Megadeth - 1988 - Mary Jane

[@rexhunter406]

Looking at the chromaticism of the riffs, I really don't know how he managed to make this so melodic... Mustaine is a god at songwriting

[@telugumm5792]

U r right

[@DevrimOdabas]

+Rex Hunter chromaticism makes it more evil

[@sunk777]

The thing is that he was too high on Heroin when he wrote his music, so high that DEMONS HELPED HIM, so he CHANNELLED HIS MUSIC, what normal human being is able to do all the thing's he has done???, thats why people call him a god, ancient gods are actually fallen angels (demons parents)

Crazy guitars...rhythm is totally jazz..interlude in clean is a piece of its own. I am amazed how the stoned as a rock Dave is able to perform this while singing at the same time. Such a great and underrated guitarist.

[@rattlehead999]

Epic performance, they should play the song much more often.

[@brianmcawesome]

+IIIRattleHeadIII The problem with this song is that the vocals are very very high, and Dave has trouble singing as high as he used to nowadays. This is probably the highest Megadeth song other than Looking Down the Cross.

[@metalero551]

+Brian McCarthy Yeah he used to sure be very high back then. see what I did there?:D

[@josemariaortizbarrera7788]

another one is five magics.why the no play that amazing song???

[@RabiesPlanet]

Five Magics talks about Wizardry, Sorcery, etc. But he did play it at the rust in peace anniversary concert

[@Albee213]

I love watching Dave play and sing, his riffs never get simple becuase he is singing and in many instances they get more complicated... He may not be the best "singer" but he is one of the best singer/guitar players hands down. And think of the amount of drugs running through his viens at that exact moment.

[@ElekiSerket]

They really should play this song again. Though I guess it'd be kind of hard for Dave to reach those tones.

[@megadeth171souls]

mustaines's vocals at his best ..and such amazing performance by everyone ..Jeff Young is a brilliant guitarist too .!!

[@JM00237]

Jeff young is easily as good as any other megadeth guitarist IMO he copied Chris Poland’s style so well with this album

[@thomasfarmer1730]

Jeff Young was an awesome player

[@jumpfart666]

AWW....SMOKED TONS OF MARY JANE TO THIS JAM!!!! KILLER SHIRT DESIGN AS WELL!!!

[@KVX10]

I fuckin' love that part at the end when he shouts '' Prepare my friends to follow meeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE '' With a bit of reverb in the voice, make it sounds awesome.

[@guitarbo1]

I miss this lineup. Wish they could have lasted longer. We didn't know how good we had it with 80's metal!!!

[@TheGroumpfy]

Dave used to sing so well. Mary Jane is probably his best vocal performance by the way.

[@Moozer11]

I do love marty but i feel like jeff made some truly intense guitar solos too bad he couldnt have been along for another album

[@shredguitarob]

The song is Mary Jane and the video 4 minutes and 20 seconds long. (4:20)....hahah

[@d36class]

Robert Moore Mary Jane as in the buried alive 6 year old yup

[@MusicMan_1988]

Looking back at all the performances with this lineup Jeff Young was a pretty fuckin good guitarist, sure he is not Marty Friedman, but had some mad skills. He played all the lead parts very well, very underrated guitar player.

[@_ProTrax]

Dave is the king of upstrokes in rhythm playing

[@CliveBarnesMusic]

Couldn't agree more RIP was stunning....Young was an amazing guitarist that doesn't get near enough credit. Marty is obviously a great guitarist but you put it right RIP was amazing after that a huge decline happened. I saw Megadeth live for the first time April 91 on the Rip tour it was jaw dropping

[@TVAlistBR]

[@TheOne-fu1nh]

[@TheLarryburns84]

Dude. You don't have to be such a dick. I collect old shirts and I want an original. If I wanted to get a shirt made I would. Damn.

[@TheOne-fu1nh]

How i was a dick? I just said something obvious. Well the logic is this....you cant find a shirt from 1987 so print one. They did the same.

[@fearview]

[@ernestolr3625]

Por eso es la mejor banda y Dave es un genio.

[@Disc1]

@saberbazer Seriously, this song is so original, so good. Only dave can write songs like this. The thing with megadeth is, a regular band builds up a song with one or 2 riffs and adds instruments, first 1 guitar, than 2 guitar, than bass, than drums. Dave builds up a song by making 10 riffs, fit them perfectly up after eachother and even if you only hear the guitar it builds up just as epicly as if you'd add instruments more and more.

[@MegadethTestament]

[@davidlarue5713]

Tulsa, the fairgrounds, with Testament and Judas Priest. And again, a couple years later in Dallas, with Slayer and Anthrax I think. Both, were amazing performances, guys are great musicians, stupendous even. Keep on slappin' that bass, man!

Hey, I like Chuck. BTW Dave, I remember seeing a magazine article featuring you and you had a big gun collection, what was that all about?

David LaRue i got my guns everywhere i go, tote them around no matter whos watching. my rapper name is lil 2nd amendment 🔫🔫✈️✈️😤😤

[@vicrattlehead6386]

The coolest thing about Megadeth old songs that most of them has progressive structure. The song never go back to previous section. Holy wars, Black friday, Conjuring, Wake up dead, Bad omen, Looking down the cross, In my darkest hour, Mary Jane, Set the world afire, Ashes in your mouth etc If every parts of this songs are repeated twice, the song would easily 8-9 minutes long but would make it less interesting.

But thats why i like Broderick. i like that his solos are very technical, which allows u to challenge urself when trying to learn the solos, and when u nail them u can brag and say hey try playing this, knowing that they can't lol. Both Chris's are my favorite, they each have those technical solos, that arent too exotic like Marty's were

[@christoskourtidis6530]

new metal bands need a whole album to give 6-7 good riffs. Mustaine made those riffs for one fucking song

[@iya290]

@ibanezmancons It wasn't entirely Mustaine's doing. The band members were also pushing in that direction, just look athow Ellefson and Friedman changed their image. Also, if you look at the song credits you see a Marty and Ellefson being credited more and more often.

[@watt3256]

the flying M!!

[@landinization]

Actually, they stopped to playing this song since 1988, they only played this song on 1987 (yes, before it was released "So Far") and 1988

[@Rattlehead1818]

Yeah i agree. I think the best guitarists in Megadeth were/are Chris Poland, and Chris Broderick. Each of which i believe were better than Friedman, not to say he was bad either, but he couldn't replicate solos that weren't his, but Broderick can note for note, and Poland's playing is just really difficult and insane.

[@ubaldeth]

U cant dislike a song called mary jane period!

[@Erniepbms]

[@CliveBarnesMusic]

Hi...I don't look at it as far as album sales go, Yes Countdown sold more than any other album but that doesn't usually ever mean the best album for a band to sell more albums 100% of the time they have to compromise their sound as 'Deth did. And sorry but I don't agree that Youngs solos weren't unusual or different just listen to the first solo in 502 or the solos he does in My Darkest Hour.

[@zzzhuh]

@hegadem I think Friedman is over rated but even Dave said in a documentary a while back that Jeff couldn't do Poland's solo's. In my eyes I think Poland and Gar were the best fit for Megadeth but everyone looks at it differently.

This song always struck me as the oddball of the So Far So Good So What record. Musically, it's very unique, and almost doesn't fit any other Megadeth song. Lyrically, it's very abstract, only briefly following the theme of the witch 'Mary Jane'
