Info for Gish (Deluxe Edition - Rermastered)

Digitally remastered and expanded deluxe edition of the Alt-Rock quartet's 1991 debut album. Features the original album remastered plus 15 previously unreleased or alternate versions of Gish era songs.

Gish was originally released on Caroline Records, a deliberate decision by Billy Corgan, even though they had just been signed by a major – Virgin Records (this was part of the agreement). He was keen to take the pressure off, and allow the band to make the record they needed to make at that time, as well as ensuring they were more experienced and ‘ready’ when it came to delivering the follow-up to a major label.

Recorded with the then unknown Butch Vig in Wisconsin in 1990/1, Gish would unexpectedly become a relatively big seller. In fact it was the largest selling independent album ever in the US at the time.

Whether you agree with Corgan’s retrospective verdict that “there aren’t really a lot of great songs” on the record, what is not up for debate is the commitment, in terms of the production, performances and energy on the album. There is a naivety, innocence and freshness to the music which is often the case with debuts.

Billy Corgan, vocals, guitars
James Iha, lead and rhythm guitar, backing vocals
D'arcy Wretzky, bass, backing vocals
Jimmy Chamberlin, drums

The Smashing Pumpkins
have created one of the most acclaimed bodies of work in musical history having sold more than 30 million albums, and won multiple Grammy awards in the process. Formed in Chicago in 1988, they released Gish, their influential and platinum debut in 1991, which was followed by albums including the nine-time platinum Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness and the four-time platinum Siamese Dream, as well as the platinum certified 1998 album Adore. The pivotal group’s many hits defined the alternative music era and continue to resonate on modern rock radio, influencing a whole new generation.

The Pumpkins returned in 2007 with their acclaimed sixth album Zeitgeist and they have since remained on the cutting edge of music and technology with various online releases. OCEANIA is their 7th studio album and the band will support it with a global tour in 2012.

This album contains no booklet.
