      Frankly, they always respected him. There's a big difference between hazing (in the early days) and brotherly joking, and disrespect. Even Jason said they always treated him (and paid him) like an equal. The only time he felt disrespected, was when James didn't want him to do Echobrain. And James' wasn't in a good place at the time. He's since admitted he was wrong.
      So just be happy that it's awesome Jason did a video for the Metallica channel (and fans). No need to bring up nonexistent drama. Jason loved, and loves, Metallica. That as clear when he went into the HoF with them.

    I was so upset, for literally years, after Jason left Metallica. He was easily the member I most closely related to. I understood then, and more so now, his reasons for his departure but it didn't make it easier. It was like Mom and Dad getting a divorce. So happy to see he looks back on it all rather fondly and that his relationship with the other guys has been for the most part mended. Metallica was quite literally the soundtrack to my adolescence. Thanks for doing this video Jason. You're still the fucking man!

    We talked for about 5 minutes about the Morley pedal he used back then, the one that made all the noise on Bellz. I was a 16 year old kid in awe of his bass idol at the time and I couldn’t believe he was looking me in the eye and treating me so nice. He was the only member of the band that came out after the show and hung out with the fans. His dedication to the fans was amazing.
    It’s no wonder with his personality and his energy that he remains one of the best loved members of the band.

    Wow, Jason's attention to detail on when so many promotional pictures were taken really shows more than ever how much he cherished his time in the band. It's impressive that he remembers the minor stuff from 30 years ago when the band was at their commercial peak and there was so much going on at the time, yet he could still take it all in. Rock on Jason.

    I love this band so much, man. It's almost impossible for me to explain to others around me how much Metallica is part of me. Goal in life is to see these guys live for the first time! I have no other "material dreams", just seeing Metallica ONE time. I really hope that moment comes soon for me.
    I love seeing Jason here, involved in the celebrations of this masterpiece. You can see him breathing heavily, holding back his emotions, remembering everything from the old days.

      Same! Thankfully they have been over it for years. The 30th anniversary shows were evidence of that. I also recall Jason saying in an interview a few years back that he and Lars catch up regularly over the phone.

    @Murasama 3 ปีที่แล้ว +50

    This unboxing was special in so many ways (glad they included Jason). Can't recall how many Metallica concerts I went to back in the day but I remember how Jason would make time after every show to meet fans who at the time, knowingly hung around after the gig. The guy was truly down to earth then, and is still that same guy now (older but even more wiser). I know he mentioned in various interviews that his body can no longer handle the demanding (by Metallica standards) rigors of touring... but boy would I go back into that late 80's through mid-90's mode when I flew all over the place to watch them, to see Jason do a short "reunion" with them while they all still can.

  • @Rhythmandosyche

  • @ChristopherFoxglove
    @ChristopherFoxglove 3 ปีที่แล้ว +72

    Metallica has had three phenomenal bass players. It’s difficult to decide who’s my favourite.
    Cliff is the obvious choice. A legend. Truly.
    But Jason was the guy when I first got into the band in the 90’s. Jason had the best vocals: harmonies, growls, and that one chorus in Creeping Death. He gave 100% at every show.
    And Rob…. I mean, it’s hard to deny Rob’s talent. He’s a solid player, a great live presence, and just seems like an overall cool dude.
    I know these guys are gettin’ old, but I hope they have at least one more record in them. Doesn’t have to be 80’s style metal either… I’d be happy with a resurgence of their 90’s era sound.
