The 1989 Red Hot Chili Peppers studio album “Mother’s Milk” contains raucous cover versions of Stevie Wonder’s “Higher Ground” and Jimi Hendrix’s “Fire.” The real cover magic happens on the 2003 CD “Definitive Remaster,” though, which includes several bonus tracks including kickass live versions of Hendrix’s “Castles Made of Sand” and “Crosstown Traffic” recorded in Cleveland in 1989.
