THE UPLIFT MOFO PARTYPLAN (REMASTERED) (1987)
320 KBPS

1987's THE UPLIFT MOFO PARTY PLAN was the album in which the Red Hot Chili Peppers' sound came together. Producer Michael Beinhorn (who would later go on to produce such other alt-rock notables as Soundgarden and Hole) helped the Peppers incorporate more of a hard-rock approach to their already rich blend of funk and punk, with often explosive results. The songwriting is more focused this time around, while the playing is consistently energetic.
Though the album is strongon the whole, selected highlights include "Fight Like a Brave", "Funky Crime", "Me and My Friends", "Backwoods", "Behind the Sun", "No Chump Love Sucker", and the X-rated "SpecialSecret Song Inside". This would be the best (and sadly, final) album to feature the Kiedis/Flea/Slovak/Irons lineup--Slovak died from a drug overdose in 1988, and Irons exited soon after, turning up several years later as the drummer for Pearl Jam.
