Curtains is an album by John Frusciante released February 1, 2005 by the label Record Collection. It was the last album of a six album series of solo efforts.
Curtains is mostly acoustic in contraposition to his previous album (with Josh Klinghoffer) 'A Sphere In The Heart Of Silence', which was mostly electronica. John has said in a recent article that he recorded this album using an 8-Track that King Crimson used to use. Carla Azar (from the band Autolux) plays drums, Ken Wild plays upright bass, and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez (of The Mars Volta) makes various guest appearances on guitar. John plays all other instruments on the album.
