Red Hot Chili Peppers Interview Archive
We've raided the Radio 1 vaults and below you can listen to some archive Chili interviews. We'll be adding more as the big day approaches so keep checking back.
Chad 1995
Chad was interviewed by Jo Whiley in September 1995.
Chad has an important announcement...
"I'm a huge fan of Take That - I heard that Robbie left? This is kind of an exclusive for Radio 1 - I'm going leave the Chili Peppers and I'm going to be collaborating with Robbie- Bob to me - cos it's Bob to his close friends..."
Kiedis 1994
Anthony Kiedis was interviewed way back in January 1994 on The Rock Show.
Anthony on their lack of popularity in the UK (!)...
"It's happened with the housewives of England but it hasn't really hit the kids yet. The housewives, the nannies, the butlers - they're all very enthusiastic about the Chili Peppers."
Flea 2002
Flea was interviewed by Steve Lamacq in July 2002.
Flea on those crazy Pepper sounds...
"I've actually played trumpet on a few Chili's albums. On one song I play the flugelhorn and on another song I play the trumpet... It's great to experiment with different instrumentation and layer different things on top of the core of what we're doing."
Kiedis 2002
Anthony was interviewed by Steve Lamacq in July 2002.
Anthony on their "new" album 'By The Way'...
"I've actually wept a number of times during the recording, the writing, the listening back to this music - clearly a good sign to find yourself listening to music and weeping."
Chad has an important announcement...
