Bringing back memories of my teenage years. Underrated album. D'arcy on "Daydream" was great, would have been great if they used her for vocals more. Siamese Dream is peak.

How is this different from the 2011 2012 reissue?

Arguably their best album

When you were at university? I thought TSP were a 90s band, not from the 60s. Learn something new everyday, eh Barry?

Definitely my favorite album by them. Nice vinyl.

Knocked your socks off back in the early '90's. Indie music got power and muscle then. It was also an outstanding job of high level musicianship and production on a limited budget.

❌Great 90’s album to be sure,
…but “change of subject” I recently listened to Blind Melon’s SOUP on vinyl
I thought that I would thoroughly enjoy this album, but after 5 spins I just did not.

No, sorry buddy…..I never really got into the Pumpkins…..but, very influential band nonetheless…..I think maybe I'll give it a whip through, and hopefully am pleasantly surprised……Thanks for the review….great work as usual…..Be Well….😎✌️

That does look authentic – splits in the inner and outer sleeve, dust on the vinyl. Did it skip?😁

Every time I see Billy Corgan now all I can think of is the time he was stuffing his face with chips & dip on stage between songs and/or breaks.

I wore this cd out when it was first released back in the day. 😊

Just coming here to say about the seam splits, that would be going back immediately, FFS 🤦♂️
Be good to hear you comment when stuff arrives damaged, also checking if the discs are not warped.

In Dec. 1991 me and a group of around 7 others were supposed to be seeing RHCP/Nirvana/Pearl Jam. Nirvana left the tour after the previous show to headline their own tour. They were replaced by a band none of us had ever heard of called Smashing Pumpkins. The worst band I've ever seen in concert, bar none.
This was confirmed six years later when I saw them open for the Stones.

Gish is more about the music and is more one-note than anything else they did back then (original period up to and including their split at the end of 2000), but has some great songs, brilliant riffs, mellow passages and of course Jimmy C's thunderous drumming. It's actually my least favourite of the SP 1.0 works, but I respect anyone's opinion who differs. Whilst all these albums were unmistakingly Pumpkins (like them or not as a band, they are impossible to confuse with anyone else), no two releases sounded that alike, as Corgan in those days changed rapidly in his composition style, as well as producing an absolutely prodigious volume of quality songs. The Aeroplane Flies High b-sides box set of tracks that failed to make the 28-song behemoth that is MCIS would comfortably blow out of the water the best output of many bands.
I'm happy to see the Pumpkins getting a shout-out on what is a channel dedicated to Classic Rock, because they were absolutely NOT a grunge band in any sense, and Corgan's influences were wide and varied, with psychedelia (on Gish in particular and their early non-album stuff), prog, heavy rock, metal, new wave, glam and later on even industrial sounds going on, to varying degrees.

Their worst album absolutely terrible.Anyone who says anything else knows nothing about this band . Siamese Dream absolutely smacked.

Pre-ordered this beauty a while ago but in the grey and purple swirl pattern, not the boring black lol.

Just ordered mine. Thanks for the heads up, I wasn’t even aware of this until I saw your video. Love the channel. 😎

I bought a recent reissue, the one with foil cover and it was painful to listen to. Nonfill and noise.
Later represses seemed to fix that and used better material, although I see your copy is dirty a.f., as usual with modern vinyl.
Smh.

Great album. I had it on CD. I might get it on vinyl. It’s classic Pumpkins where Billy goes from quiet parts, then in an instant it’s balls to the wall.

Can't understand why all 180 gram reissues don't come standard in a MoFi style resealable poly inner sleeve. I'd happily pay the extra dollar.

My go to Pumpkins album. Bought it as a cassette when it came out. I don't intend to buy the vinyl, but I wouldn't mind if I'd change my mind.
