    I love that anything off of And Justice For All is essentially a backing track for bass playing. Amazing tone though and great playing.

    This dude is just grooving. That tone is so beefy too. Totally changes the way this song makes you feel. I can’t believe Lars had Jason’s bass lowered to damn near nothing on that album. If I were James, I’d have stepped in and stopped that shit with the quickness.

    I was 10 years old when my mother drove me to the mall to buy this the day it came out (1988) in my small town. The artwork at 0:09, I had that shirt, and about 8 others and yeah long hair played a fucking bass and Cliff was my hero, damn how the times change, now I'm bald and have a long beard and my daughter wears Metallica shirts, her favorite song is spit out the bone. Dude every time I watch one of your videos....... dude thanks!

    Your playing on this whole album is supremely tasteful. If the guys in metallica had sense they'd re-release the album with your bass tracks so fans can hear as it should've been.
    Excellent job!!
