Metallica - "Turn the Page"

Out of that whole album of covers, this was the one you picked? I thought it was the worst. The cover of "Whiskey In The Jar" by Thin Lizzy blew it away, as did "Last Caress" by the Misfits (who also had a cool album covering 50's standards i.e "Great Balls of Fire.")

The Thin Lizzy version is pretty good, but really the best versions are Irish folk versions IMHO. The best of which is probably the Pogues and the Dubliners when they did it together. Clancy Brothers did it well too.
