[HD] Metallica - Seek & Destroy [Woodstock 1994]

[@Birgir87]

Jason felt lucky getting a spot in Metallica. The truth is Metallica was lucky getting Jason, he's an absolute legend.

[@4kdemoscene]

I totally agree with you... Notice that after the 'black' album Metalica is just a garbage show. They are sooo dry sounding. These bad 'recordings' sound better than their new studio work... lol They just have no heart, Lars has always been a smuck... lol James thinks he had a hard life when he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Daddy paid for those Marshal amps. The unforgiven? pfft...

[@ReneParada]

They are both lucky to have met each other. But in all honesty, the loss of Cliff was the biggest what if in their legendary careers. It is undeniable that with the original four, they were already legends, not just in skill, but in artistry. The musicality was just insane. Cliff may have helped bring Jason and the 3 horsemen together and built the next chapter to their legacy. Looking back at it now, Metallica always and will forever have the burden of bringing the metal scene which they helped grow become what it is now, bringing new audiences to the fold. You cannot say that with other bands, no matter how hard they try to be so-called "pure" and "true". To be able to withstand all the hate and still be the legends they are now, all other bands should at least respect what the core of Metallica has done and given all these decades.

[@cryptoslimer8589]

@@Chesterd2 yeah cause they turned into fucking billionaires lol

[@colinmcdonald2499]

He was the best replacement imaginable for the unimaginable task of replacing Burton. He was hazed and treated raw by the original members of Metallica, even here Hetfield is a dick when he introduces the song and this is 1994. Trying to be funny maybe... But really just being a cute prick.

[@namikstudios]

Did you know that Rob has now been in Metallica for longer than both Cliff and Jason combined? Cliff = 4 years, Jason = 15, Rob = 20 and counting. He is just as much a part of Metallica as they are and deserves far more respect than this. You may be intending to praise Jason and express your admiration for him, which is totally understandable, but this has what I think is an unintended effect of diminishing and belittling Rob in the process. You really should check out some of there most recent stuff because Rob is a ridiculously good bassist and certainly fits the band. They never got around to playing this classic (in full) while Jason was with them, so it's a must watch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3eYgHuLjcagfLM

[@okbouncer24]

@@namikstudios What you say is very true! However, Jason was there when it counted most. Rob is good if not the best Bass player they have ever had. However, the stage presence is weak and not as exhilarating as it was with Jason. Cliff paved the way, Jason made Metallica what it is and Rob is carrying the torch.

[@Bobbie_Lee84]

I was 2 years old when Cliff pass, so i grew up listening Metallica with Jason instead.. for me he is the very soul of Metallica itself..

Leshyster Outrageously flawed logic...and you are gonna be a smart ass about it? Are you really under the impression that musical talent reaches it's peak in your thirties and then degrades from there? It's like you were born yesterday.

[@jfaulk5717]

Matt H - most things physical reach their peak in the 20-30’s. It’s science.

[@0trentt]

Even if Jason were in band nowadays, people will keep saying that the 90s was better The time comes for everyone, including Jason that stopped even earlier

[@baroqueguitarist5673]

Nice to see James compliment Jason to the crowd and show him respect and what seems like genuine friendship. We all know the stories and the hell he and the band went through after Cliff passed. Newsted is severely underrated. He had a monster tone and was beyond tight with his pick right from the beginning. His audition tape for Metallica was incredible. From the beginning his bass chops were insane and if it wasn’t for Metallica burying his bass lines on Justice alot more people might have taken notice of just how great a bass player Jason was in Metallica. No offense to Cliff but Jason made the band tight AF with a thundering bass tone. To my ear Metallica sounded so much better and tighter as a band once Jason joined. Jason’s early bass playing before the black album was incredible. Jason played great after the black album but instead of all the great technically difficult bass lines he wrote in his early days he started writing a lot simpler and groove oriented bass lines after recording with Bob Rock. Jason was a beast with that pick. But most of all the energy Jason brought to the live shows and the backup vocals he added made a HUGE difference in Metallica’s sound and live presence. As much as I love Cliffs creativity and virtuoso chops and style as well as Rob and even Dave Ellefson to me Jason was the best bass player in all the different lineups of the big four.

[@lukesalder8952]

I know I'm late but if you haven't heard the bass parts on justice they are so fing good

[@clemep]

If you ever saw Metallica live, you would definitely agree that Jason was the best...man that guy was a performer...

Same for Kirk. Coke doesn't make someone a good drummer or guitarist all on it's own and then reduce them to nothing once they sober up. What it would do though is make it easier for someone to perform at their maximum potential. It's just like coffee doesn't give someone the skill or ability to do their job, it just helps to motivate and get them "up for it".

They had been on tour for nearly 4 years supporting the Black album and up until the black album they we never really allowed to take an extended break for more than 1 month to keep their name out there.
