Studio Rehearsals 8.8 – Thankfully recorded on something other than a cheap boombox so the quality is there as far as being able to hear everything clear. Vocals are the only thing that does not ring out clearly, but other than that this is gold. This early Metallica is a far cry from what would be in just a few short years.

Released in ’94 via a collaboration between KNAC and Ron McGovney, a number of these demos were debuted during the CLASSIC and ORIGINAL Mandatory Metallica show on 105.5 KNAC. They did a whole week with Ron McGovney in the studio and some of these gems were played on the air. Pat O’Connor, one of the DJ’s from the Mandatory show, had his hand in putting out numerous Silver Bootleg CD’s and promptly released Sucking My Love between ’94 and ’95 and then released Things That Should Not Be in late ’95. Always an interesting listen… they had a long way to go.
Lineup:
James Hetfield – Vocals (No Guitar)
