    I always learned it as Rob's way with the pull-off and that's how I still play it, my band and I covered this song at one of our shows in April and I've also developed my own "habit" of adding some of Cliff's fills from the 1985 Day On the Green show since that just adds another level of badassery to the song (also playing it on my Rickenbacker made it sound more accurate imo, even though Cliff started playing an Aria by that point), I can also hear it on the Black Album as well and that interpolation with Sandman sounded awesome. Great to see these analysis video again, fantastic job as always man

    When my band covers "Bellz", my bass player doesn't do the pull-off at all, like Jason. I'd rather, if he were going to, to pull off to 16, rather than zero. It makes more musical sense, as, when combined with the first note of the next measure, makes a G major triad, and we know how much Cliff loved major and minor triads.
