>Hey, you make a cover of a great song I can see if you want to add your own
spice to the mix but they simply butchered this Seger classic.

I caught about half of "Turn the Page" as done by Metallica on the radio
yesterday.  I didn't think it was haf bad.  My biggest question was more
"WHY?" - it just didn't seem to be a song that needed a Metallica treatment.
On the other hand, based on comments from both Joe and Albert Bouchard, I
am very eager to hear their version of "Astronomy".

John

PS: As AB mentioned, today is Joe Bouchard's 50th birthday.  I'm gonna go
home, strap on the bass, and play along to "Hot Rails to Hell" in his honor.
