Young/Holiday ...Lost Notes from Los Angeles

This limited internet event features 4 never-before-released songs from the YOUNG/HOLIDAY project. The four "heavy-blues-infused-rock" tracks were written and recorded against the backdrop of 1992, Los Angeles. These timeless compositions were directly inspired by and shaped in the midst of one of the most turbulent times in American history. Wide-spread unrest sparked by the O.J. Simpson debacle, Rodney King incident and the resulting Los Angeles Riots fuled the intensity of Jeff Young's post Megadeth works.

Young/Holiday Tracks:

1. Beggar's Day

2. Little Mexico

3. Peace

4. Flesh-n-Bone

Tracks 1-4 produced "in doubly" by Jeff and Pat Regan (Deep Purple, Blackmore's Night, Device)

BONUS Demo Track:

5. Ready for Action - WRITTEN IN MEMORY OF & DEDICATED TO PHIL LYNOTT OF THIN LIZZY. This demo track features Phil Soussan (Ozzy Osbourne) on bass and drums by John Valen (Judas Priest, Andy Taylor), Swedish singer Johan Sahlen and background vocals by Jeff Scott Soto

LIVE with Megadeth playing "Mary Jane" (Essen, Germany)
