  • Members of the legendary hard rock band Metallica, James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Trujillo sit down with Zane Lowe to celebrate their 40th anniversary. The band members walk through the incredible story of Metallica, and reminisce on starting out in San Francisco, assembling an elite band of uniquely gifted musicians, and evolving into one of the most famous bands to ever take the stage. Never taking time to pat themselves on the back, Metallica was always driven to look towards the future of rock, and they cite this as the reason for their success. They discuss the influence of Jason Newsted and Bob Rock, and thank the heavy metal bands they competed against for pushing them towards greatness.

      Cliff had a lot of input into the musical production on the first three albums. But Cliff was a musical genius, and had studied music, and music theory.
      Jason was not strong in that way, so I can see where maybe his ideas weren't used or maybe even shrugged off, as irrelevant. Jason is like someone mentioned, an average bass player, adequate, but in no comparison to Cliff.

      @DietMoney 2 года назад +2

      @@elizabethhock4414 based on James’ other interviews on this subject, I think you’re absolutely right. Cliff was just as much a composer as as he was a bass player. My understanding is that Jason came in and wanted to slot with the band with as little creative friction as possible (which I get, these are big egos, it’s a new job for him and he doesn’t want to ruffle feathers right out the gate). James has even spoken about being annoyed Jason would just follow his guitar parts and not deviate. So when he says “we love you but you’re not Cliff”, I think he is talking just as much musically as he is personally.
      I think Jason was a great bass player and one of the best live performers the genre has seen, so this isn’t a slight on him at all.

      I think that James could (finally) admit that he did like Jason after all. It's no excuse for all the bullying they have done to him, but that's his view on Jason's time in the band. Of course there must have been times that James and Jason shared a laugh. I hope that Jason is enjoying himself and spending time with his family and is making music that makes him happy. Also that James and Jason get well along together in current times. Maybe we'll see Jason with the band again when Metallica celebrates their 40th anniversary, similar to what they have done with their 30th anniversary.

      Agree so much. I hate he had to leave. When I was 16 me and my best friend and my brother went to our very first Metallica concert and we were standing at the edge of the balcony screaming every lyric in headbanging the whole show, and Jason acknowledged us and pointed at us and gave us a nod and through the metal “horns” up at us and that just made our night.
      For a lot of us that got into Metallica in the late 80s early 90s. Jason always felt like he belong to and Jason always seem like the one that related to the fans the most. Don’t get me wrong. I love Rob and I think he’s a phenomenal bass player but I hate that Jason had to leave but I understand it at the same time so if we can’t have Jason I’m glad we have Rob but you are so correct. It’s not like Jason is one of the 22 members of Megadeth that no one knows their name, and was just there for an album and a couple tours and then gone by the time the next album came out. No, Jason was a huge part of Metallica.

    Lars: "Whether you like it or not, it's 100 percent us" - Metallica in a nutshell and something that goes back to what even Cliff Burton said back in 1986 about doing things their way. With all the things this band has done it's still mindboggling that people still don't get that and have the audacity to say what they have done in the last 30 years is not Metallica. Further proof that some fans simply never got it.

      They would have gone down this same musical path even if Cliff hadn't passed. He loved all kinds of music and he loved to experiment. He didn't want to go 200 miles an hour on every album, and RTL and MOP are proof of that. All Metallica albums are different and unique in their own way, there is something for everyone.

I was just kind of taken aback by how often he'd interject into the band's stories and when they're formulating their thoughts about what he'd just asked them, he might chip in with his own words to help them along.
