...regarding the click track...reminds me of these quotes. It's kind of surprising that
Jimmy agreed to play with a click track:
Butch Vig:
"He [Jimmy Chamberlin] and Billy Corgan really have a special dynamic...how they play. It's very hypnotic and I think that was the secret to the Pumpkins sound...it had this kind of sexy swagger in a way...very hypnotic...and...the only way I can describe it is
they had this push pull thing and they were locked into each other..."
Push pull thing = speed up - slow down

"Jimmy reiterates how important imperfections are.
Much of his work with the Pumpkins was recorded without using a click track"

"
By my own nature, i just hate click tracks and I don't like to adhere to any set meter the whole way through a song. But I don't want people to think I waver too much, either."
