As Flea neared his 60th birthday, he realized if he did not pick up the trumpet again, he probably never would. So he resolved to practice every day for two years—in the midst of a stadium tour with Red Hot Chili Peppers, with a wife and newborn at home. At the end of those two years, he would make an album, regardless of where his knowledge or talents ended up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUntil\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eHonora\u003c\/em\u003e, Flea had never been scared of making music before. He worried that the all-star band he had assembled would think he was \"a non-playing motherf*cker, charlatan, rock poseur or fan.\" But, he says, \"It turns out they were all the most genuinely supportive people, moving me deeply and daily with their generous spirits…Sitting in a room and playing the music with them made me feel like I was on drugs. I was buzzing, tripping and floating around the studio. I love them, they truly gave of themselves. I bow all the way down.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca name=\"SS\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndie Exclusive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Sides of Music\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEtched 4th Side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"musicians\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMusicians\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFlea\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003elead vocals, bass, trumpet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNathaniel Walcott\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003etrumpet, keyboards\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eJosh Johnson\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003esaxophone, backing vocals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRicky Washington\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ealto flute\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVikram Devasthali\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003etrombone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eJeff Parker\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eguitar, backing vocals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAnna Butterss\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edouble bass, backing vocals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDeantoni Parks\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edrums, backing vocals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMauro Refosco\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003epercussion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eThom Yorke\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003elead vocals, piano, synthesizer on \"Traffic Lights\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNick Cave\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003elead vocals on \"Wichita Lineman\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChris Warren\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebacking vocals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGolden Wingship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Plea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraffic Lights feat.
