In 2006, the Red Hot Chili Peppers released their last great album, Stadium Arcadium. Problem was, it was a double album. Had they kept it down to the best dozen cuts, it would have been great. As a double, it was merely very good.

Prince did something similar. Emancipation was a great double album, maybe up there near Sign O’ the Times. Problem was, there were three discs. Too much filler; not enough meat.

Anyway, “Dani California” is not one of the songs RHCP should have cut to make SA a great album.

    You know, I was just thinking a couple weeks ago that it wasn’t as good as it could have been, but I couldn’t put my finger on what it was. Thanks for nailing it!

    Of course, this begs the question: what 12 songs should have formed SA? Ok, you already mentioned one, so what are the other 11?
