From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Smile From the Streets You Hold is a solo album by John Frusciante, the guitarist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers from 1988 to 1992. It was released in 1997 on Birdman Records, while Frusciante was addicted to drugs.
Most of Smile From the Streets You Hold was recorded when John was still with the Chili Peppers, with the exception of a few songs that were recorded after he left the band. Those songs include "Enter an Uh" and "Nigger Song".
Frusciante had Smile From the Streets You Hold and his first solo album, Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-shirt, removed from record stores in 1998 (after he rejoined the Chili Peppers]]), because he felt uncomfortable with it being available to the public. It is no longer published.
