Agreed,no one else was a true, I mean as far as I've seen,true genuine metal loving,head banging cool guy.. I know that someone is going to disagree and I get it... it's just Cliff had enormous ambition and he actually lived what he was which is a real dude and not a fake bone in his body
@@WIlSoNs_CreAtiOn_sTatIoN The cult surrounding Cliff is kind of scary. Every time somebody brings him up a few more superlatives are added to his description. None of you ever met him, most of you were born after he died and never even saw him play. All you go on is a few minutes of video and what others have told you about him. It really is kind of scary.
That Orion sound is so damn good. I'll never get tired of it.. man.. just IMAGINE what else we would've gotten if that crash didn't happen.. RIP cliff. Lightning, puppets, justice, and black will forever be my favorite metal albums. I might be in a small group when I say I understand why they went with no bass on justice.. ALOT of people hate on it, I understand and I STILL think it was a one of a kind sound that album is one of the sickest in it's own way
Madhatter...hell yeah that's a cool name, I have a song that is called madhatter... I know you don't give a fuck but I'm bored and I am a musician and TH-camr and that's my life,... hahaha.. FUK it
He basically played the bass like a guitar, but with an actual right hand bass technique and not just a pick. I think that’s part of what made him so unique and allowed him to fit into the grove so well.
@@wilhelmorangenbaum2i think they were saying he played more like a guitarist but with fingers instead of a pick which most guitarists played using. The opposite would be like saying the guitarist played their guitar more like a bassist except with a pick instead of fingers. I don't think they were meaning to say playing bass with a pick isnt legitimate, which is how it sounds I'll admit, but instead actually making a statement about What he was playing (the notes and rhythm being more like what would be played by the guitarists with picks), not about How he played (using a finger technique instead of a pick).
He also managed to participate in and justice for all in the song "to live is to die" that song was officially his last participation in an album with Metallica
I have great respect for musicians who have the guts to try & fill the shoes of a former or deceased member of a band. You always have to hear & see the comments about the previous member you are replacing. Metallica fans are very loyal so replacing someone in their band is its own kind of drama. Jason had to listen to the comments about how great Cliff was & then Robert has to listen to how great Cliff was AND how great Jason is. Mad respect for these guys who don’t let the comparisons weigh them down.
That was👍👍👍👍....listening to just the bass riffs on "Trauma" and "Ride the Lighting" was totally in my face like nothing before. Just shows how much the vocalist and guitarists get all the glory and how much underated percussion type bass playing is
PJ bass, both pickups and tone full. Boost treble and mids a little on the amp. Play with a thin pick by the bridge and use a chorus pedal if you have one.
I was very fortunate enough to see Metallica live in Ottawa Canada when Ride The Lightning came out ('83/'84) I bootlegged it but lost the tape years ago. As a bassist, Cliff Burton was a massive inspiration to me. I thought "thank goodness, another towering bass player for the ages!!!"
Orion is my fav song of all time. Cliffs last gift to humanity in the form of an epic 7 min powermetal instrumental with an equally epic leading bass line + solo
Hey Orion is like in my top ten favorites, I call it your not allowed.. lmao, just kidding I do love Orion though, probably in my top 3 Metallica songs
Clifford Lee Burton I will hopefully get to see you on the other side.... much love, Douglas Wilson. P.s. you were one of the great musician s I was inspired by.. I like the misfits also but I have to go back to work and I love you Cliff.
Bruh the bell sound at the end had me dead 💀
Cliff too
That was so foul
@@ethanday7176dude... I can't laugh... It's Cliff

Fuxk you. Hella funny!!! 😂😂😂😂
That ending caught me off guard. R.I.P. Cliff. You're missed dearly...
It caught everyone off guard.
I mean it’s true that is how he evolved in those 5 years, just a fact.
No questions to the author of the video?
He really was a one off. Phenomenal bassist

@@justinfowler5761 hes just jealous bcuz he SUCKS
@@vinny142I agree there are definitely many better than him it’s just he was a amazing bassist in one of the best bands
That trauma lick is SO GOOD
Yeah, it is! I need to hear more of that.

Newstead played on Black
I like it because it's so easy to play along with. The bass is non-existent.
Trapped Under Ice is such an underrated song
Agreed
I think it's as rated as the whole Ride album is, the best Metallica's work ever
@@juliancasablancas3367 exactly! Ride the lightning>>>>
I need to listen to it more. I usually skip it when I listen to RTL.

The bell sound 💀
For whom the bell tolls!!!!

Man that ending really put me In My Darkest Hour…
Really Dave really
@@Not_james_hetfeild Yes James... yes
That Rickenbacker sounds and looks amazing!
Cliff was the main reason why I picked bass
Cliff the beast! The reason I picked up bass.
Day 4 Chris Squire!
Good one, it’s gonna be similar to cliffs ric but you know, with bass.
I’ve been asking for 29 days now and to no avail 😭
Madhatter...hell yeah that's a cool name, I have a song that is called madhatter... I know you don't give a fuck but I'm bored and I am a musician and TH-camr and that's my life,... hahaha.. FUK it
The ending was extremely out of pocket. 💀
Can only imagine how different And Justice For All would sound if Cliff would still be here
There would be bass at least
It's an amazing album
Orion is so underated
Is it really though??!!
Hardly.
Mate, do you understand what "underrated" means? It's one of their most highly rated tracks and rightly so.
@@i_am_steve in America? No one talks about it here.
@@NewBeginning509 you must live under a rock then. Lol
Best bassist and headbanger of all time!! Rest in peace, Cliff!! We'll love you and your talend forever!!!
i cussed at the ending lmfaoo 😭😭
skipping a day to say RIP Cliff Burton. That was quite a unexpected ending lol.
Cliff is one of the few guys that died young that nobody disputes him being one of the great bass players of all time
The major rager will never truly die! Orion still gives me chills every time - I can't stop playing it!
Hes the reason i picked up a bass. 13 yrs old when Ride the Lightning came out.
Ride the lightning...the best..
He basically played the bass like a guitar, but with an actual right hand bass technique and not just a pick. I think that’s part of what made him so unique and allowed him to fit into the grove so well.
Fun fact: playing with a pick is an actual technique
Playing with a pick is a legitimately way of playing bass bro, Chris Squire and Steve Swallow are two prime examples
@@wilhelmorangenbaum2 You missed my point completely
@@nathanstein589 "but with an actual right hand bass technique and not just a pick"
So, what was your actual point?

Vaya pedazo de músico...descanse en paz,genio absoluto.... irremplazable!
He and we all deserved 5 minutes more of his Evolution. It would have been astonishing
The only musician I have been honestly super depressed about that they couldn't make more music while they were alive. R.I.P. Cliff Burton.
The bell I can’t 💀
Goat!!!!
God bless Cliff Burton...
Thank you for your beautiful music.
That Reichenbacher is a fucking tone monster.
I love the attention to detail you put in your videos!👏🏻
Trapped under ice goes hard man
Not as hard as trapped under bus
rip cliff. would’ve been one of the best metal bassists ever
That is a sick Rick. Great job!
That was AWESOME 👏🏼 🔥 🔥
Yeah Cliftoooooon!
Imagine how much more talent he would have had almost 40 years after the masterpiece that is Orion were he still here RIP Cliff
My guess is that he whould have became some kinda Lemmy in many ways. My he shred in peace 😢 🤘
Brother! That bell gave me chills...
He brought the Rick back!!!!
Burton will always be on my mantle of greatest to ever do it. The whole denim covered package.
Agreed
He also managed to participate in and justice for all in the song "to live is to die" that song was officially his last participation in an album with Metallica
Now the song is essentially dedicated to him
Man this song is so good
Best musician in this band, we all know as Metallica. R.I.P Cliff
I dig that Lion profile picture..
For Whom The Bell Tolls is what made me get into cliff burton
Day 7 of asking for Reginald "Fieldy" Arvizu (korn) behs tone.
Btw RIP Cliff he was the goat of metal bassists
Beautiful tribute
Gotta love cliff
Pelease do one for this tone, it's sick!
Great sound and playing.
You nailed them all 📢👏👏👏👏👏. RIP Mr Burton 😥
That last one was definitely Orion
Master of puppets is the album
Really I didn’t notice 🤯🤯🤯
Bro it's for whom the bell tolls

Ride the Lightning was the best time of Cliff Burton.
rest in peace cliff, we all love you❤
Day 29 of asking for Paul grays bass tone
That was👍👍👍👍....listening to just the bass riffs on "Trauma" and "Ride the Lighting" was totally in my face like nothing before. Just shows how much the vocalist and guitarists get all the glory and how much underated percussion type bass playing is
What is the trauma song? :0 I need to know it cuz the bass is just woah :00
Exactly, I need to know it too ;)
yea wtf is that song
Me as well
it’s called such a shame! the album is scratch and scream
Love it, love it, love it Danny! You are an ace!
Day 33 of asking for paul grays bass tone
How sad...
...he died when he was only 24, incredibly talented and a unique style, and he had a life ahead of him.
R.i.p. Cliff
Day 50 of asking for duff mckagans bass tone on a budget
Day 3
Yes
PJ bass, both pickups and tone full. Boost treble and mids a little on the amp. Play with a thin pick by the bridge and use a chorus pedal if you have one.
That tone is tough!
Cliff and Randy taught me it's always the scrawny guys that make the biggest tone.
Randy who?
@@r3daRhoads
Cliff 'em all! ❤
Rest in peace cliff .... the real master 🙏
That trauma tone is fckn amazing
Dude... That was cold. 😂
Brilliant playing, BTW.

The band was never the same after his passing. RIP you marvelous BEHS player, you!
Кайф, спасибо за музыку!
LOVE IT!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

May Cliff Burton rest in Power 🤘
Cliffs' end was tragic. Preventable unlike most rockers deaths i.e jimi hendrix
the most talented bass player ever..RIP Cliff Burton..
We Love you Cliff!!!
Awesome ❤

Can really hear that Rush influence, I wish we still had him for the sake of metal bass!!!!
Yeah that first one has YYZ all over
When you think about what could have been.
We miss you Cliff.
only reaffirms what a beast and visionary Cliff Burton was
😳 so many good stuff in a little bit of time! Gone too soon! 🙏🏼
he embodied thrash metal unlike anyone else
Orion is still one of my favourites, phenomenal track🤘R.I.P. Cliff
Greatest basses of metal along with Lemmy kilmister two legends jamming in heaven
Very impressive stuff. Cliff was one of a kind
Cliff the Bass Man
*F... YEAH, MAN!*
RIP Cliff ❤
Cliff, what an amazing talent! He left us too soon!
RIP king 🎉🎉
That ride the lightning got me shocked for a moment! it sounds like the opening bass line of wake up dead!!😮
Your tone is insane!
Wish I were here, Cliff!
Ending is wild 💀
You really CLIFFed that bass. Amazing
The first song sounded like something you’d hear from Rush..that’s who I would have thought I’d been listening to!
Reminded me of Voivod.
One of a kind .
Cliff Burton Frvr❤
nah was the ending necessary 😭😭
