[Darkange999]

Thanks Cliff for giving me the insperation to start playing bass when I was younger. My main metal hero!!

[MrAlmse]

Noone was before him, and noone will proceed him :(

[Legometallica09]

One of the best???

THE BEST >:)

[jmarg25]

ya dont get bass solos like this anymore

[Martyfriedman001]

Cliff is one of my biggest insperation as a person and as musican,

[90Mrbasha]

any one know the name of this solo plz???

[guitarguy498]

@90Mrbasha i dont really think this solo has a name unfortunately, but what cliff was using is called phrygian dominant scale. so if you play bass or even guitar u can maybe figure it out :)

[racerx9365]

@90Mrbasha at 2min 30sec in he starts playing anesthesia{pulling teeth} from kill em all

[Waleedzilla]

@90Mrbasha Everything after 2:30 is Pulling Teeth, idk about the rest

[guitarguy498]

i would have done anything to see this show.

[ChildOfMyJizz]

God took away Jimi Hendrix to learn to play the guitar.

God took away Cliff Burton to learn to play the bass.

God took away Ronnie James Dio to learn to sing.

God took away James "The Rev" Sullivan to learn to play the drums.

[hrr379]

@ChildOfMyJizz

is he making his own band?

[loonie26]

@ChildOfMyJizz no, god he took hendrix for guitar lessons

burton for bass lessons

mercury to learn to sing

and bonham to play the drums

[A5TROZOMBIE]

@loonie26 He took Darrell, Hendrix, Schuldiner and Rhoads to learn guitar.

Burton and Lynott to learn bass.

Dio and Mercury to sing.

And Bonham and Samuelson to learn drums.

[megaboss3d]

@ChildOfMyJizz Ronnie noooo Freddie Mercury (Ronnie too :'( )

[funkerdoodle13thrash]

@ChildOfMyJizz more like "god took dimebag darrel to learn to shred" god took away cliff to slap the bass... god took paul baloff to have a a beer or two and raise hell and god killed the rev ..because he is a god damn poseer and a7x sucks!

[MrTHRASTILLDEATH]

@ChildOfMyJizz  whats about darrel?

[A7XFOREVER217]

@ChildOfMyJizz no he took rhandy rhoads and dimebag darrel

[WarlordBattleChoirEU]

@ChildOfMyJizz and he took Scott Columbus ti improve the drumming!

[ZZZyeahwhatever]

Wow, almost forgot what it was like to see a real band, not a bunch of american idol posers. This is FUKKING KILLER!!

[Javihumano]

Thank you, is very emocionant

[Limbo13the1]

Cliff is my favorite bass player ever.

[vtx1300r5]

CLIFF LEE BURTON is the best, was the best and will always be the best bassist that ever walk gods green earth. And that is why god took him from us he because he wanted to star a band that's why he took jimi and randy. R.I.P. CLIFF

[MultiMikey1977]

I have this gig on a bootleg cassette tape. It is one of my most prized possessions. The fact that Cliff could play Jimi Hendrixs Star Spangled Banner on a four string bass was just friggin incredible,

[ryan25733]

R.I.P. Cliff

[TheKasd3]

now cliff burton and jimi hendrix are playing in heaven together there just waiting for bruce dickinson, and lars ulrich

[MetalStormUnit]

STOP BRINGING YOUR GOD BULLSHIT AND RELIGIOUS CRAP ON A CLIFF BURTON VIDEO!!! AND DONT EVEN FUCKING MENTION THE BIEB!!!

[MrMatt29999]

steve harris blows this guy away i love the 1st 4 metallica albums but they went to shit real fast after cliff died

[falloutguy24]

as we say in my world man that was sexy

[addicted2rocknroll1]

can we just say RIP cliff and argue about metallica and megadeth somewhere else? yes metallica became sell outs. everyone says the shame shit on every god damn video whether is exodus or cannibal corpse all people talk about is metallica and megadeth.

[teamshlayer]

If only Cliff were here now...he'd probably agree with me :D

[DiErVoNmAnE]

@teamshlayer lol most of what you said was true but about cliff agreeing with you just wouldnt happen i saw an interview of cliff talking shit about mustaine

[teamshlayer]

@DiErVoNmAnE but he and mustaine were good friends throughout it all. he might have talked shit but cliff loved mustaine and mustaine cliff. The song In My Darkest hour was written for cliff...then he hadded lyrics about his ex lol. But they were good friends...and friends talk shit about each otheer. I think I've seen the video you're talking about though to be honest so I see where you're coming from. But Metallica and mustaine are at peace with each other now anyways

[falloutguy24]

@teamshlayer if cliff would have agreed with you and joined megadeth why didnt he and dont get me wrong i love megadeth and metallica both but if cliff wanted to be in megadeth he probaly whould have tried to get in

[XxKasekexX]

@falloutguy24 He would have gotten in easily

[teamshlayer]

fucking posers....

[A5TROZOMBIE]

@teamshlayer I think you won..

[teamshlayer]

And considering you probably like the Four Horsemen and Ride the Lightning...do your research before you rip on megadeth. Mustaine wrote almost everything for the first two albums of Metallica and they stole his ideas after he was kicked out. Suck on that apple

[teamshlayer]

With that said...Cliff should have joined Mustaine and made the biggest metal band ever by themselves. MAYBE HE WOULDN"T BE FUCKING DEAD HAD HE NOT BEEN IN METALLICA

[teamshlayer]

Megadeth is so real unlike Metallica who just plays what the crowd wants to hear. HAVE YOU HEARD JAMES' VOICE THESE DAYS!?!?!  The rage is gone...Mustaine still has it. Metallica used to mean something...now they're a sellout. Kirk is nowhere near as good of a guitarist...trust me. Megadeth has the fills that make metal metal. And then there's songs by Metallica I don't even understand because they're so fake

[teamshlayer]

So much better than Kirk and James put together...He should joined megadeth

[CPSSpurpleRebellion]

@teamshlayer megadeath is gay and so is mustaine.

[tjmccomas]

RIP Cliff..

Control your life through insanity. -Cliff Burton

eh, figured we need somethin thats perfectly put for Cliff, by Cliff

[SadisticPurification]

i wanna find the 11 asslicking fagods that dislike this video and put the bus that killed Cliff in their asses

[SadisticPurification]

@SadisticPurification  *FAGOTS

[ThrashmansMosh]

You should turn off the like/dislike button dude.....then no brainless f**ks can dislike this......R.I.P Cliff.....

[MrSeemby]

25 years ago.... we lost a legend...

[Immortalicide1]

Exactly 25 years ago!!! RIP dude!!!

[Fil007kk]

who can dislike this? .. justin bieber again ??

[steeltoto]

THAT IS AMAZING....... *tttteeaarrr* miss cliff

[guitarguy498]

oh and by the way do someone know tabs for this awesome bass solo? plz send em to me plz . it would be great

[TRIVIUMOWN1]

It wasn't the bus drivers fault he died, so shut the fuck up.

[guitarguy498]

@TRIVIUMOWN1 dont say he died, because LEGENDS NEVER DIE!

[ScreamCharacterGuy]

@cheapcape SHUT UP GOD FUK PUSSY FAGGOT GAYTARD NIGGERNASSHOLE CLIFF WAS LEGEND YOU LIK BIEBER BALLS DICK

[ScreamCharacterGuy]

Clifford Lee Burton: 1962-1986 taken at such a young age every time i hear a solo of his i cry of sadness

[Knucklehead444]

Cliff Burton was only a man, an ordianry person. But that ordinariness is was makes, not only his skills, but also his ability to inspire generations of us and future ones to be like him, and love him, and miss him. Because of this one man. Him. I intially decide to play bass. I heard Orion and Anesthesia and that was it. I decided to paly bass. Until the day i died. And never stop playing bass until my hands broke. R.I.P Cliff we all miss you and i always drink to your legacy.

[Epiales]

@akukumar420 wow that's pretty profound that you would want someone dead, even if its someone else. Who are you to say that one man's life is worth more than another's?

[Akukumar420]

i wished that only if he didn't slept in place of Kirk and there could be Dave Mustaine back replacing the place for Lead guitar in Metallica :(

[CarrotGoldsmith]

what's done is done and cannot be anymore,however the greatness will always be,unfading,never dying,forever,eternal fire that will not extinguish.

[SebaChannel]

metallica would be a living greek legend if cliff didnt passed away

RIP the best bass player ever

[SuperGreenguy420]

god take bieber give back burton



[dirosaga]

@SuperGreenguy420 wow you're an ass. WIshing a kid to die? Even if your joking, and i don't see a lol or anything.

[MrTHRASTILLDEATH]

@SuperGreenguy420  he's not gonna take bieber because god hear real music sorry bad english

[AnamariaOcampo99]

if only the bus driver had died instead of cliff!!!

[Shadowbudd]

this song could have been a huge hit but......... things happen for a reason guys

[Ozzy121218]

It wasn't the bus drivers fault you dumbass 

[AnamariaOcampo99]

@Ozzy121218 yes it fucking was, the driver was drunk and it crashed and crushed him, whats not to hate about that son of a bitch

[SergioWW1WW2]

@metallicaman31130 Like a boss \m/

[RICKYSMITH96]

i asked the domain owner of master.of.puppets.com if anyone else on that bus could have died on that bus instead of cliff who would it be, he replied the bus driver, what a legend

[falloutguy24]

no up yours

[BassOutcast]

Burton Up Your Ass !

[TheTrendyAxe]

He still is the best bass player R.I.P Cliff

[MrJ1996H]

Man Another One Of His Great Solos

You Can't Get Enough Of Them

[Methrt3]

Lars comes in playing about 4 times as fast as he should be.

[matobear2112]

if cliff were still around,metallica would not have become the pussy band they are now.no substance to their music anymore and they keep rehashing the same tired riffs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!}:P

[matobear2112]

if cliff were still aound,metallica would not have become the pussy band they are now.no substance to their music anymore and they keep rehashing the same tired riffs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!}:P

[shadowdemons117]

\m/ -_- \m/ rock on......just.....rock on

[ciaranhannonyoyo]

its ok nothing spectatcular

[6633Headbanger6633]

@OGfearplex

then god called keith moon to learn how to play the drums, but keith got a hold of the super heaven drugs, so he called john bonham instead

[OGfearplex]

God called Jimi to learn how to play guitar.

God called Cliff to learn how to play bass.

[TheMustainism]

@OGfearplex God called Gar to learn how to play drums :)

[EgoDaemonium]

@OGfearplex God called dio to learn to sing

[MorkaGraven]

@OGfearplex God called Lemmy to play guitar, realised he made a mistake and called on Peter Brock to give him a bass instead.

[delamist]

11people will soon meet cliff

[TheM3TaLMeTaLLiCa]

How do you know this is the last concert he did ?

[Raiener]

@TheM3TaLMeTaLLiCa By looking at the date of the concert, they aren't exactly secretive events....

[leifericson923]

I always wonder what cliff would be like if he were alive today, it's weird thinking that he's forever a kid while the rest of his band mates grew older.

[Utubepooperful]

@leifericson923 Yeah me too! I always wondered if he'd have cut his hair, shaved etc and how unreal Metallica would have been if you took Megadeth songs (assuming Dave was still in Metallica) and added a Cliff Burton bassline to them

[SkitzThaKlown]

he died in the morning..

[bunnygal079]

10 dislikes!? can't believe anyone would not like this...this is awesome.

[javafreak257]

@bunnygal079 i know who... beliebers

[VideoMask93]

@VredesStal Naw, I think back then they still hated each other too much. I wonder who would have replaced Kirk, though, if that had happened...

[IngloriousIdiot2]

Cliff Burton: Godfather of Bassplaying

[fredespanish]

it's wear to hear someone playing a song one day before he died.

[HardyBoyFan101]

@fredespanish It's not weird, it's fuckin' creepy.

[elchichodeltren]

where do i can find his tomb?

[Blackdragon52k]

@elchichodeltren he was cremated

[evdekisesbambam]

Steve Harris opened 10 different accounts and disliked that video.

[VideoMask93]

@evdekisesbambam I don't think Steve Harris disliked Cliff at all.

[TheShepster80]

For the people who dislike this video!!! ''FUCK YOU! PUSS FAG SLUT!!!"

[KagandoElPalo]

@TheShepster80 oh powerfull god of metl please taake violently th soul of justn bieber and return to us our dear clifff an also our dear paul

[carerragted]

i really hate the people who say oh yeah i know cliff and everything that happened RIP cliff and they never even listened to him before he died ima say it straight up i didnt get a chance to listen to him before he died and im not claiming to say i know all about him but i would do anything to be able to see him live.

[Thedudester12]

cliff didn't die.

god wanted his split bell bottoms and sexy guitar

[fearmydrums]

he was the master, of puppets

[TheCannibalMaster]

For those who will dislike this, kill'em all!!

[gewinner78957]

Who dislikes this will get killed by a bus.

[Sirpwng]

R.I.P

[rawd]

Dude, seriously? I hardly ever sign in to youtube but who in their right mind would "dislike" this video clip? If it's his last clip or not, all that shit aside it's still an EXCELLENT display of bass prowess. Yeah he's not the best in the world but fuck it he's amazing either way

[MotherfuckingBATTERY]

@rawd You're right. He's not the best in the world. He's the best in the universe.

[stuuuudent]

@MotherfuckingBATTERY reason, somewhere his ghost rises in concert

[Cardgames4children]

What the world had that night, and what the world was deprived of the following morning...RIP Cliff Burton

[GhMetallicaBAssplaye]

he is awesome and u 6 idiots are assholes

[officialkingofbass]

is there a bass solo where u dont here the eletric guitar in it or drums

[bronn87]

@officialkingofbass  thats not electric guitar man

[VideoMask93]

@officialkingofbass There's the first half or so of this, Anesthesia, and other solos he did. There's no electric guitar in this at all.

[MrKornballs]

R.I.P. Clifford Lee Burton 10.2.1962-27.9.1986 When a man lies he murders Some part of the world These are the pale deaths which Men call their lives All this I cannot bare To witness any longer Cannot the kingdom of salvation Take me home -To Live Is To Die

[Ruben220597]

@6mnorris absolutely

[fonimer]

@6mnorris God needs NOTHING from humans. Stop blaspheming God. He will judge you for it someday soon if you don't repent.

[wowaddict564]

@fonimer You do know that there is no god, it's only a figment of people's imagination to explain what they're too stupid to understand.

[6mnorris]

@fonimer Shut up you think you know so much about god when you know NOTHING Cliff WAS GOOD AT BASS actually he is better than god at bad i dont need to read your dumb comment to tell me different YOU DUMB FUCK

R.I.P Cliff burton

[Metallifuch]

[Andrewoid95]

Could anybody tab this solo??  I want to learn it!!

[saagrith]

@Andrewoid95 nothing to tab.... lol enless you got intense photographic memory and musical capability. theres multiple solos in it as well...

[Andrewoid95]

@saagrith I only got the beginning and 0:48 to 0:55 down. I can't get the stuff in between and after. :|

[saagrith]

@Andrewoid95 i can tell the first solo will be the hardest since it doesnt sound like anything at least to me the rest seem reminiscent to some sort of song. if you can figure the songs out you might have some help...

[TrueVideo]

I've been listening to this holy of a solo for almost 20 years (still got the tape) and I know it note for note. Simply breath taking every time!

But just to let you guys know this is not from his last night with us. This was a few months before while on tour in the US either chicago or michigan.

RIP Cliff!!

[Thevipaka]

id love to know cliffs opinion on TOOL

[MrGERARDO234]

no puede el reino de la salvacion llevarme a casa (cliff burton)

[kmparado]

[TheNielsotterman]

RIP God/Cliff

[ImamSzamil]

Metallica would be the best band ever if he didn't die

[88Panzzer]

Great musician, I just hope he was square with God when he died. I'd sure like to hear more from him when I get to Valhalla.

[uberhalo3]

Dio, The Rev, Cliff. God is assembling the ultimate band.

[SlashXrules]

@uberhalo3 Hendrix, Paul Gray

[abhrokool]

playing bass is my religion,Cliff Burton is my god!!!!

[1642poltergeist]

no one can put this astronomic spacey atmosphere on a bass, his fingers were so fast.. the emotion.. seems like he keeps talking to us through this.

[CarEdy23]

metal history? one of the best players that have ever exist

[TheSunshineSwine]

The undisputed KING of heavy metal bass guitar, your music will never die Cliff. R.I.P

[DementedChicken100]

Cliff Burton did not actually die, he was too awesome to die. He just went home to the heavens to teach God how to play bass.

And when you hear what you think is thunder, it's actually Cliff jamming on his bass in Heaven. ROCK ON FOREVER CLIFF \m/

[Blackdragon52k]

@DementedChicken100 Thunder is cliff hitting a deadnote, lightning is god pissing himself in amazement ;)

[Yann906]

RIP Cliff we all miss you here but we are sure that now you're jamming with other great musicians that died such as Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan from Avenged Sevenfold and Freddie Mercury from Queen
