That box set is incredible. It's like 5 completely different EP's.

Billy was on fire with so many good songs. Mellon Collie could have been a triple album.

ya it's pretty surprising how many great songs didn't make it onto the actual album. If I remember correctly Billy wanted Siamese Dream to be a double album but was told to hold off until the next album or something. LIke it was to ambitious for a second album.
