I’m mildly fascinated by the (now 5 year old) Metallica Blacklist album. On the one hand, it’s a neat idea. There are some excellent songs on it. But I wish they had put a little more effort in making it functional as an album, not a collection of tracks to make playlists out of.
I would have preferred some effort to balance the number of covers per song. Nothing Else Matters gets a dozen versions, whereas Of Wolf and Man and The Struggle Within got one each.
