After Cliff’s death, in an interview, his dad said Cliff once came into the living room after a gig the night before complaining of a painful, stiff neck. He was oblivious as to how it could have happened, then the documentary crew cut to a shot of him head banging like he was doing at the beginning of this video. Lol
«Cliff would call home and complain about his neck hurting. I’d say, “My gosh. You’re bouncing that head up and down all the time. What does the human head weigh, eight or ten pounds? That’s the weight of a bowling ball bouncing up and down on your neck!”» Ray Burton.
Matt Taylor, Metallica: Back to the Front: A Fully Authorized Visual History of the Master of Puppets Album and Tour, Simon and Schuster, 2016, p.164.
All hail King Cliff! We were not worthy. 🤘🏻
Wow, Cliff Burton played like a lead guitarist. Incredible.
THIS is the Metallica I grew up on! I was 15 in 1985!
They weren't played on commercial radio. They didn't have videos on MTV. And if you saw someone in a Metallica T-shirt you knew they were a fan, and a kindred spirit.
RIP Cliff
Edit: I agree with Dave. And to be honest, I've always felt that Cliff Burton was the genius behind the musical arrangements and classical influence of the first 3 albums.
Well he was. Lol and thank god he taught that shit to Lars and James because James really took off with it and he became one of the greatest riff men ever.
I was at this concert, the wind just blew the sound all over the place, but how far they have come.....👍
Dave!! You're doing yourself a HUGE disservice by not checking out Death Magnetic by them. That album was a return to form, and the closest thing that we will ever get to this era of Metallica. Seriously. Look past all the bullshit you think you know or have heard from other people and just give it a listen. It was a damned fine album. Solos, good lyrics, and nothing like St. Anger. Don't miss out on a landmark album. For reals.
agreed Judas Kiss is killer
@@supern00b25 If by terrible you mean that it was an awesome, then I get what you are saying. Otherwise, I don't know what you are saying. That was an incredible album. There is no denying it. You can't logically say that it wasn't a really good effort from a huge band. You just can't. Sorry.
Un album tres sous estimé. Pour moi apres les 5 premiers albums et si il n y aurait pas tant de gros succes sur le black album,je pense que je mettrais death magnetic dans mon top 5. Il est super cet album. Et je suis meme tatoué Metallica. Ca fait depuis le black album que je suis fan car avant j etais trop jeune mais je connais tout comme si je les suivais depuis le debut. Metal up your ass🤘🤘🤘
Damn cliff is a legend. Often wonder how it would have gone if he survived.
I honestly think he would’ve been okay with Metallica’s direction after justice. They always used cliffs philosophy when making moves like that. Cliff was the one that said “we’re not here to play 1000 mph the whole time”
R.I.P Cliff Burton! Old Metallica (the first 4 albums) are easily my favorite
Agree and I know I know, but I at least add the Black Album. I just like it! 🤷😁
On this tour cliff Burton had about 40 t-shirts, 1 pair of blue jeans, and 1 blue jean jacket. That was his entire wardrobe.
I was 14 years old and the first album I bought from them. It was devastating to hear what happened in 1986, we all heard about it on a radio at school. This is the best lineup and era of Metallica.
Cliff’em all 🤘🏻😝🤘🏻
Ouch..."I wasn't even born yet."
And here I am watching this with nostalgia. I was at this very show, about to be a senior in high school.
Got to see Metallica for the first time with my buddy last year at Louder Than Life. I had such an amazing time🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
every single album ever by metallica had at least one great song
As a black female African with 5 kids living in rural areas, I appreciate your reaction
Same.
My most favorite Metallica song of all time!!!! Cliff is definitely the best bassist that my ears have had the pleasure of listening to. To think that I was only three months old when this was played. Making me feel old. Thank you so much for the reaction.
Cliff was an absolute legend..
Hail Blokes! I was born in England (Wimbledon) 7/5/69 (I am 52), my Mum was English as well (Hammersmith)...Surrey is in my blood. My Dad who was American was moving the family from Southern California to Northern California in the summer of 69, so he sent my mother and brothers and sisters on holiday to the UK.
We returned to our new house in the East Bay Area (Martinez, Ca) in November that year, so I only “lived” in England for the first five months of my life.
Growing up in the Bay Area put me right in the epicenter of the best music scene ever!! Exodus, Metallica, Testament, Death Angel, Possessed, Primus, Faith No More, Buckethead...should I go on? shit even Dead Kennedys and Green Day!
I was at this Day on the Green show, these shows in Oakland, Ca were the stuff of legend
I saw Metallica for the first time November 83’ in Berkeley, Ca. I was 14
🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
I saw Metallica six times with Cliff, met him a handful of times
Live in Russia 🇷🇺 is a wild concert. Over a Million people. That video is insane!!!!!!
They did that one a while ago
Greatest band in history!
Part of the reason that you don't have as many mega-groups is that there are so many bands out there now that the fanbase is extremely spread out. You can be a fan of metal today and have more metal bands to listen to now than you had bands of all genres combined in the 90s or before. A lot of people would rather listen to a more popular artist through platforms like Spotify and if they decide to buy CDs or other merch they will buy from the smaller groups instead.
Personally, I prefer the smaller venues when I go see bands perform. I live outside Chicago, so if I have to choose between crappy seats in an arena and dealing with the added security and parking and overpriced concessions vs taking a 20 minute drive to Joliet to see another band I like where I can actually get a beer and make my way almost to the stage, I'm going with the latter.
80's Tallica was something else. Definetly Fucking Mamoths
These guys were in their early 20's
Seen this tour with Cliff Burton
Even today ppl see Cliff play
And I see their jaws hit the floor
If you look closely at James, someone throws something at him when he starts singing and after that thing is thrown, he flips that person off
Yep! That happened to James quite a bit.
Forever Metallica...
I was exposed to metallica by my younger brother when Justice for All album came out. I was 18 then. That time was special I am so happy I was a teenager in the 80s. I do agree the 80s was their best music! When James had all that anger and intensity. He actually didn't get sober until I think the early 2000s. They are really awesome live. I saw them live when the black album came out. James got pissed off at the crowd because they were really lame the crowd at that show just was really quite for a metallica show.
Ive been jamming to Metallica since the early 80s.
At the 7:43 mark of your video you see a beer bottle fly by and Hetfield flips him off lol.
We didn’t have UA-cam and can watch them all the time. We hear from other people how great a show was and build some kind of folk lore behind it making it more exciting. Now you need a festive event to make IT exciting.
Not that it matters but the pregame college song was Enter Sandman at Virginia Tech. That said, For Whom the Bell Tolls is a staple of what we call "arena rock" here in the US.
There are few if any massive rocks bands emerging in the 2000's because radio is dominated by hip hop and pop music. What remaining rock stations there are only play the classics from the 60's-90's, and there is no MTV to break bands big. Also a huge segment of live music is now taken up by EDM and mega-DJ's. The very few rock bands formed in the 2000's--like Tame Impala--do draw big crowds but are still just arena bands unless playing on big Festival bills like Glastonbury and Coachella etc.
RIP Cliff one of the best ever 🤘
Foo fighters… still rocking
Master of Puppets next. Much more impressive.
puppets seatle 89 is insanity
Whiplash "live shit" 92 is even more insane imo
I fucking love Cliff man
Like a few others have suggested, check out the Death Magnetic album and the Hardwired album. No doubt you'll be impressed. A good reaction would be "Spit out the bone"
Cliff Em All
He looked older but cliff was only 23 here, he would die the next year at 24. lot of musicians who died a early death, so many looked older than their age, cliff, Kurt cobain , Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Ronnie van zant, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin.
Just about all the ones you named were murdered!
Thanks Darcy!!
When Cliff died James lost what gave him drive
Cliff made them beyond better
He made them legendary
'Saw that live about 10 years ago at a festival' were you at Sonisphere in 2011 by any chance when they headlined? I was at that festival and their set was fucking ace.
He fell out the window and the tour bus fell on him. It doesn't get more metal than that
This video was what got me into playing guitar. Ironically because of Cliff's performance not the other guys. I also play bass guitar but mostly 6 or 7 string electric guitars.
Metallica Halo on Fire. Off their last album so far. Tell me that isn't any good Dave. LOL!
I had the shirt that James is wearing when I was about 17. My vice principal told me I had to either turn it inside out or go home and change. I went home and stayed there until the next day. :)
If you recognize the design, you might understand why my v.p. had an issue with it.
There was only one bad album St Anger the rest are hall of fame material
Springsteen and the E Street Band are still selling out arenas and stadiums around the world. They were going to do a World Tour this year until the new strain of COVID. They are massive in Europe.
That proves their point. No NEW bands are huge any more. Only the remnants of the older times.
React to master of puppets in Manchester 2019. It was epic.
Hemingway was never so profound until he became a Metallica song.
I love being a douche: it was Donne not Hemingway.
Wind what a nightmare to sound
There’s a simple reason why there aren’t nearly as many bands anymore .. talent and work.
My daughter used to argue that with me until I used this analogy.
Bands I cRappers
I-------------------
I
I
Imagine an even and equal scale.
Sing? Both sides
Lyrics? Both
Instrument? Left side
Instruments? Left
Read music? Left
Write music? Left
No auto tune? Left
Bands need talent, skill, hard work and literally years of practice. cRappers need a computer to make the music for them that simply repeats the exact beat for the entire song, auto tune and THEN the ability to rap.
YES the cRap takes talent and practice. BUT that’s where it stops. No one anymore wants to work hard. They all expect instant TubeYou fame & fortune.
The United States rules and has always ruled, heavy metal! ...... Metallica no other country can compare or come close!
James,Kirk et Lars savaient que Cliff etait un diamant brut car non seulement il a fallut qu ils s y prennent a 2 reprises pour le convaincre mais c est eux qui ont demenagé leur local dans la ville ou etait Cliff. ❤
Ok so Adam Levine said this and was massacred on social media. But it is true you don’t have huge rock bands that everyone knows out there. The solo artist is way more popular now. You don’t really see groups definitely not groups who are bands ie play their own instruments has lead guitar drummer etc
Yeah but honestly, popularity is overrated. Theres still bands & groups around absolutely killing it and making a solid living, even if they're not "no. 1" on the charts
I think there is a hunger out there for it but record labels would rather appeal to the lowest common denominator.
I am subbed and apologies if I missed it down the line but how have you not done Master of Puppets? (track not the album)
Cliff em all
To think Cliff had a lot of those riffs written before he joined Metallica
Cliff em All 🤘
@@ghost500e Ha!
who were they opening for in this show?
The video of them in Russia looked insane
Written in 83
I so dig old background metal ressonaince.
Metallica was young and hungry
Im disappointed one of their nicknames wasn't Metalliquor 😂😂😂
oh yeah!
Cliff played Lead Bass imo, man is an absolute monster and i aspire to be on his level
Love how you say Cliff is
Not Cliff was
He's been gone for 35+ yrs
And he's still a frigging beast
Can I have an Amen brother
@@michaelscott9974 Amen, good riffs are immortal
Oh yeah!!! 🤘
Total pain giro got
I l m
State of popular music is so sad right now. It’s mostly pretty people who can dance. They don’t play any instruments or even write their own songs. They are entertainers, not musicians.
You guys should still check out Orbit Culture… They are what Metallica would be if they were heavy and modern!
Metallica plays current material on tour and not get stuck in nostalgia
Hardwired is owke album to be fair,
Spit out the bone live ore studio version is a hard song man
Oakland, SF Bay Area before internet. This would be a billionaire’s house party for a hundred of his computer programmers if held in 2020. Average people in that crowd. I knew a guy who paid $125k for a house in SF in 1986.
It's amazing as you said that there hasn't been a takeover by megabands now, but sadly its the fault in my eyes, of popular culture....the last great movement that pushed pop culture was Nu-Metal, which gave us Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, SOAD, Korn, Slipknot....before that you had Grunge and Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden etc, then Hair Metal and Thrash in the 80s: GNR, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Motley Crue, Van Halen....then the early 80s and 70's you had Boston, Journey, REO Speedwagon, The Cars, Fleetwood Mac, Heart....earlier you had Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Deep Purple, Rainbow, Motorhead....the issue now is go up to your average teenager, and not only will they not know who any of these are, because they're too busy on TikTok, but they have no music scene beyond what MTV puts up, or what they see as a trend on social media.....I feel so lucky to have grown up with both Grunge and Nu Metal, and with parents who lived for the music of their generation....sadly, that is all dead now
Very out of touch
Well said.
🤘
react to "Metallica: Master of Puppets (Manchester, England - June 18, 2019)" already
Halestorm has been doing good from what I hear.
Any good UK bands you guys recommend? Always been curious about some of them.
Depends what type of music buddy, carcass and napalm death for the heavy stuff
@@bigmatt1994 I'll have to look into those too, to clarify i just mean just like normal rock maybe something similar to Metallica or ACDC or just a bunch like that really.
@@Northbravo forget those then as they are super heavy. Try motorhead or iron maiden.
Iron maiden album fear of the dark would be a good place to start
Ok, serious question, does everyone who loves AC/DC love Metallica and visa versa? Both are my husband's favorites and I've noticed it seems to be a thing. Just wondering.
@@NikkiCox81 I think it's a case of you start on ac/dc then move onto metallica. I did and I love them both alot
When Metalica was cool 🤘
RIFF IN PEACE KING CLIFF 🖤
So you’re telling me the guy on the right isn’t Ricky Gervais
Check out meatloaf rip. Paradise by the dashboard lights
Ahem Les Claypool king of bass 🤟
Get some Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers on here
Now See live in Moskau 91
No 1 will ever beat metallica
7:26 - “There’s no one out there that plays bass like this anymore”
Ah ye of a forgotten memory... Les Claypool of Primus 😂 While Cliff was/is a far superior bassist, Les would probably be the closest.
tool is the only "modern" group doing that these days
Cliff Burton is god
Their last album was alright
Ran out of things to say? You must have stopped listening for awhile. The whole Load/Reload era despite the whiners was fantastically written. Give Bleeding me or The Outlaw Torn a shot. As for newest stuff… Give Halo on Fire a shot off of their newest Album. It’s amazing.
Slipknot, Rammstein, System of a Down, all bands that have been around for a while at this point. Not a whole lot of up and comers that are at that level, unfortunately.
Why haven’t you reacted to Metallica in the Soviet Union Live?!!!! “Mega-star”….watch Russia React to Metallica live!! (Starter point)
F’n helicopters and fields full of fans in Russia
Rammstein is still packing arenas. But Cliff Burton was the best. Any bassist that can play like he's lead guitar. 🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥
The one great band right now is Five Finger Death Punch
Iron Maiden is still selling out every night
Other than a couple of country acts like Zac Brown Band
Music has falling from Grace
Look up Robert Trujillo bass and his version is much better
Typical Lars Ulrich, drumming too fast. He could never keep a proper beat in a live show.
Se
the sound quality on this is horrible. i think Mike and Daz want to stick to not music reactions... what ever happened to you guys each picking one reaction and seeing who gets best likes? theres no mega bands anymore coming out because they do not have the talent to do it.. and the fan base does not have the money to pack arenas I assume? only the past bands are still filling stadiums. Sammy Hagar and George Thorogood are going out on a big tour this summer, that should be great!
As a punk rock fan, heavy metal seems so cartoonish when it comes to their lyrics and hair and everything. But they are badass musicians I’ll give them that.
and many metalheads think the same about punk, except the badass musicians part, lol.
the hair was a product of "glam rock". But I'm not sure what kind of cartoons you like to watch man.
Not made a decent album the last 15 years?!?!?? Shut your mouth, Dave. I’ll not allow that blasphemy in here!!
