It's like u Wana scream don't go to Europe!!!! Also, in the BTM 98 they cut Ross halfin off we hear him say "lars took over from them on"...they left out what he said before that he said. "Cliff ran that band, absolutely nothing happened without his approval first...I don't think people realized just how important he was" Also I think there was on of the fan cans that had complete interviews and that back in the day. Anyhow it's sad cliff was looking forward to Japan too. But in other interviews I have somewhere he's like in 1987 were gonna start recording...which is sad cause he never saw that year.

He's drinking a beer from a cup 01:34 he said this beers holding on and no doubt he puffed the splifage before going in too 04:10 that famous cliff smile from the 98 behind the music....u just want to grab him and take him home....it's sad beyond sad played no part in his own death...I hope he died before waking up....not the fukin bus landing on him a 2nd time...gees cliff just stands out for his personality and his mannerisms...u can tell he was the leader
Cliff always looks legendary . With his hair and outfit looks like he just got done working with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin . Lol . We all miss him
I always thought that he looked like he could be in Deep Purple. Even though he was only in his early 20s, the way he acted was very mature. His entire aura must've been very intimidating, you can tell that he was very intelligent by the way he carried himself. And I always felt like James truly looked up to Cliff and had deep admiration for him.
Feels like (besides all the pain and grief caused by his passing)he was such an open, calm and kind soul that maybe his journey down here was full circle, if there's higher things (on a spiritual level, beyond the here and now) it's people like Cliff they await for..
Now what you have to wonder is, did they coordinate that, or all just wake up in a Misfits kind of mood. That's one of my favorite memories of those days. Picking out a t-shirt in the morning. Hmmm ... what mood am i in? Is this a Van Halen day? Or maybe Skynyrd.
Wasn't Cliff the one that got the guys into the Misfits? Believe I read that they didn't really care for them at first but Cliff kept playing them as he was a fan. So it kinda grew on them?
Tim Wildes yes it was due to Cliff’s influence that they become misfits fans. Cliff tuned the other guys on to lots of new music they wouldn’t have listened to normally.
Cliff was the most down to earth guy. He hated that fans called him a god (this from his sister). Cliff didn't like the fame either. He was just a guy who played bass in his mind.
33:21 When Cliff and James look at each other and burst out in laugh. You can actually feel that they are a family and really good friends. Now i can see why James was in a huge pain when Cliff died. Its so sad actually. :/
Yeah. It’s also evident that Cliff had a big influence on James especially, he looked up to him like a big brother. If anything was cool with Cliff it was cool with James.
Metal is still here and doing well in other countries, there are many sub lables of Metal, but to me it's all loud hard heavy kick ass rock music, I like something from almost every form of Metal.
I understand that, but the fact that he was so close to Cliff, wasn't a reason to treat Jason like crap for the next 15 years. Too bad he couldn't deal with this issues in a different way.
38:50 - question about parents. James has no parents. He's mother has passed away, father left years ago. Sad question for him, but he's laughing it off like a badass. Well played Mr Hetfield.
MehYam2112 I’m just giving my opinion maybe In there minds they didn’t see it as the best album but we’re proud of it and were still shocked that they reached such a level of appreciation for there work they at the time were like “holy shit our band”???
M.O.P. just may be the greatest metal album ever. I saw them open for Ozzy on that tour here in NY. I didn't realize as a 16 year old, that I was seeing such a great performance. I knew they were great but now looking back on it...Wow.
@@rrguitar1 I saw the same tour (Ultimate Sin/Master of Puppets) in St. Louis, MO. When I was in 8th grade. Awesome show; so glad I got to see Cliff Burton!
They Fired Dave Mustaine and gave him a 'bus ticket" from NY back to LA, cheap fuks should have bought him a plane ticket. Megadeth worked out Great !!
I noticed that too...it made me very sad, Lars seemd exited and looking forward headlining and stuff...not knowing they where going to loose their friend
This is haunting how Lars is talking about their 8 weeks of headlining in Europe only to pan over to Cliff, whose life would end during those eight weeks. Life is precious. RIP Cliff Burton - God of Bass.
Very haunting. They're also touring with Ozzy, which lost Randy Rhoades to a freak plane accident a few years prior. And Lars was talking about Dave and Megadeth, and of course we know that history, but also that Dave would write a great song about Burton's death too. A lot of depth in that 10 seconds of video and audio.
@@samsmith3025 James Hetfield in 1997 Reload era is closer to the James in the video than who he is now. His transformation is truly amazing and all for the better
When James said, the were going to Japan the end of the year, while Cliff was sitting next to him and he didnt know that Cliff was not going to be there...
totally love how cliff still rocked the 70s style hes obviously the least trendy looks more like a deep purple member im sure if he lived metallica wouldve stayed more down to earth and end up like motorhead
Cliff wore what he wanted. His sister tried to get him to replace his shoes, and he was like "why?" Also it was said that his older brother was a big influence on him, and after he passed he wanted to pay tribute. So the bell bottoms jeans were part of it.
Interviewer: "Quote: Metallica have sold out. What's your response to something like that?" James: "We're not too worried about them" Cliff: "We do what we wanna do, you know. If they consider that selling out, then whatever". James: "There's a lot of people that think you sold just 'cos you're on a major label and are very popular" Cliff: "Or maybe you don't play a thousand miles an hour the whole time" James: "We'd be doing the same thing if we were still on an independent label" This was in 1986. Cliff is still alive... They were considered sellouts at this point already because they were doing something different... Then a lot pf people called them sellouts when they did the musicvideo for One.... and when they made The Black Album.... and when they made Load... etc... It's never been easy being Metallica. First they had to build a following and make an album. Then they made a second album and were called sellouts because of Fade to Black... A lot of metal fans really don't like their music evolving... Haters gotta hate, I guess :p
Its a strange thing metal fans had up to the 80's. All thoses 70's bands doing heavy songs, progressive songs , bluesy , jazzy , baroque and funky influenced stuff .. Nobody gave a fuck. It was bands Metallica grew up on. When they adapted , as others bands, that mindset in their own : Sell out ! Its like thrash metal fans are amnesic. It still like this in many ways . Its crazy
i met cliff in 1986 at 8am, when they went on that night he was wearing the same clothes, no gimmicks just a real down to earth guy, too bad the soul of metallica had to die three months after i met him.
WOW, this is like a time warp, like Cliff never left. Seeing him so casual and happy like the rest of them, is so surreal. I agree with others, when the band talks about being in Europe, after August, and Cliff saying they will continue to tour into '87. It was also emotional when the crew guy said that Cliff was the oldest, at 23....24 was simply not his number. Regardless, this is pure gold. (Lars being asked), "What impact do you think you'll have on the future of heavy metal?" Oh, just become the biggest metal band the world's ever known.
Cliff did precious few interviews in his short time with us. This is probably the best one in existence. There was a decent audio only one he did on the radio back in '84 but nothing as interesting as this. It is surreal. All these years I was curious to know more about the guy. The definition of tragedy.
I got a cliff interview with Harold o from the metallimansion in june of 86 I believe...starts off talking bout the day on the green, clear ccrisp. I had that for years so long that its a real audio file! crazy
It’s pretty amazing how much musical knowledge cliff had at such a young age. And the level of song writing and musicianship for guys in their early 20’s is crazy.
Looking at a young baby faced Lars and the rest of the band is cool. One thing that stands out is Lars speaks his mind very effectively. Very articulate!
photographer Ross Halfin said "cliff ran that band, absolutely nothing happened without his consent, I don't think people realize how Important he was" in the metallica behind the music we hear Ross say. Lars took over from then on.... they cut his quote about cliff from the final doc, but I seen some of the stuff they had cut from that doc. damn must be over 20 years ago now and Ross said that
Say what you will about Lars drumming, but you can't deny that he truly enjoys talking and getting to know his fans. Even nowadays when you see videos of the meet and greets I feel he and rob truly enjoy interacting. I mean he was on the phone with that one guy for a while, and they were having an actual conversation. That speaks alot of a person.
He never gave himself enough credit even though he was a phenomenal drummer back then, but he has admitted in recent years that he was very insecure about his drumming back then and he'd over compensate for it when performing in concert.
Lars didn’t have the verbal abuse growing up and it shows in his social interactions. He’s able to convey feelings and warmth to whoever he is talking to. It’s great to see this early footage before the super success of Metallica.
MY METALLICA STORY: When James mentions in the video that they are going to Texas in June since ozzy had left to Japan, it brings me back to when I was in 8th grade and Metallica was coming to South Texas to play at the Villarreal Convention Center in McAllen Tx. I was supposed to go with my cousin but my mom didn't let me go. I was only 14 years old. He ended up going and got a green guitar pick. Not only did he get a guitar pick, but he got to witness by far one of the most Historical Heavy Metal Bands of all time in its purest, and rawness as it gets. And to this date, they take me back to those teenage years of "what ifs" and "almost" possibilities. Then months later, the tragic death of Mr. Cliff Burton comes out on MTv news. I was like, NO!!!!! They were so close to home two months earlier and I had a chance to see them. Then in 1989, with the injustice for all tour, I had another chance to see them in the summer in Florida. My brother was going to see them somewhere in Tampa Bay and he told me if you get here earlier, ill take you. Well, I got there a week late and all he had for me were the memories recorded in a Walkman that he snucked in. Then as I am coming back on the greyhound bus, as we pass Houston Tx, I see on the Houston Rocket's The Summit Arena that Metallica was playing the next night. I just looked at that marquee through my bus window until that opportunity faded. Finally, Im out of high school and im going to college my first semester when the Black album came out. I remember being in class, and this guy next to me was listening to Metallica in his portable CD player. So we start talking about the new album and out of nowhere he pulls out 2 tickets to see Metallica in Corpus Christi Tx. Now, Corpus is about 2 1/2 to 3 hrs from Brownsville Tx. Not far, but too far for me when I don't even have a vehicle to drive. I went to school in a bicycle for my first 2 years. So yes, another opportunity passed me by. So years pass, I graduate from college, get a job in 98, buy a car and Metallica is headlining the lollapalooza tour. I had a coworker at the time that ended up going to see them and I didn't know that she liked them. She comes back and tells me guess where my husband and I went this past weekend? I was like, I don't know. She said, we went to go see Metallica at the Retama Park in San Antonio Tx. I almost choked her. LOL. So, im almost hitting 30 and I still haven't seen my favorite band Metallica. Opportunity knocks once again in 2000 as Metallica announces a summer tour called Sanitarium. Boom! I buy my ticket for the Dallas show at Texas stadium in Dallas Tx. I think it was Kid Rock, Korn, System of a Down, etc... This time I buy a round trip ticket from Harlingen Tx to Dallas and back to Harlingen airport the next day. I was set! Then, out of nowhere, I get selected as a 12th member juror in a civil case that lasted ALL summer long. Yes, everyday I had to report to jury duty for $7 a day. It was a BIG case with lots of history in our home town. Anyway, the dilemma was that the concert was on Sunday and I had to be back early Monday for jury. Well, luck was in my favor this time cause the presiding judge gave us a whole week to enjoy our summer and it just so happened it was that Monday following the Sunday night concert. I was ready! So here comes the weekend and its Saturday already. My flight left Sunday morning. I was out that night and got home like around 3 in the morning. I couldn't sleep of excitement that finally I was going to see my BAND. I wake up to like 2 different alarms. I wasn't about to miss my flight due to oversleeping. Luggage check, concert ticket check, airline ticket check. I get on my mustang and head out to the highway. As I am driving, I start thinking about the flight. Yes, to this point I hadn't been on a plane since I was like 14 years old. I was 29. So, the 1st couple of miles into my journey to the airport, FEAR of flying kicks in out of nowhere and it lingers in my head. So I do the unthinkable and exit the highway and head home with a SADNESS but a relief that I was no longer going to fly. It was about $500 value of flight and concert ticket. But wait! I find out that James didn't play that night due to an illness, and that Metallica was going to make up that show when James got better. So now, I have a flight ticket and concert ticket that i need to change for the rescheduled concert date. I choose the 2nd night show at the Dallas Mavericks Arena. I go to the airport and inquire about changing my unused ticket. I'll had to do was pay extra fees for changing it. While I am at the airport I am seeing all these planes land and take off and again FEAR kicks in and I just give up on the whole thing. I call it the "The Thing Shouldn't be" or The thing that didn't happen. Then months later, Jason Newsted quits Metallica. I was like NO!!!!!!!! years later I finally did see Metallica in the next Sanitarium Tour of 03 in Houston and Dallas Tx. Now it was Robert Trujillo as bassist. In 04, I bought tickets to see them in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Austin, and the best one in Lubbock Tx. Why Lubbock you ask? I entered the meet and greet to all 5 cities and won it for the Lubbock show. I got to meet all members, talked to them for a bit wanted to express admiration for when I was a young kid but i just couldn't. Too nervous as they approached me. Its unbelievable to see them right in front of you. Now, I try to see them when they come down to Texas. Haven't missed a Tour since then. Thank you for reading my COMMENT OR SHOULD I SAY MY METALLICA STORY.
That's a whole lot of missed opportunities. Nice story! I missed out on seeing them in my hometown of Bergen, Norway which was a TOTAL bummer because I was in the Army at the time (we have 1 year of compulsory military service in Norway) . Loved being in the Army that year, but I missed out on Metallica & Iron Maiden that year (I had seen Maiden 2 times before that though).. I've never seen Metallica live, but I've seen Iron Maiden a couple of times, they're great..
Even though it was a long thread and my a.d.d. almost starting to kick in, I read your awesome story and thinking wow this could be a premise for like a Metallica based film similar to Detroit Rock City with KISS. I'm also thinking side note wise just how lucky to have been a kid during that time. Anyways, Rock On bro!
RIP Cliff Burton(Clifford Lee Burton) The masterpiece bassguitar player who was an insane character in Metallica Well will never forget you :( :/ 😞 Rest In Peace legend
Pfft. Some people even say they sold out with “Fade to Black,” from the previous album Ride the Lightning. I love Metallica’s music, but all this “they sold out” comments are getting old.
Nick Manory By different people. Truthfully, they sold out when they put Escape on Ride because they did it thinking it would get them on the radio. This is why James is so reluctant to play it live. Anyway, I love the song, but those were James' words, more or less.
Metal elitists are all a bunch of suckers. They'd always say the band sold out just because they made a melodic tune instead of a fucking thrash one. Metallica was always known to be the most melodic one out of the big 4, the joint of chaos and harmony, that is Metallica, Cliff himself said that back then (he said something like that, I don't remember the exact same words). People just don't want to understand.
people saying they where sellouts had nothing to do with the music. It was the fact that they came out the gate saying kill all the record labels, and fuck MTV and that there this kind of band and not that kind of band... and they slowly did everything they said they wouldn't.
+Marc Andrew Narimatsu (Marcu D.) Some people say they sold out with Kill Em All by signing to a major label. Being called "sellouts" is something Metallica has never been a stranger to. Honestly, I couldn't give a shit. I like all of their music. They don't need more money. They have more money than they could spend in 20 lifetimes. They write and record Nye music because it's what they love to do. They've always key their hearts guide their musical direction. Any time someone reaches a new level of success, there's gonna be a group of idiots trying to knock them back down. I just listen to the music.
I am literally enchanted by Cliff. He’s so cool, , funny… thinking about him, makes come to my mind only good things. His eyes and smile are beatiful and always move me. Cliff makes me feel ambivalent feelings. Sadness for his tragic loss, serenity and joy because this guy certainly bring positive things to his bandmates and to those around him. It’s not a casuality if after so many years so many people miss him even if they didn't have the privilege of knowing him. I’m one of these. Love you forever Cliff. A big hug to my beautiful red haired angel.
It probably didn't mean much to James, Lars and Kirk at the time but they must treasure this footage of Cliff not so long before we lost him. I doubt the next generation of metal heads appreciate just how important Cliff was to Metallica. He was HUGE. Everything he did was never surpassed - great to see him here, thanks for sharing
i’m a gen z metalhead and i KNOW how important cliff was to metallica. he made the band better. ik i wasn’t alive when he was but ive heard all of the metallica songs with cliff and ive seen so many videos with him and he is SO talented and i love him so much. he left too soon
IDK if you are gay, but your comment reads as gay (IMO anyway). I find this ironic b/c Cliff is rolling his eyes at the mention of "gay" looking glam bands.
Cheetah Thunders. Maybe they are not male?? You do know that metal bands have female fans too. And there was nothing even remotely sexual/"gay" about OG's comment.
@@mdnblues There is that possibility! However, a lot more than 50% of metal comments are by males. Is it bad for me to say that IF a male says "the eye roll OMG look at the attitude" that's kinda gay? Do you feel "gay" is insulting? ;) Or do you feel that me saying such comments by males is kinda gay is inaccurate? Yes it was sexual. It sounded like the OP was swooning.
I've been watching a lot of Metallica videos from Cliff's era after finishing reading his biography. Even though I've always been a fan of the band, it has given me a different perspective. It's quite emotional; as with many of us, Metallica is not just a band but a part of our lives.
I’m half way through that book myself. Makes me look at this interview differently. I wish there was more footage of Cliff talking and just hanging out.
I'll never forget cliff when I met him at Hollywood Palladium in 1985 he was not even drinking he was already sobering up he was drinking Evian water when I was talking to him I will never forget that concert metallica armored saint Adam bomb and God bless me that night
He said hella in 1985 or 1986. He is from the bay area for sure! I know Denmark, L.A. then bay area but that is where that slang started I can promise you.
Let’s be honest, we’re all just here for Cliff.
I'm not here for Lars I'll tell you that
Vivaan Shyam not to shy away from the other members yes I’m just here for cliff lol

@Tobias Richard ain't no one falling for that
33:20 makes your heart smile, Love this two guys
😭😭❤️
Then James spent the next 20 years being an asshole to Jason.
I think cliff and James were closest like bestfriends James has a huge respect and love for cliff he even said he wants to see him again at some point
She had a fax machine
She kept her printer clean
She had the best damn modem
That I'd ever seen.
Neil, that was brilliant!
@@adambenedict6155 I can't take credit. I saw the comment on AC/DC's You Shook me all Night Long video. 😁
Genius
I thought that once
@Fuck You I'm a Jelly Bean You basing this off the tense of the previous lines or off the original AC/DC lyrics? Because in both cases you're wrong.
35:52 - They're so chill. I want to scream at these young kids, "you just recorded the best metal album ever made".
MehYam2112 I’m just giving my opinion maybe In there minds they didn’t see it as the best album but we’re proud of it and were still shocked that they reached such a level of appreciation for there work they at the time were like “holy shit our band”???
M.O.P. just may be the greatest metal album ever. I saw them open for Ozzy on that tour here in NY.
I didn't realize as a 16 year old, that I was seeing such a great performance. I knew they were great but now looking back on it...Wow.
@@rrguitar1 I saw the same tour (Ultimate Sin/Master of Puppets) in St. Louis, MO. When I was in 8th grade. Awesome show; so glad I got to see Cliff Burton!
I love rtl more than mop but i still love mop
That smirk on Cliff's face was a joy to the world. We miss you, man.
43:26
Cliff:I’m into a lot of different stuff. Classical music,punk
James:beer
The AlcohollicA time.
lexther13 the fact James puts his beer straight into his cup... damn.
His belch on the bus is hysterical.
R.I.P. Alcohollica (1981-2001), but I still love Metallica anyways 🙂🍺
jason and cliff were the best things metallica had, so yeah, with two of them gone band is never the same :D
They Fired Dave Mustaine and gave him a 'bus ticket" from NY back to LA, cheap fuks should have bought him a plane ticket. Megadeth worked out Great !!
38:00 "Europe a couple of months, and then Japan at the end of the year". So sad man, Rest in peace Brother Cliff).
had the same thought hearing Lars talk about their upcoming plans :(
thinking about what was going to happen
I noticed that too...it made me very sad, Lars seemd exited and looking forward headlining and stuff...not knowing they where going to loose their friend
Alberto Arriagada duck dude
exactly what i thought
Seem like Cliff now what will happen to him he quiet not like his previous interview R.I.P Cliff
Cliff seemed like the coolest guy. His smile was amazing.
So sad to hear James say, " off to Europe and then Japan at the end of the year" RIP Cliff
These are the guys who made me want to play guitar 26 years ago. Still doing it.
Love the channel bro \m/
Same here man. Same here. First Metal band I ever fell in love with I was 10 years old
and still playing their oldies!
it all changed when cliff died.
cliff is the reason why i dont play my bass with a pick
Cliff Burton seemed very fun to hang out with
"Yeah"
-Any Metallica member when talking on the phone.
it's amazing to think that these kids wrote the greatest heavy metal album of all time at age 23.
My friends and I say this all the time. How tf did they do it. So young and so influential.
Natural talent.
@@TrumpDoesntWipe Nope its hardwork
@@dasistthomsen9
Natural talent with hard work.
@@TrumpDoesntWipe There is no natural talent , its just people that have no clue about what it takes , see it that way
Awesome they were just kids. Cliff will forever be young.
They were all in their 20's so kids? Adults.
Monster Gonzo c’mon man. 20s are most def kids.
Say what you want about Metallica, but they have earned thier stripes.
9:10 you hear a burp and a fart and James laugh lol
LOOOOOOL
lmfao
“BELCH”
“FLAAWP”
“heheheh”
Well spotted lol 🤘
then a laughter from what sounds like James
17:52 How every uncle answers the phone when they call you.
As still a new uncle this is very true
They just call you without knowing who they're calling
This is haunting how Lars is talking about their 8 weeks of headlining in Europe only to pan over to Cliff, whose life would end during those eight weeks. Life is precious. RIP Cliff Burton - God of Bass.
Very haunting. They're also touring with Ozzy, which lost Randy Rhoades to a freak plane accident a few years prior. And Lars was talking about Dave and Megadeth, and of course we know that history, but also that Dave would write a great song about Burton's death too. A lot of depth in that 10 seconds of video and audio.
LeadCounsel What song?
Ken Sturm in my darkest hour I think
GLrecordings I heard it was a tout le monde. I think in my darkest hour is about a chick
Yolo bro
10:15
Lars: Megadeth
James: Who?!!

haha, me too!!

Cliff strolling in with a cig..."You got an ashtray". Love this.
It was a very common thing to ask for everywhere!
Time stamp?
What Paolo says, we smoked everywhere!..
13:21 James sitting there in the corner is so funny Idk why xD
Yeah lol
JAJAJAJAJ XD
Crazy to see how different yet similar their personalities were back then
Oh yes... Cliff changed his look and his name twice!
@@Mike-sg5is That's a good way of thinking about it
Ive noticed this too, James seems by far to have changed completely and the most compared to 2019. Hes like a different person.
@@samsmith3025 James Hetfield in 1997 Reload era is closer to the James in the video than who he is now. His transformation is truly amazing and all for the better

hi friends
When James said, the were going to Japan the end of the year, while Cliff was sitting next to him and he didnt know that Cliff was not going to be there...
40:35 HAHAH Cliff's reaction tho😂😂😂
can you imagine the people that were on the phone with these guys that are watching this now that know it was them on the the other line?
Especially the person on the line with the legend Cliff.
totally love how cliff still rocked the 70s style hes obviously the least trendy looks more like a deep purple member im sure if he lived metallica wouldve stayed more down to earth and end up like motorhead
Cliff loved that Canadian tuxedo
I don't remember anyone wearing jean jackets and bootcuts by that time in the states. Cliff was DGAF before there was DGAF
@@redlikewater2453 100 percent agree Cliff would have Said Fuck you Puss 😆🤘
Cliff wore what he wanted. His sister tried to get him to replace his shoes, and he was like "why?" Also it was said that his older brother was a big influence on him, and after he passed he wanted to pay tribute. So the bell bottoms jeans were part of it.
Yeah he never really could shake that deep purple swag. Cliff single-handedly kept the Canadian tuxedo stylish decades beyond
Interviewer: "Quote: Metallica have sold out. What's your response to something like that?"
James: "We're not too worried about them"
Cliff: "We do what we wanna do, you know. If they consider that selling out, then whatever".
James: "There's a lot of people that think you sold just 'cos you're on a major label and are very popular"
Cliff: "Or maybe you don't play a thousand miles an hour the whole time"
James: "We'd be doing the same thing if we were still on an independent label"
This was in 1986. Cliff is still alive... They were considered sellouts at this point already because they were doing something different... Then a lot pf people called them sellouts when they did the musicvideo for One.... and when they made The Black Album.... and when they made Load... etc... It's never been easy being Metallica. First they had to build a following and make an album. Then they made a second album and were called sellouts because of Fade to Black... A lot of metal fans really don't like their music evolving... Haters gotta hate, I guess :p
Absolutely. Drives me nuts when people say "Cliff would never have let that happen!"
well said
Its a strange thing metal fans had up to the 80's.
All thoses 70's bands doing heavy songs, progressive songs , bluesy , jazzy , baroque and funky influenced stuff ..
Nobody gave a fuck.
It was bands Metallica grew up on.
When they adapted , as others bands, that mindset in their own : Sell out !
Its like thrash metal fans are amnesic.
It still like this in many ways .
Its crazy
1:45 Kirk is mumbling Rats In The Cellar - Aerosmith.
Haha, I love that! Love Rocks!
So weird to see Metallica answering the phone just like regular people
C.H.B because they are regular people wtf
Wardo Melena ikr wtf
Brandon Booze they are god for you or what
Wardo Melena what do you mean I just agreed with you
MOST REGULAR PEOPLE WOULD SAY...oops wrong video lol. Love Metallica and Pantera.
This is really amazing footage and seeing cliff talk more and interact more im so blown away thank you to uploader for finding this
MonsteR it’s from the deluxe box set, they didn’t have to find it.
Brian Talbot i had no idea lol i dont have the box but yeah still awesome video
You're a fan but had no idea that MOP was just released in a beautiful box????
blackmoreOrion lmao i did but i didnt know this was with it man! 😂
it's a remaster. Audiophiles don't buy remasters. We only buy the masters. (first presses between 1986 to 1989 in the master of puppets case).
I cant get over Cliff Burton’s death its so sad seeing him alive and well
Hope Cliff is doing fine in heaven
I think I am a reincarnation of cliff
I HAVE THE SAME MIDDLE NAME AS HIM
Lol u lucky
@@leopardsammy1306 ikr
Do u have steam
Wot dat
34:42 Cliff looking at us. gave me the goosebump
Is coffee okay?
Kirk: no give me a beer
i met cliff in 1986 at 8am, when they went on that night he was wearing the same clothes, no gimmicks just a real down to earth guy, too bad the soul of metallica had to die three months after i met him.
Dennis the menace you're an idiot
@Richard Skipper
* You're *
Thrashmetal4lyfe ok whoosh
The soul is a myth and it's James who wrote the music.
Eazy E shut your bitch ass up
At 9:40 I wonder if Lars and the caller were talking about Dave Mustain?
alonzo2k very possible, this is filmed the same year as peace sells
He is discussing Mustaine, he's also praising Peace Sells when he says 'his second album', something he has always said he did back when it came out.
@@kirrithkovacs5097 what's wake up dead?
@@alonzo2k opening track on peace sells, you can hear him discussing the album in this video.
A bit later you can hear form lars "megadeth tour", so yeah
Cliff was so cool and laid back, even at such a young age. Rest in peace
Is coffee ok nah just give me beer
haha awesome
Nah. Pass me a Joint and a 🎸
🤣🤣🤣
Kirk was Hung over!!!!
WOW, this is like a time warp, like Cliff never left. Seeing him so casual and happy like the rest of them, is so surreal. I agree with others, when the band talks about being in Europe, after August, and Cliff saying they will continue to tour into '87. It was also emotional when the crew guy said that Cliff was the oldest, at 23....24 was simply not his number.
Regardless, this is pure gold. (Lars being asked), "What impact do you think you'll have on the future of heavy metal?"
Oh, just become the biggest metal band the world's ever known.
Cliff did precious few interviews in his short time with us. This is probably the best one in existence. There was a decent audio only one he did on the radio back in '84 but nothing as interesting as this. It is surreal. All these years I was curious to know more about the guy.
The definition of tragedy.
I said the exact same thing, didn't feel right seeing this yet knowing all would change.
That is so true. When watching it, you don't feel like you are watching something that happened when you were 32 years younger.
Ben Bond cliff turned 24 in feb 86 this was may or june 86 right?
I got a cliff interview with Harold o from the metallimansion in june of 86 I believe...starts off talking bout the day on the green, clear ccrisp. I had that for years so long that its a real audio file! crazy
They looked so badasses and still do. Rest in Peace Cliff.
It’s pretty amazing how much musical knowledge cliff had at such a young age. And the level of song writing and musicianship for guys in their early 20’s is crazy.
Looking at a young baby faced Lars and the rest of the band is cool.
One thing that stands out is Lars speaks his mind very effectively.
Very articulate!
He'd only been in the US for 6 years at this stage too. Blows my mind how well and easily some people can pick up a second language.
@@stevenjon1347 It's very common in Europe to know more than one language.
photographer Ross Halfin said
"cliff ran that band, absolutely nothing happened without his consent, I don't think people realize how Important he was"
in the metallica behind the music we hear Ross say. Lars took over from then on.... they cut his quote about cliff from the final doc, but I seen some of the stuff they had cut from that doc. damn must be over 20 years ago now and Ross said that
35:06 “it’s just a matter of time” Cliff on Metallica doing a video...
That was a good point. So many people have talked thinks like "uuh with cliff they would never done a video" and all kind of stuff before.

“Step into the ORIFICE.”-James
Cliff genuinely looks and seems like the coolest and most sweetest person ever 🖤
Cliff seemed like the coolest person ever. I wish that i had known him 😥😥
Say what you will about Lars drumming, but you can't deny that he truly enjoys talking and getting to know his fans. Even nowadays when you see videos of the meet and greets I feel he and rob truly enjoy interacting. I mean he was on the phone with that one guy for a while, and they were having an actual conversation. That speaks alot of a person.
Lars, the fans and Napster. XD
He never gave himself enough credit even though he was a phenomenal drummer back then, but he has admitted in recent years that he was very insecure about his drumming back then and he'd over compensate for it when performing in concert.
Lars didn’t have the verbal abuse growing up and it shows in his social interactions. He’s able to convey feelings and warmth to whoever he is talking to. It’s great to see this early footage before the super success of Metallica.
Lars is the biggest egomanaic douch
Michael Coriglianol idiot
29:10 "Try not to rock"

3:28 James starts looking into the camera and right after looks at Kirk... lol that's kinda akward
MY METALLICA STORY: When James mentions in the video that they are going to Texas in June since ozzy had left to Japan, it brings me back to when I was in 8th grade and Metallica was coming to South Texas to play at the Villarreal Convention Center in McAllen Tx. I was supposed to go with my cousin but my mom didn't let me go. I was only 14 years old. He ended up going and got a green guitar pick. Not only did he get a guitar pick, but he got to witness by far one of the most Historical Heavy Metal Bands of all time in its purest, and rawness as it gets. And to this date, they take me back to those teenage years of "what ifs" and "almost" possibilities. Then months later, the tragic death of Mr. Cliff Burton comes out on MTv news. I was like, NO!!!!! They were so close to home two months earlier and I had a chance to see them. Then in 1989, with the injustice for all tour, I had another chance to see them in the summer in Florida. My brother was going to see them somewhere in Tampa Bay and he told me if you get here earlier, ill take you. Well, I got there a week late and all he had for me were the memories recorded in a Walkman that he snucked in. Then as I am coming back on the greyhound bus, as we pass Houston Tx, I see on the Houston Rocket's The Summit Arena that Metallica was playing the next night. I just looked at that marquee through my bus window until that opportunity faded. Finally, Im out of high school and im going to college my first semester when the Black album came out. I remember being in class, and this guy next to me was listening to Metallica in his portable CD player. So we start talking about the new album and out of nowhere he pulls out 2 tickets to see Metallica in Corpus Christi Tx. Now, Corpus is about 2 1/2 to 3 hrs from Brownsville Tx. Not far, but too far for me when I don't even have a vehicle to drive. I went to school in a bicycle for my first 2 years. So yes, another opportunity passed me by. So years pass, I graduate from college, get a job in 98, buy a car and Metallica is headlining the lollapalooza tour. I had a coworker at the time that ended up going to see them and I didn't know that she liked them. She comes back and tells me guess where my husband and I went this past weekend? I was like, I don't know. She said, we went to go see Metallica at the Retama Park in San Antonio Tx. I almost choked her. LOL. So, im almost hitting 30 and I still haven't seen my favorite band Metallica. Opportunity knocks once again in 2000 as Metallica announces a summer tour called Sanitarium. Boom! I buy my ticket for the Dallas show at Texas stadium in Dallas Tx. I think it was Kid Rock, Korn, System of a Down, etc... This time I buy a round trip ticket from Harlingen Tx to Dallas and back to Harlingen airport the next day. I was set! Then, out of nowhere, I get selected as a 12th member juror in a civil case that lasted ALL summer long. Yes, everyday I had to report to jury duty for $7 a day. It was a BIG case with lots of history in our home town. Anyway, the dilemma was that the concert was on Sunday and I had to be back early Monday for jury. Well, luck was in my favor this time cause the presiding judge gave us a whole week to enjoy our summer and it just so happened it was that Monday following the Sunday night concert. I was ready! So here comes the weekend and its Saturday already. My flight left Sunday morning. I was out that night and got home like around 3 in the morning. I couldn't sleep of excitement that finally I was going to see my BAND. I wake up to like 2 different alarms. I wasn't about to miss my flight due to oversleeping. Luggage check, concert ticket check, airline ticket check. I get on my mustang and head out to the highway. As I am driving, I start thinking about the flight. Yes, to this point I hadn't been on a plane since I was like 14 years old. I was 29. So, the 1st couple of miles into my journey to the airport, FEAR of flying kicks in out of nowhere and it lingers in my head. So I do the unthinkable and exit the highway and head home with a SADNESS but a relief that I was no longer going to fly. It was about $500 value of flight and concert ticket. But wait! I find out that James didn't play that night due to an illness, and that Metallica was going to make up that show when James got better. So now, I have a flight ticket and concert ticket that i need to change for the rescheduled concert date. I choose the 2nd night show at the Dallas Mavericks Arena. I go to the airport and inquire about changing my unused ticket. I'll had to do was pay extra fees for changing it. While I am at the airport I am seeing all these planes land and take off and again FEAR kicks in and I just give up on the whole thing. I call it the "The Thing Shouldn't be" or The thing that didn't happen. Then months later, Jason Newsted quits Metallica. I was like NO!!!!!!!! years later I finally did see Metallica in the next Sanitarium Tour of 03 in Houston and Dallas Tx. Now it was Robert Trujillo as bassist. In 04, I bought tickets to see them in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Austin, and the best one in Lubbock Tx. Why Lubbock you ask? I entered the meet and greet to all 5 cities and won it for the Lubbock show. I got to meet all members, talked to them for a bit wanted to express admiration for when I was a young kid but i just couldn't. Too nervous as they approached me. Its unbelievable to see them right in front of you. Now, I try to see them when they come down to Texas. Haven't missed a Tour since then. Thank you for reading my COMMENT OR SHOULD I SAY MY METALLICA STORY.
ThirtyINchTrout How much time did it take you to write that?😂 Nice story btw
That's a whole lot of missed opportunities. Nice story!
I missed out on seeing them in my hometown of Bergen, Norway which was a TOTAL bummer because I was in the Army at the time (we have 1 year of compulsory military service in Norway) . Loved being in the Army that year, but I missed out on Metallica & Iron Maiden that year (I had seen Maiden 2 times before that though).. I've never seen Metallica live, but I've seen Iron Maiden a couple of times, they're great..
They are an awesome band studio and most definitely live!!!! You need to check them out if close to your area.
For your novel
Even though it was a long thread and my a.d.d. almost starting to kick in, I read your awesome story and thinking wow this could be a premise for like a Metallica based film similar to Detroit Rock City with KISS. I'm also thinking side note wise just how lucky to have been a kid during that time. Anyways, Rock On bro!
The 80's I can't believe were almost 40 years ago. Wow
9:10 burp+fart and then james’ laugh LMFAO
It makes me laugh so hard lol
"Do you have any tea?"
METAL!!!!
RIP Cliff Burton(Clifford Lee Burton)
The masterpiece bassguitar player who was an insane character in Metallica
Well will never forget you :( :/ 😞
Rest In Peace legend
it's funny that people thought they were selling out when they made master. now it's considered the truest form of the band.
Pfft. Some people even say they sold out with “Fade to Black,” from the previous album Ride the Lightning. I love Metallica’s music, but all this “they sold out” comments are getting old.
Nick Manory By different people. Truthfully, they sold out when they put Escape on Ride because they did it thinking it would get them on the radio. This is why James is so reluctant to play it live. Anyway, I love the song, but those were James' words, more or less.
Metal elitists are all a bunch of suckers. They'd always say the band sold out just because they made a melodic tune instead of a fucking thrash one. Metallica was always known to be the most melodic one out of the big 4, the joint of chaos and harmony, that is Metallica, Cliff himself said that back then (he said something like that, I don't remember the exact same words). People just don't want to understand.
people saying they where sellouts had nothing to do with the music. It was the fact that they came out the gate saying kill all the record labels, and fuck MTV and that there this kind of band and not that kind of band... and they slowly did everything they said they wouldn't.
+Marc Andrew Narimatsu (Marcu D.) Some people say they sold out with Kill Em All by signing to a major label. Being called "sellouts" is something Metallica has never been a stranger to. Honestly, I couldn't give a shit. I like all of their music. They don't need more money. They have more money than they could spend in 20 lifetimes. They write and record Nye music because it's what they love to do. They've always key their hearts guide their musical direction. Any time someone reaches a new level of success, there's gonna be a group of idiots trying to knock them back down. I just listen to the music.
I am literally enchanted by Cliff. He’s so cool, , funny… thinking about him, makes come to my mind only good things. His eyes and smile are beatiful and always move me. Cliff makes me feel ambivalent feelings. Sadness for his tragic loss, serenity and joy because this guy certainly bring positive things to his bandmates and to those around him. It’s not a casuality if after so many years so many people miss him even if they didn't have the privilege of knowing him. I’m one of these. Love you forever Cliff. A big hug to my beautiful red haired angel.
It probably didn't mean much to James, Lars and Kirk at the time but they must treasure this footage of Cliff not so long before we lost him. I doubt the next generation of metal heads appreciate just how important Cliff was to Metallica. He was HUGE. Everything he did was never surpassed - great to see him here, thanks for sharing
i’m a gen z metalhead and i KNOW how important cliff was to metallica.
he made the band better. ik i wasn’t alive when he was but ive heard all of the metallica songs with cliff and ive seen so many videos with him
and he is SO talented and i love him so much. he left too soon
Anyone else catch that at 9:27 Lars is talking about Dave Mustaine?
Holy shit
40:37 {Cliff} look at that attitude, the eye roll oh my god😂
Indeed😁
IDK if you are gay, but your comment reads as gay (IMO anyway). I find this ironic b/c Cliff is rolling his eyes at the mention of "gay" looking glam bands.
Cheetah Thunders. Maybe they are not male?? You do know that metal bands have female fans too. And there was nothing even remotely sexual/"gay" about OG's comment.
@@mdnblues There is that possibility! However, a lot more than 50% of metal comments are by males. Is it bad for me to say that IF a male says "the eye roll OMG look at the attitude" that's kinda gay? Do you feel "gay" is insulting? ;) Or do you feel that me saying such comments by males is kinda gay is inaccurate? Yes it was sexual. It sounded like the OP was swooning.
Cheetah Thunders. Yes “gay” is insulting
18:31 dont mind me, it's just cliff laughing
When Lars starts talking about going to Europe in September I just fucking tear up man, so heavy. Rest In Peace Cliff ⛅🎸
When they asked “what do your parents think of all this?” James is like “Fuck you”
“Hello, is this the Krusty Krab?”
“No, 5:26 “
😂😂😂😂
“No... this is PATRICK!!!”
Jajaja
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHHA
Kirk who?
I really LOVE to see James both a little bit shy but confident in lyrics and their music
“We do what we want to do and if that’s selling out then whatever” -Cliff Burton
Suck it metal elitists
I bet they didn't expect ride the lighting and master to be still considered the best metal albums of all time.
Funny
It is absolutely painful that this man is not alive today! Such a great talent and musical force he was!
i feel like cliff’s look has inspired a lot of artists even today
Inspired me to be who I am, I was inspired by the look, the way he plays the bass, the way he dresses, and mainly his attitude...
I've been watching a lot of Metallica videos from Cliff's era after finishing reading his biography. Even though I've always been a fan of the band, it has given me a different perspective. It's quite emotional; as with many of us, Metallica is not just a band but a part of our lives.
I’m half way through that book myself. Makes me look at this interview differently. I wish there was more footage of Cliff talking and just hanging out.
4:11 makes me sad at 43, still miss and love Cliff:)
I'll never forget cliff when I met him at Hollywood Palladium in 1985 he was not even drinking he was already sobering up he was drinking Evian water when I was talking to him I will never forget that concert metallica armored saint Adam bomb and God bless me that night
I love how you can really hear a mixture of accent in Lars's voice of Dane and West coast....
He said hella in 1985 or 1986. He is from the bay area for sure! I know Denmark, L.A. then bay area but that is where that slang started I can promise you.
0:26 yep, those nerds created three of the absolute best albums of ALL time in Metal! lol
