Serious bluegrass covers.......2007-07-11
My friends and I found this at a Best Buy one evening, and bought it as a joke thinking that it was going to be like Hayseed Dixie but hopefully with better singing. We laughed like crazy at first, but gradually came around and started saying "wow, that's actually a great way to re-work the song."
Now the album will not be for everyone. Metal fans are one of those groups that will by and large stick to their genre only and not give others a chance. If you're like me, though, and you not only love cover songs but also ones that try to take the material to a new place, give this CD a try.
The only weak spot, as has been noted in other reviews, is Fuel. The rest of the CD ranges from solid (Four Horsemen) to spectacular (Hero of the Day).
Not as good as the AC/DC Bluegrass tribute.......2007-04-21
I LOVED the AC/DC Bluegrass Tribute so much I came back for the Metallica version.....I listed to the first minute of each song...then skipped to the next...and haven't played it again since....I personally thought it was awful...but looks like others liked it based on the below reviews....so if you can handle the bad singing the whole way through each song....you might like it!
The are all fun .......2007-02-04
Okay so its like this,
I have been listening to rock and roll for 25 years
I work in an office, do the "cube life", sitting at a PC for most of the day, working on my own, popping out to get liquids or drain liquids, chat some, that's the life. Now this ipod deal comes along a few years ago. Only, if your going to listen to music all day, you just cant listen to real pure rock and roll all day, you just cant. I don't care if your homeless sitting in a park all day with an ipod on, you just cant listen to real hard rock and roll for hours and hours at time all day everyday.
Classical puts me to sleep. I can handle some of it in the morning, ease into the day, but not allot of it. Pop I don't care for much. Country is singing about my dog had an affair on my wife doesn't cut it either, what did I just say? Anyway, and Rap is out. Opera, No, what ARE they saying?!. So what to do?
Well thanks to my Dad, who used to watch Hee Haw all the time when I was growing up, and man did I hate it that show! Even today I seen some of it not long ago, its corny country stuff, but when Roy Clark comes on and solos for a song, then man always caught my attention. He was flat out good. But still I would "never" and have never owned a bluegrass cd. Get real!
But then, a friend, listening to me talk of my search to get some kind of music going for the day, loaned me a String Cheese Incident CD, an On The Road 3 cd set, and said just try it for awhile. Let it grow on you. What do you have to lose? Well yep I ended up submitting to it, and then really liking it. Before long I was walking around the office humming along, co workers going what you got playing man?? So having remembered seeing these Pickin' on cd's before, I said well why not try it, so I started off with one, right away started laughing and laughing good not at it. Then I find these Bluegrass tributes. Now mind you no way would this happen up till a few years ago. Getting older? I don't know, many people are born and raised on this stuff. Its all in how you approach it. And I will tell ya what, that was a couple years ago and 6 pickin' on cd's later, a few bluegrass tributes, I am so much more relaxed at work now. What I didn't notice before was music and singing along with it ALL day works on you more than you realize. I actually like the pickin' On ones more, as I listen to music all day, but these are fun also! Just having some "cruising tunes" playing with no singing really is relaxing. I don't have this playing all day, but its taking up a couple hours a day. Some more String Cheese cd's. And I will sooner or later just end up getting everyone of these pickin' on cd's. You see its not all about "oh this one doesn't jam enough" or the other one is better than this one. Nah. If you like Rock, and don't want to listen to it all day, then get used to these trust me, I did and its worth it. I still laugh at dif times playing them. And now some coworkers and friends have them loaded up also. I still have all the "real" bands loaded into my ipod, never giving up on Classic Rock and Roll, ever!
Lastly, I am not someone who sells these CD's. I actually am very picky if you read my reviews, and look at my Amazon name! and flunk so much stuff that's out there. Believe me this has caught me off guard. Just thought I would let anyone know that is searching for a new way listen to the day to try it out a bit. Give it time. Don't just listen partly or once then blow it all off, scoff and go Sacrilege! For I did before, but now a convert, and after a couple years of it, I get it, and will be enjoying these for years to come, just like the real rock and roll at times. Good luck.
A real genre-bender/uniter.......2006-10-18
This group has a tribute album to Modest Mouse, too. I've only heard 3 songs off of it, but it is amazing.
Best thing I ever bought in my life........2006-05-25
I recommend getting both albums if you're planning on getting the first because the second one is even BETTER. They took the few lyrics in To Live Is To Die and made it a three minute song that I can sing a long to in my car forever. And ever.
These guys are talented and committed to not destroying Metallicas name completely. Almost every song is up-beat and toe tapping but you can still hear Hetfields angst in everyones folk guitars.
Oh and theres a mandolin. Come on.

Album Description
Thanks to MTV, Ozzy Osbourne and his family are household names--sort of a Beverly Hillbillies for the 21st century. Black and Bluegrass: A Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath couldn't agree more. Trading Ozzy's anguished vocals for high-lonesome harmonies, and screaming guitars for lightning-quick banjos, this collection gives the music of heavy metal's founding father the bluegrass treatment. Performed by Iron Horse and featuring such classics as "Crazy Train," "Paranoid" and "Mama, I'm Coming Home," Black and Bluegrass cooks up a tribute as good as mama's cornbread--with a side of chicken heads.Customer Reviews:
Hillbilly Twist.......2007-07-12
Hillbilly Sabbath !.......2006-03-04
Lots Of Fun.......2005-12-25
Iron Horse on the other hand has "nailed" Ozzy. Hard to believe Ozzy's music could be done in a "bluegrass style". It works. I found something interesting in the music translation. Compare "Mama,I'm Coming Home" with the "Beatles" song "You Like Me Too Much". Listen to them "back to back".

If you think the percussionist's role is merely to supply rhythmic backbone, you haven't encountered the phenomenon named Evelyn Glennie. The category-defying Scottish musician has spent her career pursuing the unique route of percussion virtuoso, turning music into an intensely hyperactive verb. Glennie's sound world encompasses a global, pan-cultural panoply of music makers in addition to the standard drum kit: watergongs, bamboo sticks, ceramic bells, car exhaust pipes, finger cymbals, thundersheet--to name a few from the arsenal she uses here (Glennie reportedly owns over 1,000 percussive instruments). Even in her interpretations of works by other composers--such as James MacMillan's Veni, Veni, Emmanuel or the Grammy-nominated Concerto for Percussion by Joseph Schwantner--Glennie scoops out plentiful opportunities for improvisation; but the concept of Shadow Behind the Iron Sun was to allow Glennie to lock herself up in her studio and improvise the entire album. With the help of her collaborator, pop mixmaster Michael Brauer, the result is a fantastically textured, mesmerizing adventure for the ears and the imagination. Despite a vague ambition to explore "as many moods as possible" (Michael Crichton's Eaters of the Dead was apparently the source for some of the picturesque titles here, such as "Attack of the Glow Worm" and "Wind Horse"), the variety and juxtaposition of colors evoke a cinematically gripping, almost synesthetic sense of atmosphere--yet another evolution of "program music" into the 21st century? Much of the fun is in experiencing sounds whose origin remains mysterious, as Glennie performs her one-woman-as-orchestra wonders. --Thomas MayCustomer Reviews:

Something a little different.......2000-09-23
A near-perfect album.......2000-04-08
Solo percussion is, admittedly, an acquired taste. The song samples here give you a reasonable flavor of the album. If you don't like them, don't buy it.
At the same time, Glennie has done more than anybody to advance the art, the possibilities, and the popularity of percussion. (I saw her perform a snare solo encore last year that brought the audience to its feet.) In this album, she operates with more freedom and pushes more boundaries than in anything she's done to date. Yet it's still an approachable and genuinely exciting collection of music.

Coe's Country/Rock--Live!.......2004-04-19
The Iron Horse Saloon comes to life with this live album!.......2003-04-16
1. Ohio Boy- This track is a very good autobiographical song. This is a long song and is well worth the price of admission.
2.Son of the South- A rockin redneck anthem. This is one of my favorite tracks on the cd.
3.59 Cadillac 57 Chevrolet- Has a fifties rock vibe to it. Co wrote by Kid Rock. 1st time its been on cd. Its ok. nothing special.
4.Wreckless-Another new song co wrote by Kid Rock. Its kind of a story song anout a guy who kills himself because of a cheating wife. Average song.
5. Nothing to Lose- Good rockin song. Nice lyrics and It puts an answer to the racist question.
6.When I was a Young Man- Another one of my favorites. Lyrics are nice. Pretty much a song about the title. A nostalgia song.
7. If that ain't country- One of my all time favorite D.A.C. songs. Again talking about his life.
8. Only God Knows Why- The best song on the album. A great artist can perform his own songs but only the truly special can take another's song and make it his own. Wrote by Kid Rock but mastered by DAC.
9. Single Father- New song dedicated to single parents. Nice song one of the most personal songs on the album.
10.Drank my wife away- A classic drinking song. Outdoes any Hank Jr drinking song.
11. A harley someday- A bike song about someone that wants to have a harley. A good song for the biker crowd of the Ironhorse Saloon.
12.Panheads Forever- The single greatest biker song ever. Originally on the X-rated cd. Shouldn't have been on that cd or it may have got better recognition as a great song.
13. Take this Job and shove it- Standard DAC. If you dont know this song why are you reading this anyway.
14. The Ride- A hank sr. tribute song. My fav DAC song. One of the best about Hank.
15. Never Called Me by My Name- Again if you dont know this song why are you here. He changed the ending to add a slim shady part.
16.Amanda- He really shines on this Waylon Cover. This was recorded before Waylon died. He doesnt do it better than waylon but still does very good.
Overall this is a very good cd. Nice mixture of new and old songs. I recommend to anyone who likes true country and not the pop country of today.
DAC Just As You Want Him.......2002-10-07
Was Bruce Springsteen really backstage during the formative years? Who cares when it makes a great story with an ending like
"F..k dude,I'm from Ohio!" Not for the faint of heart,this CD is David Allan Coe at his best. Not a bad cut here,if you are a true David Allan Coe fan,this one is a must!
At long last the wait is over.......2002-10-04
