This is a terrific ‘B’ quality bootleg from the Ride The Lightning tour.
It’s all here on this disc – the very best material you can pull off the first two albums, and all of it played at about twice the speed of the original versions. Unlike today, where most of the versions of their songs that they play live are closer to ‘real’ time, these version just fly along. At times you wonder if the band can keep up with themselves!
All great songs, all great versions. Best for me here include “Fight Fire With Fire”, “No Remorse” (which is ludicrously fast), “No Remorse”, “Whiplash” and “Motorbreath”.
Rating: Greats from a long-gone era. 4/5.
