Other guitarists also mentioned him. Dave Navarro of Jane's Addiction said that he learned guitar by listening to the albums McGeoch recorded with Siouxsie and the Banshees. John Frusciante of Red Hot Chili Peppers named McGeoch in his primary influences: "is such a guitarist I aspire to be. He has a new brilliant idea for each song. I usually play on the stuff he does on Magazine's albums and Siouxsie & the Banshees's like "Juju"". Mark Arm of Mudhoney "loved [McGeoch's work with Magazine and Siouxsie And The Banshees".
