Master of Puppets was my first Metallica album.To me,this is the best they've done.I,like others here,felt that the Black album,while good & still listenable,signaled the end of "classic" Metallica.But,to each their own.I have nothing against anyone who prefers "Load" & the ones after that.It all depends on what you first heard & liked.I even got a bootleg tape of "No Life'Til Leather" just to hear Dave Mustaine Metallica.
