Smashing Pumpkins: an appreciation
Wow. I just realized that the Smashing Pumpkins' back catalog was added to Rhapsody today, including essential early and mid-90s releases like Gish & Siamese Dream and b-side compilation Pisces Iscariot. Click here for a sampler of some of my favorite Pumpkins songs, from when Billy Corgan still advocated lysergic self-medication and before drummer Jimmy Chamberlain got hooked on the horse.

Thanks for pointing this out. The only SP song I have listened before was that Depeche Mode cover. Now I know why my bandmates like them so much.
Oh wow. I was just thinking of playlist ideas today and lamenting the lack of early SP. Seminal stuff here for sure. Thanks for letting me know...my day is now complete.
OK. I may have to go over and write a post of my own about this blessed event. Just started listening to the playlist and I can't believe how much I missed hearing their music 'on-demand.' Rhapsody, you rock. In a big, big way.
Looks like something's gone wrong with those tracks. They're all locked now and unavailable. Any idea what the story is?
They're back up now, along with a 114-song compilation of rarities and b-sides. Enjoy! I know I will.
