Sign in to disble this ad
Riding in the car today, going through some old CDs, I came across Metallica`s "Garage Days / $5.98 EP" Had not listened to it in years; popped it in. Instantly reminded of why I always thought this was an overlooked gem in Metallica`s catalog - Newstead is brutal ! They sound absolutely amazing with the bass up in the mix; it`s the best mix of any of their stuff. "The Wait" and "Crash Course"....stunning ! Thoughts ?

Seriously though. Jason brought a musicianship that otherwise would not be there, too bad they erased the bass track in And justice for all.

That, and a Jump in the Fire single, which, I really wish I still had, and know exactly what I traded it for in 1988.

Umm, yeah. I know.  It`s like Jason used all of his "mix credits" up on that one album.

Meh.
