Legacy
"Mechanix" became a live staple of the band during the 80's and 90's, and was the only song on the album to be featured on Greatest Hits: Back to the Start, a 2005 compilation record where fans voted on the track listing. Mustaine would sometimes perform the song in concert, differentiating between "their (Metallica's) way" (referring to "The Four Horsemen") and "our way".
With the exception of "Mechanix", songs from Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good! are rarely performed live. However, on October 21, 2010, the final date of the Jägermeister Music Tour in the fall of 2010, Kerry King of the thrash metal band Slayer joined Megadeth on stage at the Gibson Amphitheater in Hollywood, California to perform Megadeth's song "Rattlehead". This was the first time in 26 years that Kerry King has shared the stage with Megadeth since he played with the band during Megadeth's very first shows in 1984. Furthermore, thrash metal band Austrian Death Machine covered the song "Killing Is My Business...and Business Is Good!" on the second disc of the album Double Brutal.
