I quite enjoyed Siamese Dream, and still do actually. Not just the album, but that tour. Those were some great live songs for me, sorry if others disagree. Soma was extraordinarily atmospheric (with what I still say was one of the best "hitting" sections I have every witnessed), the power of Geek USA kicked my nuts in, And the drums of Silverfuck just bashed me upside the head. Now, granted, I was that little 16 year old at the time you are mentioning, and had only seen a handful of live shows by then, but the comments hold true. That album and tour spoke to me, and I still enjoy it very much to this day, be it the blind nostalgia or whatever.
But Mellon Collie and everything after really wore me thin. Albums and shows. Corgan just became such crap...
I will always stand behind SD and Gish though as solid rock albums.
