Californication — 1999

A melodic, reflective comeback after years of turmoil, their most song-focused record. Warm and massive. A late-90s staple. A later chapter in Red Hot Chili Peppers's catalogue, and still one of the best.

On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
