They played Ride The Lightning for 9 of us in my friends Basement to get our opinion.The same basement from the other pic.I remember none of us liked it at first and we told em so..We where wrong of course.Our dislike was due to our allegiance to Mustane.
Ride the Lightning turned out to be one of my favorite albums as was Kill em All.It was all Mustanes music.

That's some cool stuff, NIB. Metallica was one of the bands that got me started listening to metal. And I remember rushing out to buy Killing is My Business.....as soon as it made it into my local record store. Thanks for bringing back some memories from my high school days.
I also heard that Mustaine had to find his way back to California with no money after they kicked him out of the band. Any truth to that?
