I've been a big Slayer fan since I was a kid, the first time I saw them live was on the South Of Heaven tour and I hope to catch them on their next tour. The latest issue of Guitar World has an interesting interview with Kerry and Tom - I've known for a while that post-Seasons it has been Kerry recording all but Jeff's lead tracks in the studio, but I had no idea Kerry has been doing nearly everything but Tom's vocals and the drum tracks...he has been laying down the bass on their albums and even states in the interview he'll record vocals how he wants or thinks they should be sung and then give them to Tom who remarked in the interview this was the first album where he was given the freedom to just do the vocals as he saw fit.
Thanks to the internet we have this - in my opinion the be-all, end-all of metal shows - Slayer's 1986 show at The Ritz on the Reign in Blood tour:
Rest in Peace, Jeff
