On the latest episode of my Talkin' Rock podcast, Megadeth's Dave Mustaine revealed that they recorded a Judas Priest Cover for an upcoming Amazon project. He didn't give me much more info than that, just to say, "We went and listened to the song and charted out the performance. And going into that kind of micromanaging of the song, that minutiae production, we started to see a lot of things in the song where it seemed like there was no guide for the song. So we did everything the way that we do our recordings. And I believe it got a little more straightforward with the riffing and everything."
I also got Dave to talk about how he always manages to get killer guitar players in his band. He told me that to play in Megadeth, they have to have the three A's....Attitude - Appearance - Ability. He went on to talk about each point.
