Editorial Reviews

In March of 2010 Megadeth hit the road in celebration of the 20th anniversary of their classic 1990 album, Rust In Peace. The show was taped on the last night of the tour at the legendary Hollywood Palladium, not far from where Megadeth was formed in 1983. The band played Rust In Peace in its entirety, including all-time classics Holy Wars...The Punishment Due and Hangar 18. The set list also featured six other fan favorites, including Trust, Symphony Of Destruction and Peace Sells.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dave and Dave Kick a** again!, September 10, 2010

It's so great to see Dave Ellefson back in Megadeth! Sure, Dave Mustaine's hired some talented bassists over the years, but a 20th anniversary Rust in Peace tour just wouldn't have been the same without Ellefson. It would have lacked authenticity. The "real" Megadeth, in my mind, has always had both Daves in it.

As for the music, this is an exciting live set. "Rust in Peace" stands head and shoulders above the rest of Megadeth's catalogue - which says a lot, as "Countdown to Extinction," "Endgame," and "United Abominations" are all also great. The live renditions here of "Peace Sells" and "Symphony of Destruction" are also superb - especially knowing that the man who gave birth to "Peace Sells"'s classic bass riff is back in the fold! I don't know what's happened since this tour, but I hope the Daves stick it out for another studio album.

I'm a huge megadeth fan and I believe RUST IN PEACE is one of the best albums Mustaine & Co. have ever recorded. This live version (including the bonus tracks) sounds incredible. It's a essential album for all heavy metal/hard rock fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sounds better than ever!!, September 8, 2010

I've always been a huge Megadeth fan, but ironically I was one of the very few who wasn't really crazy about 'Rust in Peace.' Don't get me wrong I did like tracks that of course are considered classics such as "Holy Wars.." & "Hangar 18" but even those tracks tend to drag on & probably could have been better if they were shortened a bit but that's just my take on it. Anyway, a few years back Dave Mustaine remastered 'Rust in Peace' & truth be told I was very impressed but it still wasn't enough to really win me over. Here we are now with 'Rust in Peace Live' & WOW..BIG DIFFERENCE!! Megadeth truly brings this album to a whole new level live as the music is heavier & just plain sounds well produced (unlike the original as we all know!) What really brings this album to 5 stars for me is the extra SIX bonus tracks as they sound even better than ever & is a good mix of tracks from back in the day (I wish there was a Youthanasia track though.) If you are like me or you already liked 'Rust in Peace' don't pass this up!
