Red Hot Chili Peppers
The Red Hot Chili Peppers were formed in Los Angeles by Kiedis, Flea, guitarist Hillel Slovak and drummer Jack Irons. Because of commitments to other bands, Slovak and Irons did not play on the band's 1984 self-titled debut album, which instead featured guitarist Jack Sherman and drummer Cliff Martinez. Slovak rejoined for their second album, "Freaky Styley" (1985), and Irons for their third, "The Uplift Mofo Party Plan" (1987). Slovak died of a drug overdose on June 25, 1988; Irons, devastated, left the band.
