@@loonysoul6602 he's a beast with basses. He's my idol

i went to the m72 show both nights this week and i was thinking the exact same thing. shit would be so awesome to see

Definitely ❤️ 😊

But there wouldn't be One

@@D4ddel what are you talking about 💀

​​@@wonkycodeinee He is saying the song One wouldn't exist because he died after the Master of Puppets album and One came after. I disagree, but that is where he is coming from

Don't forget the coveted helicopter!

All three of them are great bassist

Didn’t know you listened to Metallica

What content do you make

It has 420 likes I don't wanna ruin it

Dude it’s like the soul of him and metal/music is colliding. His entire being put into that performance, and the song is sadly very ironic bc what happened to him. You’re very right that it’s beautiful

​@@slick8038nah. That Just happens because of the way those old cameras used to work.

@@emithefreak6631 that's an effect added later. no reflection gives a lighting strike

Tad je sunce drugačije grijalo.

I honestly like this version so much better. Feels so much more metal.

i wish i could like this more than once

*John Patitucci intensifies*

It would be a better answer "check me"

So sick

@Music Fan276 Got you bro !

Thats so true, first time i heard pulling teeth on kill em all at age 7 i thought it was the lead guitar and kirk was shredding it....... When i found out it was cliff..... Mind blown completely! Your comment by far is the best one on here 👍👍 \m/

@Music Fan276 That liar, he drank it

Amen

when your band needs a rythm bassist cause the bassist just became leadbassist

To the man who turned the bass into a guitar

ai genereated ahh comment

There are enough examples of cliff doing a solo and the camera not filming him.

@@alessiodematteis5531 the metro 83 is a amazing one

Yes indeed

An electric bass is a guitar….

@@alexcoronabut it’s a bass

@@user-gv6ge5oe2l but it's a bass guitar

The bass is a guitar. But I know what you mean

I knew what he meant immediately but ok

Not everyone, he's dead life goes on. The band did very Successful live shows over the years. 💯💯

Cliff and Kirk, the unhateable duo.

@@dremcghee6578 Well yes, your statement is true, not everyone probably liked him. But amongst most Metallica fans, overall everyone likes Cliff the most when compared to other members of the band. I personally like all members of Metallica, the only thing that I don’t like about them is how badly they treated Jason after Cliff’s passing. But yes they absolutely did many spectacular live shows after Cliff’s passing. No one could ever replace Cliff, but Jason did bring a lot to the table especially with live shows during his time in Metallica.

You lucky man!

What was the show like?

@@dleifteHsemaJ That’s awesome, buddy.

You're lucky

Lol

Cliff was so good... he played bass like a lead guitar!

That's fair since he doesn't have a mic

Hi cliff! WWWWOOOOOAAAAAABBBB

Bass in his hands is not noise

RIP Ray Burton

Sons?

Cliff had an older brother Scott whom died at the age of 16. That's when Cliff promised him that he'd become the best bassist he can be and so he did

cliff replies with his bass of course

@hell no that aint cool a lot of metal musicians do.

@hell no that aint cool metal is often inspired by classical music. Scientists found out that the average listener of metal and classical music are both the most intelligent

@@dryder7078 that sounds like the most ridiculous facebook headline post i’ve ever seen bud.

Exactly! They were right in their prime, mid 80s.

I mean at the very start Lars is out of time when he first jumps in

​@@Ok-pj2uv still way better than what he does now... he really stopped caring at some point.

I was born in 1993 and I'm crazy to them till now

Sad but true

Fkn facts

I've watched just the intro of him so many times

Fuckin'-A! Ain't that the truth.

🤘Cliff is a fucking legend

Totally agreed dude!

and what's funny is Robert is the best in the band nowadays.

shut up you idiot. james in an increible guitar player an insanely creative, and kirks solo's are some of the best of all time. fucking iiot.

lol have you listened to shortest straw? solo is like a guitar center in sundar morning... fucking whammy tricks killed the overall good song.

Körmendy Mátyás go back to bed buddy

Antony Quigley best comeback ever

Words can't tell how accurate that description is.

Your parents sound cool as hell

That’s deep

That gave me goosebumps reading that.

You got some great parents there!

Just now watching it it was followed by a more current rendition and it just sounded hollow. Impossible to capture that early power.

The very best.

Fucking A!

@@DaveS71 early power!

They were so hungry and noone plays the intro like Cliff. Perfection.

I’ll never get over how cute James introducting Cliff is compared to the badassery of the Cliff playing 😂. It’s like whiplash.

James :"Hi Cliff!" Cliff: *Shred Noises*

And then James casually walks away with a beer 💀

This is a great comment. I’ve seen too many videos where the ENTIRE comment section is arguing if Rob, Jason, or Cliff was Metallicas best bassist..

@Motherr Pluckerr If he wasn't any better than his bandmates, he wouldn't be appreciated. And because Cliff wasn't an ordinary bassist, he was a soloist.

He knew he had a supremely creative virtuoso playing bass, which was something unheard of in the thrash metal scene at that time.

James respects Cliff so much.

@Motherr Pluckerr that title goes to Jaco

@@williamkoscielniak820 Yes. He wasn't the "best bassist", he was "best bassist from thrash metal " in my opinion

Your brother is a lucky guy. When did he see them with Cliff?

​@@Sage.the.red_foxI have a friend who's 57 who saw Metallica perform in Michigan in 1985 when he was 18.

@@Nominay he must be lucky, wish I could have been there.

I saw him perform in his college in a time machine

Opening up for Ozzy Osbourne at the Nassau Coliseum in 86.

I mean it is his job

​@@scabberdabber2597 some of the newer pro-shoots don't capture NEARLY as much as this one guy did Miss all the playing, musical cues, hype moments and even some fucking more It's a real bummer, as music is all about performing and mastery and entertainment I can't be entertained, when i'm looking at a guitarist's butt, or bass player hitting same root notes for like 20 seconds straight (Sorry for a rant, it's a issue for me)

Makes sence

They also rehearse before they go live, you know.

Except they completely failed to miss Kirk starting his solo in the beginning of the song and it took a while to pan over.

Crowd like that? His adrenaline must have been seriously cooking.

Why shoudn't he.

He always had fun onstage.

Won't die as long as I keep jamming to good music

yeah bro

Only because of Cliff !!

"thick ass" ( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆)( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆)( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆)

no

me likey

I have wondered myself how he could bend so effortlessly, after some research I found that he was using light-gauge strings for that purpose.

Cliff had complete control on his Bass.

John White lol i watched this vídeo many times, just noticed this now XD

While nowadays, the concert would stop, and the person throwing stuff would get kicked out & prosecuted.And then the concert would continue nice & lovely with all the children seating in their seats...

good luck kicking out someone in a concert of 1.5 mil.

id kill to of been at this concert, ending in a riot, best concert of all time

John White LOL I never picked that up until now. James was such a badass back then...R.I.P to those days. :/

Come on bro, give Lars a break, it’s only been practicing for 80 years, I’m sure he’ll get the hang of it soon

🤣

Totally agree 💯

i thought it was fuzz

@@sluvarhedgehag well its a big muff distortion

Djordje Oljaca by ~1984 cliff had started using an ibanez tube screamer

Cliff's awesome distorted tone makes me wish that Rob would tweak his. Anytime they perform "For Whom the Bell Tolls" or "Orion", Rob's tone sounds so weak. He needs to crank up the volume and distortion like Cliff, ffs.

@@Incog2k6 yeah, I agree. Also, even if Robert wants to stick to a clean tone he should *at least* be using a wah that isn’t super robotic sounding

knew what was coming :D

Great observation

So true !!

didn't leave anything for the editor to do. he/she is a legend

Obviously he knew the song n knew where to shoot this live!

without missing a note!

Damn he’s so badass he can still play

Super Saiyan Monkey didn’t saw this 😂😂😂 I’d like to be flippe off by James

It was Axl rose

Downflipping

If we are talking metal then at worst cliff Burton would be 2nd best behind Steve Harris of iron maiden but imo he was the greatest bassist of all time

@@alphawolf8503 Steve Harris is good but in no way comparable to Cliff Burton

@@devond8772 I think they are comparable but cliff is better I fully believe that if he didn't die when he had he would have been the best bassist of all time no competition

Legends never die!

@@alphawolf8503 imo Cliff is only seen as better because he was far ahead of the game and created sounds that no one has heard from a bass

❤

Lovely!!!!

Me too😭

miss him so much. my fave band of all time but he passed before i was old enough for concerts..:(

@@rockarolla3199 I was born 19 years after he passed

this comment is a gift

i was there

I'm here paying my respects too. Though it's definitely not the last time I'll be watching this video this week!

Ffs my dad forgot to bring my Metallica shirt cause I'm going to head bang while listen to "To Live Is To Die".

Will always pay my respects to this legend \m/

And so am I!

Wtf r u talkin about Bass is a Guitar doofus

@@gaiusjuliusceasar5180 think he means like an electric guitar

@@gaiusjuliusceasar5180 no, it's not, although similar, they're too different instruments

As a bassist, I aspire to come even close to his skill

@@gaiusjuliusceasar5180 no, a bass gives depth to a song, the sound differences between a guitar and bass are big

I consider him the #1 bassist even tho I’ve heard he was ranked the 4th greatest bassist in the world even tho his bass sounded like it could wake up Cthulhu when he would shred

@@goldenwolf8081 the 4th? Pretty sure hes 8th best

@@VinCostanza still he was probably the #1 bassist in the 80s no doubt cause he was coming up with stuff like anesthesia,Orion,call of ktulu or even the intro on for whom the bell tolls

Lists are retarded because there are so many great musicians of all disciplines. Even the "Greats" hate lists because they are fans of each other and Metal is the tightest community of Genres regardless of its' countless subgenres.

Nah. Les Claypool exists you know

Exactly! I keep coming back to watch this video over and over again because it’s so cool!

@@repro8288 Cheers man 🤘

Can i suggest the 2nd stop at "Seattle '89?"

Could have been? Are you serious bro? Metallica is the best Rock Band in the world and of all times. And I say Rock because Metal is part of Rock... What you said is like saying... Ohh Imagine how great Eminem could have been if he would still be named Slim Shady. Cliff was one of the greatest bass players of all times, but you're disregarding the great work that Jason Newsted and Rob Trujillo have done and still does (Rob's case)... Don't forget that the biggest albuns came after Cliff's death. But I can agree if you say that Metallica only came this far because they had Cliff at the early stages of the band because James knows nothing about music (well, you know what I mean, he learned throughout his career... Cliff teached him how to compose harmonics and other stuff, etc) and Lars sure knows about drums but that's it.

Jason Newsted and Rob Trujillo did absolutely great for metallica after Cliff, and I still love and respect Metallica, but if Cliff didn't lose his life, I mean Metallica could be bigger and better than the Metallica now.

Eddy Parera They are still good, but after Cliff died they lost something. Jason Newsted is a great bassist, but he was useless in Metallica (compare his playing on Metallica albums to his playing on Flotsam and Jetsam's "Doomsday for the deceiver"). Robert is great and I hope that Hardwired to self destruct will be good. And I don't think Load, ReLoad or St. Anger (fuck this shit) were their biggest records. Black Album was, but it's not as good as Ride the Lightning or Master of Puppets. And I wouldn't say Metallica is the best rock band of all time (I like Black Sabbath more), but that's an opinion.

It make me wonder what would've happened when the black album turned up or even AJFA? Cliff drew a line in the sand and would not cross it. He would've never let them wear makeup, cut their hair, try for mainstream success. It is really intriguing to think some of the music that would've kept coming from the group with him.

First of all, Jason didn't play a big part in Metallica as James didn't let him have much influence on the band (he almost composed nothing except a few songs) and that is why he left the band. They didn't make the same mistake with Trujillo fortunately. Secondly, no, metal isn't part of rock. If it was so then Rock would be part of Blues and Blues would be part of African Music. Metal takes its roots in Rock but took its distance by using structures from classical music. And if I had to be picky, I would say Metal comes from Hard Rock which is pretty much different that standard Rock. And Finally : Cliff was one of the main composer and inspiration of the band. With his death you can clearly see how the band changed his style. So yeah his survival would have make Metallica very different.

Eduardo SzéLL yeah man. Ever since he blew out his vocal cords, cliff passed, Lars lost his touch, it just hasn’t been the same

Eduardo SzéLL and Kirk doesn’t quite have it in him anymore

@Anne Banks, look at a modern slayer or exodus concert

Not with anger but with real passion for what he does

Exactly

@@user-up4zp6qb3g Randy was a guitar player, my friend =/

People always compare others. Cliff Burton was the Cliff Burton of bass. He had his own thing going for him. Nuff said.
