Great observation. This was the pure joy of the metal -- pure and unfiltered. No security goons between audience and band. The good old days. You don't know it when you see it. And that's true of life.
Godammit! Cliff starts SHREDDING! and the camera zooms in on James and Kirk chugging away on open E strings like cavemen who found some guitars. The world just wasn't prepared for Cliff Burton.
In the start of the video, cliff is ending "anesthesia pulling teeth" and starts "whiplash" If you want to see the full version of Cliff solo, search "Anesthesia Pulling Teeth Live Metro 1983"
@@wongway40 cliff was the only one that could do that with a bass guitar not an electric guitar which is why I consider him the greatest bass player to have ever lived! He had so much talent! Rest In Peace cliff burton 🕊🕊🕊💖💖💖
James grew so much as a frontman over the first few albums. From the way he sings to the way he moves, he totally transformed into the fearsome, chest beating powerhouse you see on the Justice gigs.
LOL! I saw them that year in California and he didn't look quite so stunned, (Bambi in the headlights!)but I did try to stay right in front of Cliff the whole time. Obviously he was the best musician in the band then and I love bass. It was actually cool when James would point at you though while you were "thrashing all around". AHAHA
I am 60 years old today, and am still headbanging and air guitar playing to this song, while thinking how immensely grateful I am to Metallica for having been a part of my life for all these years. I might age but this music certainly doesn't, it just blows me away every time.
Milsurp Mike Channel instead it shows james and kirk playing one or two notes the whole show cliff would shred that bass and headbang he was only 24 when he passed away imagine if he was in Metallica all these years
That's awesome. I would've paid anything to see Cliff play. I was pretty young when this album came out. Kirk is such a great guitarist. There's so much life in this performance
@@scpfoundationtm1249 Bold of you to assume that these guys waited. They just pulled the balkanic kid scheme and probably started drinking when they were like 10 lmao.
Whiplash is a relatively common injury that occurs to a person's neck following a sudden acceleration-deceleration force that causes unrestrained, rapid forward and backward movement of the head and neck, most commonly from motor vehicle accidents. The term "whiplash" was first used in 1928. The term "railway spine" was used to describe a similar condition that was common in persons involved in train accidents prior to 1928. The term "whiplash injury" describes damage to both the bone structures and soft tissues, while "whiplash associated disorders" describes a more severe and chronic condition.
I have whiplash related injuries now, like arthritis and bones spurs and slipped discs. Do your shoulder and core strengthening my dudes! It helps to balance out the stress on your neck. Take it easy with the repetitive headbanging, don't do stage dives and try not to get in motorcycle and car crashes. Protect your spines and bones, I started having trouble before I was 20 and I'm in constant pain now. Not to be a drag, just sayin'.

Growing up in the Modesto California area and graduating high school during the early 80's I remember listening to a cassette made at home by a friend and I loved it instantly! I loved it so much I finally got a copy for myself, I remember playing it in my Ford Pinto (of course) so much until it was finally stolen and even today I can still feel the pain from it being taken from me! Great memories all...
What a courage to not have been born in the 60's or 70's to have met this magnificent band in the 80's and see them in person when they were still young.
what a time to be a headbanger! WHAT A TIME! I can't figure how good was to be on these concerts, with a TON of legends playing in the same night! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
My favorite Metallica era, everything is already in place, the passion and charisma of James, the genius of Cliff, I like this masculine energy ah yes that's it this energy of fire and volcano...
I live in the DFW area. And @ 10:00 we have Mandatory Metallica. And on the 3rd and last song they played this. OMG ! I haven't heard this in years. 1985 I was 16. I was in my car and just turned the corner of my street. Needless to say I kept driving. Loved them then love them now. 97.1 THE EAGLE ! ! METALLICA still #1 ! ! 🤘
Seriously one of the most epic bass solos I've ever heard. And what are the cameramen focusing on: James and Kirk playing the same chords repeatedly. Sadly this was a time when the singer and/or guitarist were usually the main focus of the band. Happy Birthday Cliff!!!
I was so puzzled at the beging when a there was a guitar solo but James and Kirks hands werent moving. Then I rember that Jesus himself was just to the right of James shredding the fuck out of the bass
In 83 I met this Puerto Rican kid from Elizabeth NJ in this damn rehab. He was big into Black Sabbath. He tells me of a new band Mettalica. Said they were playing in Jersy City. So I met him there
Still my favorite live performance of Whiplash, that fucking bass intro man, that to me is why Metallica in 1983-86 had three guitarists, two leads, on rhythm.
He's got no fold back speakers. Its *very* hard to sing in key if you can't hear yourself, unless your super experienced and at this point they where still pretty inexperienced.. Your brain just doesnt know what pitch your voice is at, and his ears are getting bashed in by the band playing at a zillion decibels.If you put an in-ear monitor or a set of fold back speakers in front of him, he'd be nailing it.
Casper barbnçon He never hated them, didnt like much but he did love this song. Kirk said he was at a Seattle show, screaming on the side for them to play Whiplash.
I cannot freaking believe how tight they were back then. They still are, but this is something truly special. Sounds just like the studio version but with more feeling.
Two camera men, and both are focusing on two guitarists playing open E, while the bassist is throwing an epic solo for the ages. No clue.
Yea, what the shit? No love for Cliff. 😕
+johsdahl inclding some citation from For Whom The Bell Tolls ;-)
was thinking same thing
+johsdahl I think they think this is a guitar soloing.
+Jack Canterville I agree
The fact that this version starts with one of the coolest bass solos I've ever heard from Burton makes this song even more badass
And it only shows James and Kirk playing the same note what in the actual fuck
@@-ff958-4 different ways too i notice
One the greatest bands ever, they have stood the test of time, for sure
Camera dude confused, thinks its a guitar solo and only films James and Kirk.
It’s the end of anesthesia and then it goes into whiplash go watch the pulling teeth for this show it’ll blow your mind
Jesus.....even off the opening....listen to Cliff's bass... :-o
He fuckin slayed!
The power of distortion, a wah pedal, and a kick @$$ musician. Oh, and watch his head, lol.
That high pitch bass at .50 is aweaome.
I was trying to see who was playing, James or Kirk, and then I saw Cliff going crazy!

bunch of 20 year olds doing what they do best
Well that's putting a positive spin on it, but I think it's Lars saying "How did I get here I don't know what I'm doing"
Did you not hear that messed up drum fill Seconds before 1:24 that's why he smiled.
Half of this concert is James pointing at things.
He did that a lot in the early days
Hes counting the audience lol
Definitely pointing at all the ass he's getting later that night
James is pointing,but for what!?
Not much else to do back then when they didn’t have pyrotechnics and all that Jazz
