-In 1996 Melvin joined The Smashing Pumpkins as a touring keyboardist for their [[Infinite Sadness tour|''Infinite Sadness'' tour]]. He played 79 shows with the band, including the [[The Smashing Pumpkins 1996-05-02 (BBC Studios)|May 2, 1996]] televised ''[[W:Top of the Pops|Top of the Pops]]'' broadcast. Presumably due to insistence from the show's producers, the band acted out playing to a prerecorded track, with only [[Billy Corgan]] singing live. Melvoin can be seen amusingly using drum mallets to act out his playing of the piano.<ref>https://youtu.be/D7o_SXztIVw?t=20</ref>

 Melvoin did not make any contributions to studio recordings by The Smashing Pumpkins, however he can be seen playing the piano in the "[[Zero]]" music video.
