Album #98: S&M by Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony


1.       
Sound: Metal and John Williams
Mood: Chaotic, frantic, angry
Important Songs: The Call of Ktulu/Master of Puppets
One Song You Must Hear: Master of Puppets
Quote: Shouted by crowd: “Master… master!”
Notes: This album is a celebration of two powerful forms of music, metal and symphonic.  Together, they make a powerful statement. It is a live album with almost no new Metallica material, but what they do with the old material is amazing.  The only reason this album isn't up higher is because it never reaches the heights of the first three songs.  Still, I hope you aren’t driving in front of me when I listen to this album.  Who knows what I will do.
