First video ever recommended from you guys! That's so fckn Metal from Cliff, that independent rebel spirit is America! Awesome video, earned you a sub!
I like Faith No More and Billy Gould way more than Cliff Burton and Metallica.. Billy and Cliff were also friends and they both played Aria basses, Cliff had the endorsement deal with Aria and gave Billy an Aria Pro II Integra bass, he got it for him. I own both of their basses, Bill later switched to Zon basses and I have his Zon bass personally signed by him.
Yeaaaah you forget that alot of country musicians from the 70's n 80's was alot more progressive in their views. Like they were into healthcare and anti-war.
What about Dave being the founder of Metallica? 😄 Dave had some influence on early Metallica, sure. But Megadave isn't Metallica. "Cliff studied music in college,” Hammett said. “I had a grasp of music theory, thanks to Joe (Satriani, who was teaching Hammett ahead of recording Ride), but Cliff went the whole length and learned musical theory and everything. And he was way into harmonies." "James Hetfield said that Cliff Burton was the only member of the band who actually studied music theory." "He's featured as a Co-Writer in 10 out of 26 songs recorded. Plus one post-mortem (To Live Is To Die)." That's almost Half of their old catalog, that everyone loves. R.I.P. Cliff. 🍻
