MD.45 History
The first (and only) album released was The Craving in Japan first on May 29, 1996 and in other nations on July 23, 1996.
Almost a decade later, while Capitol Records was releasing remastered versions of Megadeth's back catalog, Dave Mustaine chose to remaster The Craving. According to the liner notes, during the remastering process, it was realized that the vocal track and harmonica track were missing.
