In 1991, The Red Hot Chilli Peppers retreated to a mansion with Rick Rubin at the controls and forever changed the direction of their funky spaceship. Suddenly, actual singing, meaningful lyrics and (whisper it) ballads were on the table. Some fans felt cheated: what were their funky heroes playing at? But it mattered little, because the rest of the world finally jumped on board.  Is it a classic? Is it too long? Is it funky enough, or too funky? Join us as we unravel the heady stew that is Blood Sugar Sex Magic. <a rel="payment" href="http://mccartneyingoal.com">Support the show</a>Twitter - https://twitter.com/mccartneyin Website - https://mccartneyingoal.com/

MiG SHORTS: Is Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band a 'concept album'?

McCartney In Goal is a monthly podcast that debates and dissects the greatest albums of popular rock music. Hosted by David Hughes, and fellow judges, Brett and Steve Sumner, each episode&nbsp; the McCartney In Goal team pick a rock or pop music album that they love and put the songs through an imaginary competitive style-knock out format to find the best song on the album. At times, they may be uninformed, biased and they are often a bit unruly. Come and listen in on the fun - and if you enjoy it, TELL A FRIEND!!!
