Original: (Newsted had previously participated on the cover album The $5.98 E.P.: Garage Days Re-Revisited EP which was his first work with Metallica.)
Simplified: It shall be said though, that they recorded and released The $5.98 E.P.: Garage Days Re-Revisited, which only include five songs covered by Metallica, but it is often not counted as a Metallica album, as it only contain five cover songs.
