After "And Justice For All", the only album I can respect that was released by Metallica is "Garage Inc". The entire album was covers from their history. Of course the album was released to make money, but it also showed where most bands make their start. I'm not sure I could find a band that never played music from another band. That said, I am going to list every song on Garage Inc. with both versions. Original on the left, and Metallica on the right.
Disk 1
Discharge:Free speech for the dumb.
Diamond Head: It's Electric
Black Sabbath: Sabbra Cadabra
Bob Seger: Turn The Page
Misfits: Die, Die my darling
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: Loverman
Mercyful Fate/King Diamond: Satan's Fall / Curse Of The Pharaohs / A Corpse Without Soul / Into The Coven / Evil
Since it is a mix of a few songs, Its going to be a bit harder to do this one and I'll link it later.
Blue Oyster Cult: Astronomy
Thin Lizzy: Whiskey In The Jar
Lynyrd Skynyrd: Tuesday's Gone
Discharge: The More I See
Disk 2
Diamond Head: Helpless
Holocaust: The Small Hours
Killing Joke: The Wait
Budgie: Crash Course In Brain Surgery (Sorry, I couldn't find a decent Metallica version.)
Misfits: Last Caress / Green Hell
Misfits is individual songs. Metallica side is both songs.
Metallica side is green hell only
Diamond Head: Am I Evil
Blitzkrieg: Blitzkrieg
Budgie: Breadfan
Diamond Head: The Prince
Queen: Stone Cold Crazy
Anti-Nowhere League: So What?
Sweet Savage: Killing Time
Motörhead: Overkill
Motörhead: Damage Case
Motörhead: Stone Dead Forever
Motörhead: Too Late Too Late
I think that for the most part, Metallica did an awesome job covering these songs. Most were done justice, but, some are crap.
I don't expect anyone to watch every video, but it might be worth your time to listen to a few of them.
I hope at least one member of Music Banter (besides me) enjoys the effort I put into this. Thanks
