  • Why you gonna die your son of a bitch?! WHY!! Come back and go on!!!

  • just turned 21 years old at the time............Genius

  • When I first watched this I thought he was playing the lead guitar.

  • The Major Rager on the Four String Mother Fucker i dont care if you still fight about both bands Dave obviously loved Cliff

  • Lol at Mustaine at 4:00

  • starting at 2:54 til like 3:20 is what made me go buy a bass guitar and start trying to play. Seriously, it's because of you Cliff Burton! FUCK YEAH.

  • Jesus Christ James can scream

  • HAIL TO THE FOUR STRING MOTHERFUCKER!!!

  • "(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth" is the best song on Kill 'Em All! And I'm glad Metallica don't seem to play this song much anymore, it would just be wrong for Jason Newsted or Robert Trujillo to play it (nothing against Jason or Robert), or just any bassist that's not Cliff Burton. R.I.P. Cliff. :( Thanks for posting by the way! :)

  • @jmsmilton84 yea it would be like Rob playing My friend of misery

  • @Bocephusdixie How does My Friend of Misery come into this?

  • @mybandwhiterose someone said something about rob or jason playing Aneshtesia, and i was saying it would be like rob playing my friend of misery because that is jason's piece, as Anesthesia is Cliff's

  • RIP he is up there sitting beside god giving him personal concerts and if god had a band he would be the bassest

  • THe Majerrrr Ragerrrrr!

  • My GAWD James sound young. And Lars is still so small you can't even see him! (Not that you can now!)

    RIP Cliff, all the best to James, Lars and Dave Mustaine, Gods All.

  • The major rager of the four string mother fucker :)

  • @Nufu7861 ON the 4 string mutherfucker...lol

  • That was metallicas best line up man!!..RIP Clifford lee Burton

  • metallica puts metal up ur ass

  • if you ask me ¿Who is Cliff Burton?

    i say, Cliff Burton is my God.

    He never dies in my heart.

    never¡¡¡¡¡¡

  • cliff burton rules #1!!!!!

  • eso si es tocar el bajo!!!!!!!!!

  • When a man lies he murders

    Some part of the world

    These are the pale deaths which

    Men miscall their lives

    All this i cannot bear

    To witness any longer

    Cannot the kingdom of salvation

    Take me home.

    24 Years ):

  • hard to belive hes been gone for 24 years

  • What the fuck??? that is Dave Mustaine???

  • It's Dave!!!

  • Me gusta pensar "y si kirk hubiera muerto en vez de cliff? que tal si Dave hubiera regresado a metallica?"

  • @protonelexe tal vez no hubiera pasado esa cosa llamada black album...y metallica siguiera mereciendo su lugar dentro de los 4 llamados grandes del thrash

  • @protonelexe jaja a mi me gusta pensar"y si lars hubiera muerto en vez de cliff? se habrian conseguido un baterista desente

  • simply fucking amazing

  • who was the guy in the beginning? was it James? was he drunk?

  • @Skullclone It was Dave Mustaine, this was when Metallica just got Cliff and before Dave was booted

  • @Skullclone are there still people who don't know who Dave Mustaine is??? are they drunk?

  • @Skullclone Dave Mustaine was

  • i offer my balls for go to look the magor ragor of the four string motherfucker!!

  • i remembered reading about this part in the joel mcelver book "to live is to die", that was dave talking in the beginning. If you havent read the book and your a cliff burton worshipper, then i highly recommend reading the book.

  • @clipzngunz Where can i find it at?

  • @Mikefromtrenton borders, but any book store. the author is joel mcelver the title is "to live is to die" who is also a bass player himself so youll see alot of detail in cliffs method and how he studied music theory as well as his writing of many of metallicas older yet better songs.

  • @clipzngunz Sweet thanks alot.

  • SAINT MUSTAINE IS A FUCKIN MANIAC!!

  • Cliff is definetly the best bass player of all time...it would be amazing if he were here today

  • james thats dave mustain talking in the begining

  • metallica and megadeth should combine and become metalldeth..and produce all great song..that will be epic!

  • @81RacOOn How about Megatallica?

  • @Mikefromtrenton change my mind ..

    i hate megadeth .. i hate dave .. he always tryin to bame kirk 4 anythin

  • @81RacOOn no way, he hated metallica for kicking him out and he knew that he was better, but not anymore they are all good now, altho i think Dave is a better guitarist for this kind of music, but Kirk is a great guitarist too dont get me wrong

  • |mL cliff for eveeeer!!!!!!!

  • what wouldve been the metallica dream line up... James on vocals, dave on lead, kirk on rhythm, cliff ( back from the dead) on bass, and lars on drums!!!! who's with me

  • BEST LINE UP!!! KILL EM ALL FOR LIFE!

  • that lineup of Metallica was the most metalhead in its history, not only for his music but for his music.

  • fuck!... another metallica vs megadeth fight can't we all just watch cliff playing?!

  • amen to that

  • Metallica vs Megadeth will always fight so I guess ... But the only fight fans.

    Both bands are no longer fight. So why fans can not even stop?

    Both bands are fucking awesome, so Stop arguing who is better, and start to enjoy that we have two great bands ^ ^

    (Sorry if i wrote something wrong, but my english is a bit lame :D)

  • OMG 3:19 That whip sound is FUCKING AWESOME!!!!

  • shit this is old! back in the Dave Mustaine days, but it still rocks hard!

  • ugh i jizzed. this is beautiful

  • @maty5643- I somewhat agree with you, But imagine if he had stayed in, they would have never made the black album, which was shitty, and Cliff would still be alive, cuz they would have never toured in sweden, probably somewhere in south america instead. Then Metallica could officially be called the Best Metal Band ever. \m/ R.I.P. Cliff

  • or maybe they woulda broken up

    the world may never know :l

  • cliff burton makes me a whole

  • when i die i'll die banging my head with whiplash

  • THANKS James! THANKS Lars! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! For fired Dave Mustaine and create MEGADETH!!!

    Thank you again...

  • Although I like Metallica better, Dave Mustaine is the best songwriter to ever come out of that band, and he is probably the best Metal guitarist, Ever.

  • yeah maybe, but he cant sing for shit.

  • *talks to sky* omfg cliff god you killed it

    dam i love his hair hahaha even its talented in its dance skills!!

  • No. 1 BASSPLAYER!!!

    :)  no.1 Fan!!!!

  • Dave Mustaine always addressed the crowd because James was shy.

  • question

    is that dave talking in the beginning, or is that james

    im pretty sure its dave tho, cuz it doesn't sound like james at all

  • James,

    james sounded diff. back in the day

  • Dont be hating on dave, he is the reason ron left the band thus cliff joining, so dave made cliff come into metallica partly, as dave tipped beer down the neck of ron's bass lol

  • besides if dave didnt leave metallica we wouldnt have had kirk hammet and for megadeth fans without metallica kickin dave out then there would be no megadeth so for those who hate one of em stop complainin

  • Totally agree with you!

  • haha, James sounds fucking hammered when he intros Cliff.

  • cliff played bass like he was playin an electric guitar

  • that's what James and Lars thought when they first heard him.

    James was like "Holy shit! That's one heavy fuckin guitar!!!"

  • Cliff Burton is a fucking god. His skeleton could fucking shred.

    He's a major rager on that four string mother fucker.

  • Seriously everybody thinks he's better because he plays faster. It doesn't mean he's better! His soloing sounds like cow farts when he was with Metallica.

  • crap, crap, crap. Dave is far better a guitarist than Kirk or James will even be. Even Kirk admits it in an interview he did on MTV not that long ago. Musically, Megadeth is far better than Metallica will ever be.

  • Kirk never admitted to that, but for some reason, Megadeth fans like to dump on Metallica because they're pissed Dave got booted from the better band.

    Musically, Metallica's the better band because they have a better vocalist, a more melodic guitarist, a more melodic drummer, and a monkey/crab on bass, so in yo face.

    Musically, Megadeth's the not-so-good band because Dave sucks on vocals and all he does is shred on the guitar, the drummer is good, the bassist is decent...but hes no monkey/crab!

  • Yes he did, see the interview he gave when he referred to the Megadeth documentary where Dave says that Kirk does the best with the talent he has. Kirk says "fair enough man, I am the first to admit that I can't keep up with Dave".

    So go fuck yourself and check your facts first you faggot.

    And no, Metallica are not better musically. Another thing you got wrong, retard.

  • first off, questioning somebody's sexual orientation isn't going to make you sound smarter, so don't even bother going that far.

    And I haven't seen this interview, so until I do see it, bull shit.

    find me the link to this video.

  • Yes, it will. Calling you gay is the smart thing to say because you love cock in your mouth.

    Ah, so just because YOU haven't seen that interview means it wasn't said? Fuck you retard, you aren't the centre of the universe - it exists, he said it, accept it.

    Why are Metallica fans so sensitive about the subject of Kirk and his playing skills?

  • Calling me gay is the stupid ass thing to do. Mainly it shows how you can't think of anything relevant.

    And what I obviously meant by saying what I did is until I see it, I don't believe it, dumb ass.

    And why are Metallica fans so sensitive? We aren't. But we have a major problem with a lot of Megadeth fans because they like to act like ass holes everywhere. "Megadeth is better" or "Mustain is better" totally unprovoked.

    Megadeth is good, but the fans are asses.

  • There you go getting all sensitive again, faggot.

  • How is that getting sensitive? I'm telling the unfortunate truth, not whining and complaining about it. People like you get annoying, but it's not like you're gonna make me cry or some shit.

  • You are probably already crying. Sitting there crying your eyes out with your cock in your hand jerking off to thoughts of you and Kirk fucking.

    You people are so lame.

  • Megadeth fans are lame.

    SunaSand is kinda right.

  • Is this the only live footage Metallica has with Mustaine,too bad the quality isn't very good,would be interesting to hear how they actually sounded with him.

  • I love that Cliff just headbanged all the time and didn't care.

  • because he was whacked out on drugs.

  • And what's wrong with that if that's your thing?

  • if ur talkin about the whiplash then ur a fuckin dumb ass lets see make a solo better than that

  • When Cliff died Anesthesia went to the grave with him,Jason or Rob would never play it live out of respect to him.

  • Anesthesia wasn't a song in the same way Whiplash or Master of Puppets was a song. It was just a solo - *Burton*'s solo.

  • Look up Buckethead Bass....is is as good as Claypool

  • flea??????? durrrr

  • Man Cliff was a fantastic bassist but I think his headbanging was his trademark!

  • At 5:20 the camera is about to explode due the sheer awesomeness that is Dave and James playing at the same time.

    Fortunately, it didn't.

  • dave and cliff made metallica what they are!

  • Deffinition of Cliff Burton:

    The BEST bassist ever w/ the coolest effects on bass and any1 who hates him or makes funa of him is an ASS!!!!

  • well if u think that, then ur a retart!

    cliff is the best bassist ever!

    no one is better than him!

  • @SunaSand

    i have a great amount of respect for cliff burton and he is definitely one of the best bassists of all time but to say that no one is better then him is a stretch.

    and if you disagree with that you should probably just stfu for lack of intellect

  • @SunaSand he isn't

  • its not dave mustaine its james hetfield !

  • ohh lol shame on me i misread it all :)

    thought it said dave on leadSING doooh

    stupid me !

  • Stupid!!!! IS the original Metellica

  • Crazy mop of a hair solo. Cliff the Syrup base sound.

  • every body puttin down dave but fuk thanx for him metallica was who they are, maybin drunk on his solos but wrote them, go kirk go but thanx dave to to makin killem all, and eveyone who thinks dave solos sucked you post you tube a better solo, thanx to the metallica fans who no what i mean

  • METAL UP UR ASS!!!!!!

  • would've love to hear the dave's solo. but i don't think kirks solo can be beat, but if anybody could do, it would be a drunken dave mustaine

  • a definite full screen view.there are no words in the english language to describe what cliff was able to do on bass.cliff was a god

  • AWESOME.this IS the original METALLICA for me

  • Yeah, there's Metallica with Cliff and other Metallica after him. Watched Metallica live 5 times, but never with Cliff. Tomorrow is 22nd anversary of his death. :-(

  • its really good everytime i meet big metal fans.5 times are really a lot.havent seen them not even one:( i know about the aniversary and im going back and watching old metallica concerts.for me cliff is a big metal legend and im really sad everytime when i thin hes gone.if he was still alive i cant imagine how metallica would sound!

  • Except for one track that I can't remember the name of, I haven't heard it yet. Not losing any sleep over it. The golden days are looong gone.

  • I haven't seen this for years. I wore my vhs copy of cliff 'em all out on this part. Running it through my stereo and crankin' that fucker up all the way. Thanks large for posting this.

  • no problem, my copy was starting to look pretty dire by the time i got this on the net. what do you think of "death magnetic"?

  • Im a bass player and i can play part of this, holiy crap it is hard.

  • Actually, Mustaine and Burton remained good friends until Cliff's death. He actually wanted Dave to remain in the band. Of course with the two egos that remain, what do you expect?

  • Um actually no he didnt because he came drunk to gigs there pal

  • They were all drunks! Especially James. He went to rehab also. It did Dave good though to be kicked out.

  • so fucking what? its not like lars or james havent..

    this is the early early days man, obviously they wouldnt do it now

  • holy shit!! my favorite live version of whiplash...its actually clear.

  • Currently Metallica sucks!!

  • THANK YOU! oh man to be born maybe 16 years before this video. to actually expierence metallica while they still have that crunchy metal sound. when they didnt water down their taste and arent big corporate sellouts. to see cliff alive. that would incredible.

  • The 3:45 mark when the guitars come in.

    Damn.

    They should play the song like that every time.

  • after burtons amazing solo... notice how gay mustaine enters the stage as if he was the hero there....  no wonder they kicked him !!!

  • hey buddy fuck you!

  • Mustaine's a good guitar player, he was just misguided with the alcohol in those days.

  • This is the greatest video ever-

  • Dave Mustaine kicks ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • fucking insane...wish i was born about 15 years before that

  • u read my mind :)

  • except for Mustaine you're right. I for one can't stand Mustaine, but I guess it's a matter of preferences. I like Kirks love for the wah, because Cliff felt the same way about it and they made a nice duo for the time.

  • mustaine kicks kirks ass, RIP CLIFF!!!!!!!

  • how do you know? why is it that when people look at rockstars who died they always assume that "if they'd lived they would keep making good music" who's to say that kurt cobain wouldn't be collaborating with puff daddy? how do we know that hendrix wouldn't have made a crap disco album etc etc?! how do we know that metallica with mustaine and burton wouldn't have made "st anger" or turned into a watered down version of megadeth?

  • Course I don't lierally "know", but I like my chances with the talent of this lineup, not to mention 4 very creative people (as opposed to 2 in the post-Master of Puppets lineup), and 3 very cool people (I'm leaving Lars out of that description). As for Cobain, good riddance to 'em, but Hendrix... he would've continued to always be intereting, or so say I. I wouldn't mind Jimi soloing over a disco bassline.

  • ya but i mean u cant say that all there music was shitty after tham, sure it sint the same, but its not shitty

  • meant to attach that last reply here...

  • how do you know wats going to be in your ass from one minute to the next huh?

  • @ Mindbait: We know by empirical evidence of their character and skill. How do I know Cobain wouldn't be collaborating with Puff Daddy (or P-diddy or whatever)? Because he wasn't a sellout whore. He hated himself for the popularity of his music and felt he was being untrue to his real fan base. That is in large part WHY he killed himself, thus the prospect of him working with Puff Daddy is impossible at best. As for Hendrix doing disco, that would still be epic, because it's HENDRIX doing disco.

  • partly reason why what KeithRamone wrote was true is because Cliff Burton was against commercialism, the very thing Metallica turned into with Load and reLoad. CLiff left his earlier band for metallica because they started to become a bit too commercial according to him. Seeing the huge influence Cliff had on Metallica - they all respected him with reason. They most likely had stayed like they were on Cliff 'Em All. Still I will always love Metallica no matter what! \o/

  • well most people think metallica sold out when they released the black album because they became more famous but i dont think so, i really cant listen to the albums after the black album because they just arent metallica personally.everything before that rules except for the days of sloppy mustaine playing i just think the cliff years with kirk are the best and i wish it would be possible to bring it back but cliff burton is no longer with us.RIP!!! but it would be heaven with that lineup again.

  • well I wouldn't call Dave's playing sloppy at all, remember back then they had just written their songs, haven't perfected them or anything. WHen Kirk joined the had just gotten a record deal and therefor had oppertunity to take it to the next lvl. Kirk + Cliff is a greater duo imo because both are heavily influenced by the wah pedal, makes a great duo. But I think Dave is the better player of the two.

  • Cliff Burton is a fuckin`genius!!!

    Cliff R.I.P.

    Kirk is much better than Mustain!

    If you don`t believe me than look at the video "Kirk Hammett - Metallica Guitar - SOLO"!

    Mustain was an ass....

  • You're an Ass!!

  • what kind of bass is Cliff using in that clip? It looks awsum

  • cliff is/was a rickenbacker man

  • kl ty

  • what?

  • ty mean = thank you

  • ah  ...damn i'm old

  • dont worry its internet shourt only ;-d

  • you must have amazing eyesight, cuz i cant even tell how many strings the thing has.i cant even make out the shape of it!

  • every time i saw a close up vid of cliff its always been 4 so i'd GUESS that he's using a 4 here...

  • the shape is quite clearly a ricky

  • RICKENBACKER-4001 WITH A BIG MUFF.

  • wot u tellin me 4?

  • I'M NOT TELLING YOU.

  • well you replied to me....

  • I ment to reply to someone else, I probably clicked on you by mistake.

  • Awesome!!!!:)

    BTW... did anyone else notice that curtain magically opened around 1:14!!!!

    Look right under the MetallicA logo.

  • I fucking love Kill Em' All.

    RIP Cliff

  • 2`30 really great..

  • CLIFF'S HAIR IS AWESOME!!

  • lol, if metallica hadnt kicked dave out the whole band would have blown up into a million pieces. but hes a great guitarist no matter what.

  • Cliff is the only way to Metallica sound

  • there is dave mustaine :))))))) hell yeah dave ;)

  • good ol' me-fuckin'-tallica!!

  • I so fuckin agree.

  • CLIFF+BASS+WAH=FUCKIN AMAZIN!!!
