Amidst the live albums and endless bootlegs, singles b-sides and bonus tracks, there are absolutely countless numbers of live recordings and releases by Metallica. And ‘Fan Can #2’ is literally no different than the thousands of others.
Seeing as this was exclusive to fan club members, meant to be a limited collectors item, don’t expect the most definitive track list of all time. We get the likes of ‘One’, ‘Fade to Black’, ‘Wherever I May Roam’, a portion of ‘Master of Puppets’ as well as a mistake-laden ‘King Nothing’, which the band jokingly start again after messing up the intro, but by 1997, you know that any Metallica live release that fits on one disc is going to take a few shortcuts.
Overall, this is a nice little collectable for fans though. Sadly I don’t have the accompanying VHS, only the CD, and it’s not likely I’ll ever go back to listen to it. But regardless, it’s still a worthy addition to the collection.
