Stars Fall In
East
Honeyspider
Egg
Snap (If I Could)
My Dahlia
Not Worth Asking
C’mon
With You
Psychodelic
Sun

this is pretty good but where is nothing and everything and vanilla. and THERE IT GOES

also psychodelic is shit... so is c'mon, really. but it had a lot of potential

stars fall in is def #1 tho

i don't even remember some of this very well, god damn it now i have to listen but i'll attempt a tracklist

Stars Fall In
Not Worth Asking
Sun
East
nothing and everything
Honeyspider
there it goes
Snap (If I Could)
vanilla
Egg

wow.. that shit was incredible. Just knowing I had the Ignafo tapes when they first hit. All the fan shit you had to do to get on the trade tree's. Billy was talking from the heart on this. I pray he keeps this up.

[FoolofaTook]

what did he say you fuckers

[brothahi4L]

Watch it with your daddy

[brothahi4L]

Pretty interestinh.especially daydream story with darcy.lol

[FoolofaTook]

so you think your all that huh

[Joey Goldberg]

was Bleed not written before 1990? because the acoustic version of that is for sure one of my favorite pre-Gish songs

& also, I still have a about 15-20 minutes left to watch of this but did the bald mothafucka really just gloss over Snail?

[Joey Goldberg]

ok he caught it at the very end, sikk

i don't know where the people saying he "threw shade" on D'arcy are coming from. his explanation as to why Daydream was one of the only times she did vocals on a record is pretty sensible to anyone who's been in a recording situation at least

[FoolofaTook]

Ur dads been in a recording situation

I've made two fake SP albums. An 1988 Gothy/nuwave album and a 1990 rock driven album. I am a sucker for the Pre-Gish days. I even had artwork commissioned for my 88 album.

[Joey Goldberg]

well where the fuck are they, Loren???

He did. He said she wasn’t supposed to sing it but it was a way to make her less insufferable. He mentioned that the whole thing was a bad experience, which is why her being the lead vocal never happened again on an album

The Smashing Pumpkins
Nothing Ever Changes (1988)
1. Oui Henri
2. The Vigil
3. My Eternity
4. She
5. Bleed
6. Holiday
7. Cross
8. Armed to the Teeth
9. Screaming
10. Death of a Mind
11. Nothing and Everything
12. Spiteface
13. 6234
14. I Fall
15. Under Your Spell
16. Jennifer Ever
17. There It Goes

It's completely bloated, but I like it as a compilation of the era. I set volume and EQ across of the tracks to normalize the listening experience. I also trimmed/edited out all the crowed noise, claps, false starts, talking, etc.

[FoolofaTook]

that is a dope cover avlo

Corgan's Gish-talk now on YouTube too:

[Squish Squash]

Imagine not including East. Honestly I’m not sure why Billy was able to leave that off of Gish without being arrested for treason.

it's in the vein of Rhinoceros & Snail, but not as good. not sure what the outrage is here

[FoolofaTook]

yeah especially since sun >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> east

[Joey Goldberg]

more importantly though, Big Truck05 could you tell me why the hell these new windows pop up every time I visit the board now? don't tell me you have nothing to do with it you godly son of a bitch i'm not fooled by such a simple "switcheroo"

[FoolofaTook]

[GreenDogGlynis]

It was alright. I thought the best aspect of it was about how the band functioned when everyone had a day job or was broke or both, and before anyone knew the band was going to be much of anything. I would've liked to have heard more about the creation of the songs when all four members were rehearsing them, which there must have been a ton of hours put in on. Unsurprisingly, Billy only talks about the times when it was just him and jimmy.

Corgan's Gish-talk now with an official teaser on the Smashing Pumpkins YouTube channel too:
