REEL TIME JAZZ

Hurray. A wild Jimmy Chamberlin has appeared.

Chamberlin has been spotted at the Reelsounds Recording Studio in Chicago alongside Jazz Fusion Bass Master Percy Jones . Apparently laying down tracks for Saxophonist and 'modal rocker' Frank Catalano's latest album. According to Catalano's Yamaha Artist's page, this is a 'full album project' with Jimmy Chamberlin.

Hipsters United

They are the site the Smashing Pumpkins deserve, but not the one it needs right now.

A little over a year after Blamo closed it's doors, the ladies and gentlemen over at HU have called an end to its 5 year reign as the most rational, balanced and informative source of Smashing Pumpkins news, rumours, reviews and analysis out there.

It will be sorely missed.

I wish them all the best in whatever they do both in this world, and that other real one.

Cheers.
