Cliff Burton - Select Cuts

Cliff Burton - Select
1986 was the year that I started on Electric Bass. In September of that year, me and some friends went to the Ozzy Osbourne concert, not to hear Ozzy per say, but to hear our new favorite band - Metallica. I was fully aware of the great Cliff Burton and the influence that he was having on me, seeing him live at the front of the stage was even more impactful. This tour was the "Master Of Puppets" tour and it would be within a few short weeks that Cliff Burton would tragically pass away. Cliff was only 24 years old...
His bass number "(Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth" was a true hallmark. I've since seen many video performances online and it's worth searching out and watching several different performances of Cliff playing "Anesthesia". Cliff had a genius side to him and he was a great improviser, musical, rhythmic, had incredible energy, played with his fingers (not with a pick - another discussion), had good tone and many more positive attributes.
In the history of Metallica, it is an incredible story...Despite many set backs, the band has continued and even flourished. I'm personally a fan of Jason Newsted, and Robert Trujillo and the band as a whole. The spirit of Cliff continues to live on...
I've selected a few of my favorite tracks from the three albums that Cliff was apart of.
​
Enjoy!
