Got This For A Great Deal!!! - I have been looking for this album for several months now and it has been way too expensive from other sources for me to justify purchasing a copy. The seller said it was a first release , but it was the remastered reissue on 180 gram vinyl and that was the copy that I wanted to purchase anyway. So I actually got the copy I wanted that is three times the price on other websites that specialize in vinyl pressing. This is a still sealed copy as well and other copies I’ve considered have been used copies. The vinyl market has exploded and I’m still waiting for it to drop like a rock. I have some albums that I have seen for sale on various sites for astronomical prices, but the economy can’t sustain these prices for long if the whole market crashes. I buy vinyl records for the same reason I bought them in the 80’s. It’s just a great format and I don’t think the Millennials and Gen Z are going to continue to buy vinyl records as much as they have been. First they need constant care, storage space is another issue, and then your stylus needs replacing more often than most of these newcomers realize. I have Tidal and access to just about anything I want to listen to, but I also like having a good copy of some stuff that is not available easily on vinyl. Now I’m starting to see cassettes in my local record store and I’m not going down that road again. They stretch out for one and it affects the sound quality. If they had steel tape that was basically like digital audio and High Resolution, I might consider the cassette tape as an option, but I was hoping that MQA would take off and I think Covid killed any chance of that happening. Yes it requires a decoder, but it sounds incredible compared to a compressed CD. Review: Great Vinyl Record for an Urban Dude - This review is in regards to the vinyl. Obviously, Smashing Pumpkins - Gish is an amazing album and you're not here to read reviews from an album that came out in 1991. The vinyl is also great. My only complaint is the picture that desertcart has of the album is for the 1991 pressing, but what they sell is the 2011 remaster. I bought this with the full realization that I would most likely get the 2011 remaster (with a silver-purple reflective album cover), so I wasn't entirely disappointed. I was hoping for the original, mostly because I wanted the album to have the original cover, for nostalgia. This was actually one of the very first tapes I ever purchased, in 1993 I saved my allowance and went to the local tape store to buy a Smashing Pumpkins tape. I listened to it until the tape stopped working, and I flipped through tape cover/book hundreds of times while listening to it (what else is an elementary school-aged boy going to do all day but obsess over music?). So, I was hoping for the original cover... the one with the red pearls around the outside, the colorized black and white photograph, and the textured blackish purple background... just to bring me back to my childhood for a moment. The music still manages to bring me back there though. The irony of buying a vinyl in 2014 because I listened to tapes in 1993 is not lost on me, but what can I say... that naive little boy grew up into an urban dude. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004707ARU | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,202 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #1,636 in Rock (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (1,242) | | Date First Available | October 7, 2011 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 5099990959615 | | Label | Virgin | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Virgin | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2011 | | Product Dimensions | 0.26 x 12.44 x 12.3 inches; 1.17 Pounds | ## Images ![Gish - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712irN0PDuL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love This Album.
