Megadeth: Rust in Peace Live (2010 Video) User Reviews

Miles better than the 2004 remaster could ever be.

This is great. No other way to put it. Only song I had any slight problems with was Rust In Peace... Polaris, and that's just because Dave struggles to sing it a tiny bit. Drums could've sounded better, but overall a really great way to celebrate Rust In Peace's legacy.

A great way to celebrate a landmark Megadeth album

[4-Kane · 23 November 2012]

Rust In Peace is a landmark album for Megadeth. In 2010, the band decided to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its 1990 release by doing a series of concerts in which they performed the album in its entirety. "Holy Wars," "Hangar 18," and the title track are among the noteworthy tracks from the classic album. In addition to the entire RIP set list, the show includes some of Megadeth's other classics, such as "In My Darkest Hour," "Symphony of Destruction," and "Peace Sells."

Rust In Peace Live is another great concert DVD, celebrating the 20th anniversary of RIP with terrific results. The namesake live album is also great. It's too bad the Grammys don't offer an award for "Best Live Album." RIPL would have been a strong candidate for such an award.

The return of original bassist Dave Ellefson was a welcome bonus. Having been out of the band since its temporary demise in 2002, Ellefson was - and still is - an integral part of Megadeth. He and guitarist/vocalist Dave Mustaine, along with guitarist Chris Broderick and drummer Shawn Drover, are a great team.
