Anesthesia Pulling Teeth Live Cliff Burton Solo (Metallica ) Kel's First Reaction

[@seanclarke6733]

Cliff: playing literal masterpiece James: 0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0 Camera man: wtf is James doing that’s so cool

[@Ashitaka1110]

I like to tell myself that Cliff was so great he fooled the camera man into thinking it was James on guitar playing what Cliff was.

[@jeisonhansson]

@@Ashitaka1110 I'm pretty sure thats exactly what happened

[@jayb7775]

Tell 'em to watch the left hand. even in 1983 video, you can tell that even their fingers don't move.

Imagine if cliff was alive today. R.I.P best metal bass player

[@davidsmith3482]

The band would be a whole hell of a lot better.. I very much dislike the skills of there current bassist.

Is Clifford still alive metallic would still be relevant but they suck now the music is horrible

RIP Cliff, gone way to soon. I can’t even imagine what the band would have turned into and (if possible) how even more amazing of a bass player he would have become! Cheers K&R!

[@donaldstone540]

He was 24 when he was killed. He would've only gotten better his playing would've matured. He composed parts of this solo in his teens. Thats why IMO hes the best that ever lived.

[@roybaker3945]

Somewhere I saw an interview with I can't remember if it was James or Lars when they were trying to form a band. He said, they were were walking down a street in California and heard this crazy guitar sound comming from an establishment then walked in to see Cliff shreading on the bass. Right then they knew they needed him. The next 2 were great, but couldn't hold a candle to Cliff. He was the Hendrix of the bass. RIP my good man.

[@strogaa]

I always thought it was when they saw a gig of Cliff's former band Trauma.

[@shawnc666]

Being 48 years old, I know of more 'non' Cliff Metallica than I do otherwise, but Cliff will ALWAYS be.....not just the bassist of Metallica.....But his potential was barely tapped into......it's fucking insane! I remember my first viewing of Cliff 'Em All on VHS......I cried my eyes out...….

Hey guys I was lucky enough to be among the last Americans to see Cliff Burton play they played here in the Hampton Coliseum in Hampton Virginia and then went to Europe and then of course the the rest is history

[@TheGrinder66]

Man this brings me back. So many what ifs had Cliff not passed away in that bus accident. Love your honest first reaction to it. Cliff was way ahead of his time and will forever be held in the highest standard in the metal community. #painintheask I’m gonna keep recommending Sylosis - Altered states Of Conciousness and Battlecross - Man Of Stone because I know you’re gonna enjoy them!

There will never be another bassist as great as Cliff. I was so lucky to get to see him live. A great talent taken way to soon.

[@davebcf1231]

Insane to think he was only 21 years old when this was filmed and how the history of Metallica could have been so different. Not to take away from what they've done in the years since, but he was just so talented. RIP

[@micahjared8082]

I often dwell on that myself... WHAT songs would of been done or made different .... What songs might exist What songs wouldnt have ever been made... WHERE would they be today, after all the probable different albums. Or might they have even broken up 4 years later??? And no real Metallica History lol RIP Cliff. You changed life as we all know it, thats alllllll I know for sure.

@@jimwells768 People are judging those albums even without listening them.They have got some quality stuff.Good riffs,a few of james' best vocal performances,emotion and definitely deep lyrics.A song or an album being not heavy doesn't mean that that's a bad song/album.

[@user-gx3cf2ot2q]

I think Cliff was the songwriting powerhouse of the band. Mop was the peak and ajfa wasn't bad but after that it's a nosedive imo. The black album was commercially a great album but for Metallica it was like they tried to be the heavy metal version of blink 182.

[@LageYouTube]

@@jimwells768 they would've definitely got into Load & Reload era faster since Cliff liked blues-kind of music more than heavy metal

[@aliciaencaderada1361]

I saw special about Cliff and they were talking to his dad. Cliff told his dad i get a headache playing. His dad said it's how you shake your head up and down so hard.

I always wondered that if Cliff was alive today if he would have cut his hair off for the Load cover album. I think not. Cliff would have been like y’all cut your hair I’m keeping mine. Plus I believe the Load album would have had a totally different sound and feel if Cliff was still alive. He was the driving force behind the epic Metallica sound from the first three albums. R.I.P. Cliff.

I always loved Cliff's thrashing...one of the best...he never stopped on stage. Him and Tom Araya (before neck surgery) were the two best bass player thrashers. I saw Cliff play Anesthesia live in 1986 - one of my all-time live highlights.

I love the harmonics he does at the very end. Its also hilarious how James just like, jumps in and immediately starts headbanging and kicking ass. The first true heavy metal band. Hard Rock + Punk.

True, but I think James was really the heart and soul of Metallica. In a way, you could replace any member but if James wasn't on vocals I don't think it'd ever be the same. His voice is Metallica imo
