Ron McGovney's '82 Garage Demo

Ron McGovney's '82 Garage demo is a demo tape by the American Thrash Metal band Metallica that was never officially released, but the tape found wide circulation in full and partial versions. The demo contains two original songs, "Hit the Lights" and "Jump in the Fire" along with six cover songs. These include one Sweet Savage cover, a Savage cover and four Diamond Head covers. "Hit the Lights" and "Jump in the Fire" were later released on the No Life 'til Leather demo and eventually made it onto the band's debut album, Kill 'Em All. Most of the covers can be found in the band's much later album, Garage Inc. The demo was recorded in Ron McGovney's garage on March 14, 1982.
