context_page_description: The American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers have recorded hundreds of songs over their long career. Formed in 1983 by vocalist Anthony Kiedis, bassist Flea, guitarist Hillel Slovak, and drummer Jack Irons, the group recorded their self-titled debut album the following year with producer Andy Gill. Recorded instead with guitarist Jack Sherman and drummer Cliff Martinez, the album introduced the band's funk metal style and served as an introduction to the band's rap rock-roots. Slovak returned to the band for the George Clinton-produced Freaky Styley. Their pure funk album, its songs are noticeably influenced by Clinton and Slovak, who's guitar playing helped shape the group as a cohesive unit. The Uplift Mofo Party Plan was produced by Michael Beinhorn and featured all four founding members. It features the band's signature funk rock style, with reggae and heavy metal influences. Following Slovak's death from a drug overdose in 1988, Irons left the band, forcing Kiedis and Flea to regroup with guitarist John Frusciante and drummer Chad Smith for their next album, Mother's Milk.
