This is a comprehensive listing of official releases by John Frusciante, who is best known as the guitarist of the alternative rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers. As of May 2007, he has released nine solo albums, three EPs, as well as two albums with collaborators Joe Lally and Josh Klinghoffer under the name Ataxia. Frusciante left the Chili Peppers in 1992 after being unable to cope with the huge success of Blood Sugar Sex Magik.[1] He released his first solo album Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt, in 1994 on American Recordings. His second record, Smile From the Streets You Hold, was released primarily for drug money in 1997 and later taken off the market at his request in 1999. After returning to the Red Hot Chili Peppers in 1998, Frusciante recorded Californication with the band and subsequently released his third solo album in February 2001 on Warner Music Group.
Red Hot Chili Peppers released By the Way in 2002. Following the album's tour, Frusciante released Shadows Collide with People in 2004; it became his first solo album to influence a music chart.[2] In 2004, Frusciante released a series of six records in six months, all signed to Record Collection. Each album also included collaborations with Josh Klinghoffer.[3] In 2006 the Red Hot Chili Peppers released a 28-track double album, Stadium Arcadium.
