@@matutegamer9255i think kirk made the bass solo at the end. They just split the solo in two. Kirk played the first half and cliff played the latter half.
If you want to assess how good of a songwriter Jason truly was, check out Flotsam and Jetsam, especially their debut album, Doomsday for The Deceiver. Jason was the main songwriter on that record and that album is truly a thrash masterpiece.
Cliff was taken too soon. It would be so cool to see him in the band still. Don’t get me wrong, Jason and Rob were and are great, but Cliff was on another level. RIP
Regarding My Friend Of Misery: Thats only half true. He wrote an massively more complex intro riff (you can here him play it 1-3 times live) and Hetfield himself then cut it down to this what we are right now hearing.
We all know that. He played more than 3 times, as you can see it was regularly played during 1991 until 1999, there is a demo of it in riff tapes as well.
That riff that Robert wrote on The Day that Never Comes is the highlight of that entire album for me. They should’ve made that the main riff of the song. The chugging is so sick.
@@BudderChicken101 To be honest that riff has always been the lowlight of the song for me. It sounds like the dah dun dun dun, dah dun dun dun part in for whom the bell rolls intro, with a tail off that ruins it
Andriy Vasylenko has a video (forgot which one) where he speculated that not only did Cliff write the distorted guitar riff in the call of ktulu that fits with Mustaine’s riff but also the harmony at the end
I've read at Revolver Magazine "10 facts of And Justice for All you didn't know" that according to James Cliff wrote the main riff and the "built up" riff from To Live is to Die. Also Orion is 80% Cliff at least. He wrote the bass intro, the bass bridge and the entire interlude. The main riff was added by James using the chord progression that Cliff used in the bass intro. And the galloping riff was a guitar version of the bass bridge.
In to live is to die Cliff made a demo which became the interlude after implementing it to the guitar and probably the intro, there is a video of James's tapes from 1986 where James is jamming maybe with Cliff and it's the intro
Клифф оставил наследие, которое пытаются постичь в процессе совершенства игры на бассу. Джейсон показал, что трэш-метал и хард-рок звучит и качает на бассу также мощно, как и на гитаре. Роб...ну, он показал, что можно играть на бассу и быть мемом :)
There are some errors and some omissions: -That part of "CALL OF KTULU" is written by Mustaine, Metallica never gives credits for guitar/bass solos, in all likely Cliff wrote the breakdown at minute 6:56 of the song. -On "FOR WHOM" Cliff didn't wrote just the intro but also the iconic main riff at 0:55 of the song. -On "FADE TO BLACK" Cliff wrote the iconic breakdown/bridge (the rest of the song is James and the outro is Kirk). -James have confirmed that Cliff wrote the main heavy riff of "TO LIVE IS TO DIE" during the MoP sessions and they build the song around that as a tribute (the melodic interlude is James).
There are also ommissions with Robert Trujillo -The riff from "Lords of Summer" that appears in the deluxe edition of the "Hardwired" album -Some riff of the "Screaming Suicide" song out of 72 Seasons
@@MiguelGutierrez-vs9zu I think that on "Sceaming Suicide" is that cool bridge that begins with just the syncopated guitar riff and than the gallop bass came sweeping in. But the intro also sounds like something wrote by Robert.
Apparently, Cliff was the exception, and he was credited not only for the harmonized part, but also for "leading bass"... whatever that means. Which is kinda ironic given that Kirk wasn't credited for quite the same on RTL the song
@@maddiethemadovich It's true that in the lyrics booklet under the list of writers for the song (Hetfield,Ulrich,Burton,Mustaine) there's the line "Lead Bass by Cliff Burton" but that has nothing to do with the credits. He's credited only because he wrote a specific section of the piece and the climax of the song with the harmonized guitars before the return of the intro arpeggio is in his classic style (like the climax before the outro on "Creeping Death" or the intro and the coda of "For Whom The Bells Tolls"). If it was only for his solo behind Mustaine's riff there would' be only the tag "Lead Bass by..." without his name in the credits.
I'm very sure jason, cliff and rob wrote more, being credited as a songwriter doesnt mean u wrote a riff, lars hasnt made any riff and is always a songwriter, jason is credited in only 3 cause he barely helped write the songs, u can see it in the black album documentary, it was only james, lars and bob rock, and lars never made a riff, he just helped write the song structure
Wdym Lars hasnt made any riff? Surely 1 riff from the 113 songs Metallica has wrote and he got credited totally makes sense!!!!!!! I mean yeah, AJFA has some of Jason style from Flotsam and Jetsam, not just on Blackened.
WAS THAT INAMORATA LIVE IN THE BACKGROUND? PLEASE I NEED TO KNOW I CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE IVE BEEN WAITING DAY ONE SINCE THE ALBUM CAME OUT FOR THEM TO PLAY IT LIVE ITS THE BEST MODERN METALLICA SONG
I've already picked an error. The start of ride the lightning. Cliff didn't write that. Lars did. It's like the only thing he's actually written on a guitar.
@@Ryu_Ake Yeah I saw it after I wrote my comment and went back through. But harmonies or no harmonies, and text or no text , you can't take the only riff Lars has ever wrote away from him and give it to Cliff.
Cliff didn't write the intro for Damage inc, but he came up with the idea to use it. The song is called Komm Susser Tod (Come Sweet Death) by Bach, he played it, then reversed it so he wouldn't get copyrighted.
@@Ryu_Ake maybe. I looked for anything about Lars playing guitar - or anything. All I found are videos that clearly shows he can't play. 🤣 Apparently that's how Glenn Danzig "wrote" some of his songs, too.
@@Ryu_Akewhen writing AJFA, James and Lars were kinda battling each other. For example, in One James wrote the "Machine Gun riff" and I can picture him saying "let's see if you can come up with something like that". Or in the title track Lars wrote the drum version of the main riff so James had to come up with something
