na minha opinião qndo o cliff tava no metallica foi a melhor epoca dai dpois q entro o jason o metallica tava bom + ñ tantoqndo tinha o cliff...dai dpois q o jason saiu o metallica fico um lixo !!
amazing... i got the whole dvd "cunning stunts" and is the most excellent music... i wonder why he left metallica so soon.. My opinion is that since he left metallica died... Jason was metallica. Its sad to see such a dream team come to an end..
Jason Newsted was Metallica's best bass player I think. I mean Cliff Burton was a beast on the bass ans no one will ever come close to cliff but Jason Newsted is way better than that homo robert. And it is true, Jason is the best thing that ever happened to metallica.
well its true robert is better playing bass than jason but it wont chance it that JASON ROCKS !!! and he is best in metallica but rob is more skill full BUT JAOSN ROCKS !!!!!!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
jason sucks compared to former metallica bassist Cliff Burton. look at his solos on youtube. much better than this. Cliff Burton was and is still the best bassist of all time. I bet even James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett and Lars Ulrich would agree and that Cliff would still be in the band if he had not died in a tragic black ice incident. Cliff is the best!! (that includes being better than jason newsted)
all he wanted was to take a year off to record echobrain, IMO that wasnt to much to ask for since they was taking months and months off. --- Newsted4eva
actually he quit cause james didnt want him or the other band members to be part of anything else but metallica so no side projects or anything else. Watch that "some kind of monster" documentary i think its covered on there. either way fucken jason was bad as and I have nothing but the outmost respect for him being able to come into metallica when he did and still stick through all the shit he was put through. WAR JASON and Long live CLIFF!!!
they all had different styles,they were all very good,but in my opinion (I said in MY OPINION) Cliff Burton could shred any bassists balls off,he was just,to me,the best bassist there is,was and ever will be.His speed is unmatched,his great wah/fuzz hendrix style combo is great,and I just think he fit most with metallica.I respect Newsted and Trujillo alot,but they're no Cliff.I wish I coulda saw him live though.
no doubt that Burton was the best but newsted just had a great style with his solos they were different....O yeah and ummm Kirk is a San Francisco Local... and he is fillipino. o yeah
why is this even a discussion? look cliff burton was great with metallica. he's dead theres nothing we could do. we all love him and remember him jason wasnt just a fill in guy he was a basist for them and a damn good one. and robert is the bassist now thats it. they all have their own unique style. and they all are great.
Dude, have you ever played with a pick on a bass? Did you notice that you cant play really fast?? I play both,and my fingers go faster than my pick.. So Jason IS way better! ;)
even tho i am not much of a fan of anything since ...and justice, i think that(for me) Metallica was never better with their musicianship than at this time. Kirk and Jason actually seemed like part of the band.
Cliff was unique and one HELL of a bass player at the age of 24.. But Jason is the most "Metallica" of them all. I love Robert "The Metalgorilla" Trujillo aswell, sure he's got more technique, but Jason was still more Metallica than Cliff and Rob put together, no matter the skill-level...
How can you seriously be offended by what i think about Jason? And because you're not Robert Trujillo himself it dosen't make any sense why you would be. If you dont agree with what i think you can just keep it to yourself. So damn immature.
i have heard many people say bad things about jason but after hearing this i can rule all that i have heard out this is very rhythmic. It must have been hard for him to try and take cliffs place though
Jason isn't Metallica in fact. For about 3 years? And I don't think Robert is better than Jason...they r completly different in way they play...in technic and all this stuff. But personally I prefer Jason Newsted. Greetings
i really miss jason it just does not seem the same without him. it would really make my day if he was to come back. i though he was a great bass player. because of him i switch from wanting to play a rythm to a bass he rocks... miss you mr. newstead
although im strictly an old metallica fan i can now say after seeing this i respect jason as a musician his solos may not be as mind blowing as cliffs but hes still great
I miss Jason Newsted, he was just so damn cool, man. Metallica won't be the same without him. seriously, everyone is always so worried about technicality, it's about how much the music means, not how many notes you fit in a single bar. Damn man have respect for Jason.
great fan of jason, he had the personality, voice and the playing abillity. Cliff's shoes were never going to be filled by anyone. I dont think Robert is right in metallica, just doesn't have what cliff and jason had
And Robert and Jason didn't have what Cliff had. And Cliff didn't have what Robert and Jason had. They had all the things that make a perfect bass player.
i love jason's personality... all the headbanging, backing vocals, and he look like one of that dudes that u can hang out and have a beer.... but still im very curious of how would be metallica in all of the eras they had if Cliff werent death =(
No doubt Cliff was good, but I think Jason gets a bum rap because he's not cliff. neither is that rob guy, either. I'd Say Jason is better than both simply because he's more awesome. And this is a kick-ass solo.
Jason was proberly the best bassist Metallica ever had( after Cliff) i don't like Rthe Rob. Jason made theMetallica "spirit" Rob don't have it AT All! JASON MY GOD!!!
There was somthing about Jason I loved and miss.Always giving the crowd so much energy the backing vocals.Always wearing a tallica shirt when palying.That era of the band was my fav
I second that comment.. my favourite era too.. Cliff was unique in many ways, true innovator, but in the role of Metallica bassist Jason was even better.. more solid..
LMAO your here trying to insult me by saying that my mom types for me when you cant type yourself especially the word "writing" i cant believe u dont know how to spell "writing" and dont fucking say its a typo because theres no way thats a typo putting an R,G and H as a typo. Fucking loser. How did you go from 89 to 9 years old? Only lowlife faggot losers still talk about moms.
