Masterful Mystery Tour


Masterful Mystery Tour is the second album from Beatallica. It contains 12 tracks, which are mashups of songs by the Beatles and Metallica. As with their first album Sgt. Hetfield's Motorbreath Pub Band, this album contains re-recordings of songs from the band's EP releases A Garage Dayz Nite and Beatallica, plus six new Beatles/Metallica mashup songs. The album cover is a parody of The Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour and Metallica's Master of Puppets.
Beatallica released a video for the single, the band's first official full-length video.
With a slight nod to Metallica's 2 of One video release, the official video for "Fuel on the Hill" was released on March 5, 2009 along with another version entitled "Benzin auf dem Berg". Both were shot at the same time and planned as a dual release. "Benzin auf dem Berg" is the German film noir counterpart to "Fuel on the Hill".

    Production

On September 9, 2009, the album was released in Japan with two bonus tracks: live versions of "I Want to Choke Your Band" and "Revol-ooh-tion" from a concert in Milwaukee, WI.
On September 11, 2009, Masterful Mystery Tour was released by the German label Megapress. The CD contains a bonus track, Beatallica's cover of the J.B.O. song "Eine Guten Tag Zum Sterben". Also of note is fact that Beatallica recorded this cover song singing the German lyrics, making this the second song they have released singing in German. Beatallica's cover version of this song was also included on the JBO 2009 album I Don't Like Metal - I Love It.
