4.0 out of 5 stars So, what if it IS black & white?!!, 11 Feb 2004
The lack of colour turns what is, to be absolutely honest, a pretty average "fan-zine" type of presentation into something a bit more arty. Black & white filming makes the content more immediate and convincing - although this is ostensibly a fly-on-the-wall job, the band are obviously only too aware of the camera, even when not talking directly to it. The most interesting and poignant part of it, for me, is to see the beginnings of the disintegration of John Frusciante. So much younger than the others, and obviously living on his nerves, his subsequent decline into extreme drug addiction is only too understandable. However, he does talk a lot of pretentious b******t from time to time - notably saying that it is his responsibility as guitarist to see that Anthony gets laid every night! What is THAT all about?!!
Highlights are really watching the genesis of that superb album, especially all the percussion on Breaking the Girl - they knock ten bells out of drums, drainpipes, boxes and furniture - it's amazing. I also enjoyed the recording of "They're red hot" out in the garden. Now, when I listen to the track I wind up the volume, and yes - you can hear the cicadas and the traffic going past! The photographing of the band for the artist to do the cover drawings is cool, and just the general atmosphere of concentrated creativity is terrific.
Definitely a must for fans of the band, and in particular of Blood Sugar Sex Magic (and who isn't?!)

4.0 out of 5 stars Good video, shame about the colour, 26 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This is a documentary about the recording of 1991's 'Blood Sugar Sex Magik', which unknown at the time would spawn their best known songs. The video shows all aspects of the recording, from Flea and John's shaving habits, to the basis of the songs. Oh and there is also some shots of the songs being recorded, of which some are rare or B-sides. Having said all this, the only downside is that the whole thing is shot in Black and white, and tends to slow down into the last section. Other than that, it is a must for anyone who owns BSSM, and calls themself a fan!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Inspirational must see DVD, 13 Mar 2002
This a an amazing DVD and gives you more than just a catalogue of songs and interviews. The video has great depths and really gets out the true views and ideas of the band. The video gives you an insight to how they live and is a must see for all music fans, not just fans of the chili's
