its an improvement in tallicas production, on the cd every Ennio Morricone song is by a different artist, they chose Metallica for EOG. I think I heard Bruce Springsteen is another one on the cd and other random acts . I enjoy THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY SOUNDTRACK (very good listen), so I think its a good tune...(As for Metallicas new album... no comment)Oh don't get me wrong, I'd still rather listen to an album that has this track on it fifteen times in a row than I'd listen to St. Anger. But it still sounds completely wrong to me (having an orchestra play your songs really didn't work, don't try it the other way around for fucks sake.) And considering that Celine Dion is another one of the confirmed contributors to this "tribute" album, I can honestly say I'd rather insert pencils in both my ears until my eardrums pop than actually listen to this album. Leave the man alone please, he doesn't deserve this kind of torture.
.that lead tone is atrocious
And agree about the miserable tone and wah wah masturbation. Repeat after me, Kirk: I am not Hendrix. I am not Hendrix...
As do I, but there's one thing I think you are wrong about, Kirk knows he aint no Hendrix in fact he still frequently gets guitar lessons as he like the public knows that he still needs alot of work put into his guitar skills.
