    Billy Corgan Guests On New Courtney Love Album

    The Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan is set to appear on the new Courtney Love album.

    The former Hole frontwoman has described her new long-player ‘Nobody’s Daughter’ as her “best record” yet. It has been produced by Linda Perry, who Courtney appeared onstage with in Los Angeles at the weekend.

    Speaking of the record, Love said: "This is my best record. Corgan's on it from the (Smashing) Pumpkins, and Linda Perry - who out of my record got the Green Day record. That's a scoop - I just gave that away with my big mouth."

    She also hinted that the record may be ready for release by winter time, continuing to BBC6music: "I have to decide on whether I want to take a chance on December and all the big artists. Or whether I want to be a little more conservative, because you're competing for Christmas in December."

    Courtney also joked that she is keen on stealing Babyshambles bassist Drew McConnell to appear in her band, adding: "He's committed, he's very loyal, he's a Scorpio. He's committed to his Pete Doherty thing. I played with him (Drew) the other night, we had really good chemistry and it's totally on him - it's four shows, he needs to decide. My door is open to Drew any day."

    • God! Courtney is, by far, one of the best lyric writers of this generation! Stupid nirvana fan always have to underestimate her talent! And the average stupid person always thinks ”she was on drugs, what a mess! how can she be talented!”. **** u!! courtney rules!

    • Billy corgan and Perry are talented? LOL. God you guys have pretty poor standards in what is deemed talent. One trip ponies and Courtney is just as lame but has media cred. parasites on parasites does not = talent.

    • I think you mean ”one trick” ponies. BTW, I love the new Pumpkins, and Perry both RAWKS and ROCKS where needed. The new courtney record just keeps on improving everytime I’m treated to a new sample or track thru the media and her various sites.
