Metallica (Featuring Michael Kamen conducting The San Francisco Symphony Orchestra)Metallica: S and M [2000]

Gets played over and over again!

The kings of metal teaming up with a symphony orchestra should not work on paper but in reality the orchestra and arrangements breathe new life into the material performed at this show.James, Kirk, Lars and Jason are all on top form and the orchestra conducted by Michael Kamen are magnificent.The set list is good but I would have liked to have heard a couple of songs from AJFA played but I won't complain when the selected songs are played so well.Highly reccomended!

what an amazing dvd Metallica at their best with a wonderful orchestra . Playing new and old favourites this is a must for fans. I cannot praise this enough. On the opening piece ectasiy of Gold by the late great Ennio Morriconne it was perfection all the way, so much so I have ordered Ennio Morriconne s concert dvd . Enjoy

Well for a second hand dvd quality is good,

what can i say that has'nt been written about metallica? this dvd in my mind is epic. from the intro of ecstasy of gold, to the incredibly deep master of puppets, and the surprisingly touching rendition of outlaw torn, this dvd is worth getting if you're an open minded metal fan, or open minded classical fan.i think its incredible how metallica's work translates so easily and beautifully to classical, and the band should be given credit for this. the conducter, michael kamen, unfortunately passed away in 2004 i beleive, which adds even more to the occasion.inspiring and jaw -droppingly incredible, i am simply in even more awe than i was before of the awesome metallica

If you are into Metallica this is one for you. I didn't rate the new film when I went to see it.

This is a must have for all Metallica fans, Michael Kamen was a genius.

Well what can i say apart from "this is music at it's finest." The documentary provides an insite into what went into making this concert.After hearing that Metallica was going to play with an orchestra i thought it was going to be carrer suiced. I was completly wrong. People may think that Metallica are going to soften up some of their songs to allow the orchestra to get in, but the opposite happened. The orchestra played harder to keep up with James, Lars, Kirk and Jason. In all this is BY FAR the best music DVD out there. This will be the best value for money you will ever see.
