Jack Sherman, who was the guitarist on the first Red Hot Chili Peppers album and contributed to the group’s second, died at 64. No cause of death has been determined.
Jack had replaced guitarist Hillel Slovak on the 1983 debut and was a cowriter on its follow-up, Freaky Styley, released in 1985. However, he was replaced by a returning Hillel before the album came out.
Jack also contributed to the albums Mother’s Milk and The Abbey Road EP.
The RHCP family are all saddened by his passing.
