Recently got the Rushmore Records twin disk compilation "Listen to Bob Dylan" with a number of their slightly obscure artists covering 20+ tracks.. IT'S FABULOUS... Can't recco enough..

Ive not bought a cd in almost a week now and that seriously p*sses me off.

and one of you Chicago guys let me know if the Pumpkins are really getting back together in some form. I hear rumors, but thats all it is I think.
I know this, Corgan needs to be producing something, somewhere, with some people.

Smashing Pumpkins Reunion Is Under Way, According To Sources


Rumors of a Smashing Pumpkins reunion have been rife ever since bandleader Billy Corgan took out a full-page ad in a Chicago newspaper saying he wants the group to re-form. And according to onetime Pumpkins bassist Melissa Auf Der Maur as well as a source close to the situation, the rumors are true.

In fact, Auf Der Maur said Corgan has been working on material that will, at some point, surface in the form of a new Smashing Pumpkins album.

"From what I understand, Billy [will be] making a Pumpkins record over the next little while," Auf Der Maur told MTV News last week. "Everyone knows Billy doesn't need too many people to make a Pumpkins record, other than Jimmy [Chamberlin, longtime Pumpkins drummer] � who he has [on board]."

A spokesperson for Azoff Management confirmed Thursday (February 2) that Corgan and Chamberlin have signed on with the firm as Smashing Pumpkins, and that the two are writing new music. A source close to the situation told MTV News that the duo plan to record over the summer and that the new Pumpkins could surface before the end of the year � however, no definitive plans are set.

Auf Der Maur said she's not sure whether Corgan has reached out to guitarist James Iha or bassist D'Arcy Wretzky to complete the band's original lineup, but she said she's told Corgan that she'd be happy to pitch in if he needs her; Auf Der Maur replaced Wretzky in 1999 and worked with the group until it disbanded in 2000 (see "Pumpkins Circus Folds Up With Epic Show").

YES YES YES

thanks for the article.
that was at the start of the year so hopefully something has come of it.

Jimmy went with Corgan to Zwan didnt he?
I thought he was part of the band along with the guitarist from Perfect Circle and a couple of others.
Zwan was a great album and I was p*ssed when that did not last.
The song "Lyric" stands right alongside any of the great Pumkins singles.

SPumpkins needs to be back together. they were so good for so long and although they stumbled a bit with "Adore", they picked it right back up with their final album "Machines of God".
most ppl dont agree, but Machines of God was some of their best work,
there is not a bad song on the album and it is a return to their metal/rock days of Gish as much as anything.

I think Siamese Dream will always be their best album, but Machines of God ranks a close 2nd to me.

thanks for the advice.
might check out the Fray.
they kind of remind me of coldplay, and I can listen to that.
