ArthurSpectatorI happened to be in the neighbourhood last night, and deleted the crap…
ArthurSpectatorMan, I just listened to a version of United States, where Billy Corgan went fucking ballistic on guitar!
ArthurSpectatorblueczarina, what have you been trying this time? Mescaline?
From wikipedia:
\"Mescaline or 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine is a naturally-occurring psychedelic alkaloid of the phenethylamine class. It is mainly used as a recreational drug, an entheogen, and a tool to supplement various practices for transcendence, including in meditation, psychonautics, art projects, and psychedelic psychotherapy. It occurs naturally in the peyote cactus (Lophophora williamsii), the San Pedro cactus (Echinopsis pachanoi) and the Peruvian Torch cactus (Echinopsis peruviana), and in a number of other members of the Cactaceae.\"

ArthurSpectatori suggested Glass. Why no Glass?[/quote:3mgzd457]
That’s right Manilla wanted that…[/quote:3mgzd457]
What you think is called Glass is actually called Glass’ Theme.

They come from this bootie: http://www.spfreaks.com/default.aspx?pa … &item=1353Really worthwhile a listen! Live Music Archive might have it too, by the way. Ah yes, they do, check it out!

ArthurSpectatorVery good! Listening to Soma, Mayonaise, Bodies, etc., it all made my heart jump of joy!

The Aeroplane Flies High [10]Yes, madam.
ArthurSpectatorHehe, no, the cds contain the right concerts… but look at the color of the cds! They are yellow and blue instead of grey!
ArthurSpectatorThis morning I wanted to listen to the Aragon concert, but after I unwrapped the plastic, I immediately noticed something… I checked a few more concerts, and they are all the same… Is this 20th Anniversary Tour \"box set\" only?
Posted earlier, grey cds:
ArthurSpectatorHere are some pics I took with my mobile phone, so excuse me for the really bad quality. My digital camera was not at hand…
All 24 cds are individually sealed in plastic, and they arrived in perfect condition. As you can see in the pictures, they come in a cardboard box with a sticker on the side (only 1 side). But it is too large for the 24 cds, and I can hardly call it a \"boxed set\", I think the hardcore collectors can agree on that. But of course I will keep the whole set as it is, for collecting purposes…
ArthurSpectatorI just heard that I can pick up my cd set! Hopefully pictures of it later today!
ArthurSpectatorDeal?[/quote:35tbu9nh]
Deal. Sounds like a cool plan.And thanks everybody for the compliments. It’s a fine compilation again indeed!
(Sometimes I wished I was Billy Corgan his Media Advisor, so we could decide together what to release when… It would double up the # of releases, AND triple the quality of it! Hehe, kidding!)
Hope you enjoy this one again, and someday I’ll create another one I’m sure. Might take a few months again, as it is quite a job, and my free time is scarce lately, as I’m living together now for almost 6 months…
ArthurSpectatorThis is the first time that we end up with my top 3 favorites
[/quote:1v3dak2w]
Fully agree on that!
ArthurSpectatorTracklist finalized…
Artwork finished…
ZIP file with all MP3s is being uploaded as we speak… takes another hour… counting down…Meanwhile let me tell you how I came to the tracklist of this compilation, and where they were recorded.
01. C’mon 04:54 1988/00/00 (taken from the Ignoffo tape)
First I choose 6234 to kick off this compilation, as it is a rare early live track, but somehow it didn’t feel right, as it is not that \"metal\". So from the famous Ignoffo tape I took another rarity that REALLY rocked (it is also known as C’mon Motherfucker, do I need to say more?)! But yes, it was recorded in a studio… well, who cares, right?02. Spiteface 05:25 1989/03/16 WZRD-FM Studios, Chicago (US)
The full recording of this radio show is one of my favourite early recordings. Spiteface kicks ass!03. Godzilla 05:48 1990 unknown venue (taken from Mashed Potatoes) (US)
Smashing Pumpkins played a really rockin’ Godzilla quite a few times in the early days, but the version from Mashed Potatoes is one of the best recordings, if you ask me. Couldn’t be missed on this compilation!04. STP 03:38 1991/11/02 Memorial Auditorium, Burlington (US)
Another early rarity, I wanted it on here badly.05. Slunk 02:36 1992/01/20 Melkweg, Amsterdam (NL)
Nobody asked for Slunk, but it’s one of my favourite early Smashing Pumpkins rockers, so I wanted my ego to be pleased on this complation, hehehehe…The recording was done by VPRO radio, so expect a decent quality MP3.
06. Quiet 03:47 1993/12/01 Palladium, Toronto (CA)
Needs no introduction I guess. Was asked for, say no more.07. I Am One 07:00 1994/02/26 Astoria Theater, London (UK)
The rant version of I Am One couldn’t be missed, although we know it from Earphoria also. But this is the cool MTV recording version, definately worthwhile a listen!08. Geek U.S.A. 05:38 1995/10/23 Riviera Theater, Chicago (US)
From the release party of the million selling album Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness…09. X.Y.U. 10:12 1996/04/15 Arena, Berlin (DE)
10. Bodies 04:03 1996/04/15 Arena, Berlin (DE)
2 metal rockers from a rather decent audience recorded bootie: The Berlin Bullet. Listen to Billy being silly in X.Y.U.!11. Zero 02:19 1997/01/08 GM Place, Vancouver (CA)
12. Fuck You (An Ode To No One) 05:01 1997/01/08 GM Place, Vancouver (CA)
The GM Place concert is world famous in the Pumpkins community. Couldn’t be missed. I love how they did Zero here, with this little extra guitarsound that pops up in the song a few times…13. Bullet With Butterfly Wings 07:02 1998/05/28 Botanique Gardens, Brussels (BE)
Live favourite, I had no reason to leave it off this compilation… But I took a little different version, hope you like it!14. Cash Car Star 03:45 1999/04/21 Celebrity Theatre, Phoenix (US)
It was hard to choose a decent rocker from 1999, as not many concerts were given, let alone recorded. Hope you can agree on my choice…15. The Everlasting Gaze 03:54 2000/01/07 Cirkus, Stockholm (SE)
16. Rock On 06:04 2000/01/07 Cirkus, Stockholm (SE)
Again 2 songs from a decent radio recording, and since I like Rock On, I thought I had to add it too…17. Glamey Glamay 04:08 2000/04/00 (taken from Billy’s Gravity Demos)
I just had to put the rockin’ Marquis In Spades on the compilation, but I could only find a studio version, that was called Glamey Glamay in the early days. Well, hope you like it, it is a rarity anyway!18. United States 10:50 2007/06/02 Rock Am Ring Festival, Nurnberg (DE)
The Pumpkins return with a blow in 2007!19. Superchrist 06:14 2008/02/15 MEN Arena, Manchester (UK)
Couldn’t be missed, right? It rocks, it shows the Pumpkins attitude \"don’t want to listen? we’ll make you listen!\"20. Speed Kills 05:22 2008/10/31 Newport Music Hall, Columbus (US)
21. As Rome Burns 03:47 2008/10/31 Newport Music Hall, Columbus (US)
22. The Sound Of Silence incl. Lil’ Red Riding Hood 09:31 2008/10/31 Newport Music Hall, Columbus (US)
23. Heavy Metal Machine + Glass’ Theme 15:09 2008/10/31 Newport Music Hall, Columbus (US)
4 songs from the 20th Anniversary Tour, this should make everybody happy I guess. We start with a metal ballad, then the compilation keeps on rockin’ and rockin’ and rockin’ for another half an hour, almost…\"We ain’t fuckin’ dead yet!\"
Enjoy guys, it was fun making this set again! Here is the download, see you next time!

Examples of the final artwork:
ArthurSpectatorThe opening track 6234 is replaced by C’mon from the Ignoffo tape. Rocks harder, better quality.
The artwork is a drama queen again… grrrrr!
ArthurSpectatorHehe, never heard of it before… Let’s try to chase this cutie down, I’m game.
