more raw, stripped down sound. For the same reason I wanted to include the original demos. Some people actually prefer hearing things this way and I really pushed my little 8-track cassette to the limit. I figured I'd do a performance in my living room and put it on the internet so people could hear me doing these songs as if it were a live acoustic show.”
