As mentioned elsewhere, take all tabs with a grain of salt, however, the solos are a near-enough note-by-note transcription and each riff is intricately tabbed to include even the most subtle of variations.

Includes a very well-written introduction, outlining some very important and helpful tips to assist you in your mastery of one of Metllica’s finest albums.

In a one-line verdict: A definite must-have, even as a collector’s item!

The book explains very well but it could be more in depth descriptions. It doesn't show you how to move the wah pedal, it just says w/wah. Overall this book is very good for the beginner guitarist. If the author could make this book again they should have performace notes on all of the songs. Rating: 4 / 5 I was given this book as a present.

As much as I practice songs from Kill em all (their best in my opinion), I completed songs from this album much faster. <br /> <br />This album has every note for rhythm and lead, and I have not seen any other versions of this book that may trick you into buying a summary version (such as you see with the Garage inc tab book). You are provided both musical notation and number tabs (for musical dummies like myself), and in the few parts that you do not see number tabs and just see a note (G,A,etc), the song starts with a key that number tabs each note (ex: a 5-7 on the bottom two strings = A Chord type thing). <br /> <br />Absolutely no complaints on this book. There is even a guitar key at the start (as there is with every Cherry Lane tab book) that shows you what an H or P means in the tabs as well as about 20 other symbols. Probably the easiest to play of the first 5 Metallica albums, and more recognizable songs to the general rock listener. <br /> <br /> Rating: 5 / 5 While this is not among my favorite Metallica albums, it does have a few songs that are much easier to learn for the beginner and intermediate guitarist.
