Metallica - (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth - Cliff´s last Bass-solo ever! Stockholm 1986-09-26 35 years 

damn, your very lucky

I saw him play 3 months before his death. I wish I could have met him.

@@ikon4255 you're

Imagine what that's worth now,hope you still own it.

@@HittokiriBattousai17 No one cares.

One fuking day before he died. Crazy sad1🥺

Ur right though

Certainly better than Kirk lol

Stevel Plays, good for you. Cliff is the guy to learn from.

Me too, we lost a genius too soon, imagine the crazy songs he would give us if he still alive

i also picked up the bass because of Cliff

How did you score an Aria Pro II?

@@josiahp.6960 well the guitar is from 81, and my father scored it back in 1983, and had it ever since. Second owner. Only modification is the output jack was changed to accept a microphone cable instead of a normal jack

I wish. I got stuck with this shitty rap generation. I’m absolutely all about Cliff and Metallica. Encouraged me to pick up bass and shread his basslines with an old version of his Aria Pro II bass and the usual wah and distortion

Fokin damn right bro!! Sad, but trué.

Cliff yes, Lemmy nah

lemmy was awesome but played bass more like a regular electric guitar but yeah he is the most awesome man in rock and roll

both rhythm guitar players that had the wrong instrument

Jason newsted needs to be in that category

The most interesting thing is that Cliff played this part in the beginning of his career in Metallica and at the end of it. Like he knew, that it will be his last solo..

he reused parts of his improvisation in different shows

Nope, those pictures were taken 2 years earlier in Stockholm December 12 1984 (after the show) .

@@kentp9195 thank you!

I thought that first fan was Jon Bon Jovi! ​@kentp9195

It will exist forever in Orion.

Maybe he was long. Metallica afterwards didn’t seem to stray far from the stuff he liked, even if it took a bit longer.

@@topsecret1837 I disagree. Cliff hated the face and fortune. The first album after his death they did a music video and second album after his passing they went full on producer and mainstream rock. Cliff was extremely against that stuff. Lars and James ran to the spotlight Cliff strayed away from it

Yep! The first one with Cliff! 🤘

@@kentp9195 you are a lucky man to have met the bass god

God can't bless himself

😥🤘🤘

rel

This is a dumb statement. James is an extremely talented musician and songwriter all the way around. Lars is even very good at arrangements and helping James write riffs from time to time despite the fact that he doesn't play guitar. Cliff was amazing and very unique and talented nobody quite like cliff but I don't think there was any sign at all or any reason to beleive he wouldn't have stayed with the band.

@@midnight347 cliff was too good for them. without cliff they wouldn't have gotten any better. mustaine wrote half of kill em all. cliff taught them about music. he def would have left. the other band members were about money and satanism, things cliff didnt care about. cliff wrote the beginning of fight fire with fire, thats how prolific he was.

@@miltontohd6448 where did they say they care about satanism?

@@Dankfrank3 in orion backwards. the 666 logo on the black album. many short clips where they make ref to satan. they def dont represent God

Metallica has never been known to be one of those satan bands. They didn't need a gimmick. They just wrote good songs. And they only would have gotten better at everything had Cliff not passed. Metallica got huge after MoP. There's no reason Cliff would have left at that time. They would have further built on their success, WITH Cliff. I don't know how you come to the conclusion that they embrace satan when they never show an opinion about anything in any of their songs. Their songs are just ABOUT topics, not for or against them. It might be a story (like One) or just telling you things that happen with drugs (Master of Puppets) or telling you something historic (like Creeping Death) or describing a hypothetical doomsday (Blackened), in each case they are neither for nor against any "message". In fact, there is no message. Just a depiction of the facts. They don't show or push any opinions, just simply lay it out there as it is. One isn't an anti-war song. Master of Puppets isn't an anti-drug song. Creeping Death isn't an anti-religion song. Blackened isn't an anti-earth song. They are just ABOUT those topics. You're the same kind of person to label Sabaton as Nazis because they have a song called Panzer Battalion and is ABOUT German things. You're just a derpy generic person having derpy and generic thoughts and opinions that need not be shared. Also, you over praise Cliff's talent level. Yeah, he was really good. But most of his compositions were extremely repetitive and redundant. Have you never broken down song structures? Call of Ktulu literally starts ABABABABABABAB, all in the same key, and Orion he plays the same bass line for 3 minutes straight. Some things you've never considered.
