Megadeth's Dave Mustaine on Rust In Peace
Christine Natanael, New York Review Of Records, Fall 1990
"AUGUST 24TH MARKS the anniversary of our last performance. Since then nothing's really mattered," emphatically states the enigmatic Dave Mustaine. That date was in 1988. It has taken two years to replace the players in the ever-changing orbit around the double Dave nucleus of Mustaine and Ellefson.
