Dr.Know of the Bad Brains *produced* the "funky" Token Entry (titled WEIGHT OF THE WORLD, if I remember correctly) though. And it should be noted that the Bad Brains were certainly no small influence on the RHCP themselves.

band so much as they ignited the NYC scene (I doubt the bands that follwed them would've sounded like they did if not for the Bad Brains). They again, they also inspired Token Entry to go "funky," which was a Grand Canyon-sized misstep.
(not that this point matters too much anyways but) in the late 80's I was friends w a few of the guys in token entry- sadly enough when red hot chili peppers "mothers milk" came out they were listening to it quite a bit-  the bass player at the time would sit around and try to learn the funk bass lines- seemed that spurned their "funky" cross over which was awful- 
 I caught the last bad brains show at cbgb's at one of those last shows. I havent seen them in some time- HR is half out of his mind...
