    D'arcy, had such an ability to harmonize with Billy. I have a spot in my heart for her. She is what is missing from the reformed band. I hope her the best and am grateful for the time she spent with the Pumpkins. I honestly don't think as much of the early sound would have been the same. It's subtle but she is there.

      Btw Billy only did the bass on gish and SD but he also did James parts so I guess he's a bad musician too? Billy did the parts because he's Billy Corgan, not because James and darcy were that bad. Darcy sounded good on any live version I've seen and she was a huge part of the band.

      same here. while many consider mellon collie their peak, i consider it the beginning of their downfall. like guns n roses with the "illusion" albums, they got too pretentious for their own good. it's still a solid album (as is both illusions) but with it they lost sight of what made them great.

      She gets shit on (unreasonably so) because Billy wrote and recorded the bass on the albums. She definitely holds it down live, and her vocals made Billy sound so much better than he actually was (she was heavy in the mix both live and on albums), but she gets hate because she's playing the bass lines that Billy wrote and originally performed.

He recorded the bass on Machina and Adore, and Mellon Collie was fully collaborative from all members. Billy Corgan is an amazing musician, but he's also rich and insane and loves to exaggerate his prowess. Now his guitar playing is tasteless schlock and he doesn't even use pedals anymore.

    D'Arcy for years was said to be a so-so bassist, but this is solid proof that she was excellent. The style is on par with Paul McCartney with notes climbing scales all over and I didn't notice a single mistake. It must have been a personality issue, because clearly she was a very reliable bassist.
