SMASHING PUMPKINS I Am One 1990 debut 7" VINYL 45 on Limited Potential (LimP 006). The glossy vinyl is in VG+/EX condition with some scuffing on side A that does not affect play. Plays great. The picture sleeve is in excellent condition with no writing or tears.
"I Am One" is the debut single by American alternative rock band the Smashing Pumpkins. It was the band's first ever release and remains the only single issued by the band with co-writing credits to both Billy Corgan and James Iha. It charted on the UK Singles Chart at a peak position of number 73.
Two recordings of the song were released. One was recorded in 1990 and was the Pumpkins' first release and first on Limited Potential. This recording was financed with the money from Corgan's college tuition fund left by his grandmother. "I Am One" was re-recorded for Gish and a new single was released on Caroline Records and Hut Recordings. Corgan later stated his regret with not re-working the song for Gish, as the two versions are nearly identical.
With only 1,500 copies pressed, the release is highly sought after by collectors.
"I Am One" features a doubled guitar solo – a technique later used on Pumpkins songs like "Ava Adore", "Tarantula", and "Bring the Light".
