Don't diss Newstead he's a million times better than you or True-wiggle-oh. Robert makes everything look really hard, looks like a skaterpunk, and wiggles instead of moshing. Burton was good no denying, better than Jason but Jason is still very good. And there'snothing wrong with playing pickstyle, most virtuoso bassists do this at some stage and it gives a much more punchy sound. Don't diss what you don't understand!
Cunning Stunts was awesome, they got the idead of the stage from another concert (dont remeber which) Jason is at his best here, he was such a good bassist. Shame he left tho. :( He decided to go with Echobrain instead (he said that Echobrain would soon become famous) I hope they do for Jason's sake. If I was him I would've regretted leaving Metallica more than anything. U rule Jason.N!
whether you play with a pick or fingers, or a spoon etc etc, is down to personal preferance more than anything. i think this i good. the whole of cunning stunts was ace.
Have you ever played a bass with your fingers or have you even played a bass, It isn't so easy to play with fingers as you think and theres not the right way to play bass, you can play it as you like.
sumtimes its gives a better sound, or more resonence wen u use a plectrum, it's also a matter of opinion, i mean all the best bassists either use picks or 'fingersmore' 2 play
Dude, honestly thats like saying Steve Vai plays real fast and if you cant play fast your a shit guitar player. Who cares if he plays with a pick, you just seem to be jealous because a bass player who plays with a pick was only in the biggest band in the world. Honestly no one gives a shit
So wait, they should play finger-style because YOU play finger-style ? What are you, four ? Get a fucking life and drop the arrogance; Jason's pick would crush your fingers. =D
Uhm... where was Orion? I think you are confusing Jason's original manifestation of My Friend of Misery with Orion. If you watch the Ultimate Album on the Black Album, he plays that part. He originally intended My Friend of Misery to be an instrumental, and that portion right before they go into Sanitarium was a part of it.
Jason must be the ugliest man alive, but at least he can play an instrument decently. It’s a pity he can’t write very good songs. They’re boring and typical of 17 year high school dropout.
I think those two guys should have left the band as soon as they joined and did their own thing cuz they were the only good members and Then he wouldnt have died.
Awesome!! He may not be one of the best metallica bassists.. But he's a bloody talented bassist.

Jason's a good bassist but he's the weakest of all of metallica's bassist, Burton was completely insane.
And yeah, anyone who plays bass with a pic is a wannabe guitarist, not a bassist.

i get why he uses a pick now, when he first had a bass he did not have and amp, so he used the pick for a louder sound

Dudes, The bass parts were recoreded by Jason Newstead here, not Cliff.
This was recorded in 1997/1998 or something like that, and this isin't the time of the Cliff Burton here.
