The bad news was announced by the band members themselves. "We wish Jack Sherman a safe trip to the afterlife, because he has passed away," the group tweeted overnight from Friday to Saturday. The one who had been the guitarist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers' debut album died at the age of 64.
"Jack played on our first album as well as on our first tour of the United States," added the musicians, paying tribute to this "unique guy". "We thank him for everything, the good, the bad and the rest." The group led by Anthony Kiedis did not specify the causes of the death of its ex-guitarist.
An ephemeral collaboration
Jack Sherman had replaced guitarist Hillel Slovak for the group's first album (1984), The Red Hot Chili Peppers , and collaborated on the second, Freaky Styley (1985), according to the Deadline news site . But Slovak then resumed his place within the group.
When members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers were inducted into the prestigious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012, Jack Sherman, despite his collaborations, was not included. He told Billboard at the time that he felt "dishonored."
