1.6 million in Moscow 91. There was more people than that but they had stop counting at 1.6...Rob was the best choice for the band besides his backing vocals were he lacks, Lars isn't the best drummer but makes up for it in creative ideas and song structure. Kirk lead guitar and personality is a perfect match for Metallica and he can riff with James 100% which isn't an easy task, and James is the Riff GOD and one of the best metal frontman ever!
I dont think it'll be any contest that Cliff was the best bassist the band ever had, but Jason was probably the most personable and the one most people think of as being in the band when they truly broke into the big time.
All of the bassists have amazing qualities. And I know where their bass power comes from Cliffs was in his hair RIP Jasons is in his neck Robs is in his knees
Cliff Burton period! Blessed to see him play with Metallica and open for Ozzy in 86 on the master of puppets tour. Absolutely unbelievably incredibly amazing!
@@ChasingAnthems It was in Columbia Maryland in 1986. It was a rainy summer night in August and Ozzy blew the power out of the venue which was outside twice. Thunderstorms for an awesome Ozzy concert doesn't get any better than that! And Metallica kicked major ass. I still have the ticket I still have the shirts no kidding!
I might be of the rare people that actually adore Lars. Also they never play to a recorded track it’s all 100% live bar some effects. Cliff is my favourite bassist and will always be.
@@IASP17 well I’ve been a fan of Metallica and of metal in general since I was 8 and And Justice For All came out and my mum brought it home. I still love Lars despite his mistakes.
@@IASP17 I’ve followed Metallica since Ride the Lightning, I think that’s a very personal comment about Lars..he’s a good drummer. To me personally Mike Portnoy is one of the greatest drummers ever but it’s all personal choice…who’s to say Lars isn’t a good drummer?
Metallica did a Country song,"Mama Said".You need to react to that,great song.Another good one is James on CMT covering Waylon Jennings "Dont You Think This Outlaw Bit Just Got Out of Hand"
Bassist wise I think Rob has the most technical ability of all Metallica bassists. Cliff was just a unique talent and drove the band towards better composition and greater understanding of theory in the early days. Cliff obviously was supremely, off the charts, gifted but Rob has a wider array of techniques committed to record. Each member of the band is talented to the point they need to be and what they do and how they do it works perfectly for one of the most successful bands ever, screw the haters!
Rob is the best fit for Metallica today. He's in the band because no one else could hold it down like him. Rob brings it all to the table, he is an incredible musician, can sing and handle the stresses of fame and the road! Although Jason was incredible, Cliff will always be our favorite on nostalgia alone!
This year is their 40th anniversary of existence. Their biggest crowd ever was Moscow in 1991. It was a free show and there's no official count of the crowd but estimates range from 1 to 1.6 million people. Their best bassist was the first one, Cliff Burton who died in "86 while on tour. Both Jason and Robert are truly great bassists as well though.
DEFINITELY CLIFF BURTON IS THE BEST AS A MUSICIAN AND AS A MEMBER OF THE COMPOSITION STRUCTURE, JASON NEWSTED WAS THE BEST ON STAGE BECAUSE OF HIS PERFORMANCE AND VOCALS, ROB TRUJILLO IS GREAT BASS PLAYER AND HE BROUGHT HIS TALENT IN THE LAST TWO METALLICA'S ALBUMS. HE'S THE BEST BASS PLAYER METALLICA COULD EVER FOUND 🤘🏼🎶
Moscow 1991. Monsters Of Rock. 1.6M fans present. Throughout the show the Russian military was beating up the crowd with batons and flying attack helicopters over the show. Must see. Also I recommend watching guitarist Dimebag Darryl and Pantera play Domination live at the 1991 Monsters of Rock. It's all time epic and in black & white.
Dude you should react to Ride the Lightning live! Or the Outlaw Torn, I believe live in Germany, not the one with the orchestra, that just takes the metal aspect right out the window. If you continue Metallica reactions I'll for sure sub!! I'll tell all my Metallica buddies at their fan club to come too, they also love Metallica reactions! Tysvm!! Oh don't forget about the Day that Never Comes live in Nimes France 2009!! Also they don't need to stay relevant, they are so loved for all their music it's unbelievable!
If your checking out metallica you've got to take a look at their big brother Megadeth and you might as well listen to the greatest metal song in the history of mankind "Holy Wars...The Punishment Due" go ahead and live a little
@@tallycahamuhlhetru26 yes they are, metallica started their career for the most part using Dave Mustaine's music after he asked them not to use his material soon after his firing from the band instead they based their early sound on his riffs and structure, metallica may have become more commercially bigger but they are highly overrated because people are sheep, Megadeth haa produced a ton more music and at a much higher quality than metallica could ever hope to achieve but you metallica zombies keep on denying the obvious
No click track. They have guys that play the back tracks on cue. Lars is not an amazing drummer but he co wrote the majority of the songs and is a pioneer in the thrash metal scene. Nobody played like he did originally. He had his prime but never really got better
Cliff. Robert is a beast. Love his tone. Lars is great, not the best technically but it wouldn't be Metallica without him. I could never see Danny Carey in Metallica.
Not to detract from their ability to make a studio album, but metallica are primarily a live band. If I could steal your early comment and run with it, they feed off the crowd energy indeed...and return it right back. Proper symbiosis
My favorite Metallica Bassist? Um, Cliff is the obvious choice, we didn’t get to see his full potential….but I love all three of the four. Of four? Yes Mcgovney was there in the beginning, but not in any of the next 3 bassists stratosphere
Cliff Burton contributed the most intellectually. He influenced metallica to have the harmonized leads and creativity. Robert Trujillo is very competent. I think they would make some better songs if they let Robert Trujillo contribute to there song structures more.
Lars is just fine. The complaining about his skills came about not because of his skills but because he was the out front, vocal, face of Metallica when they sued Napster. Pissed off people who were mad because they thought they wouldn't be able to steal music anymore then started nonsense about his skills and everyone started repeating it. True over the years he may have slowed down a bit but so the heck would you at 50-60+ years old. The fact is Metallica is not who they are without Lars on drums not to mention arranging the songs.
What do I think about Lars? He's way over hated. Doesn't deserve it. Brings a lot composition-wise and is a really fast drummer. Wait till you get to 4 doesn't, creeping death, whiplash and songs like that. You should check out songs fron their Seattle '89 video. High quality recording/production with tons of cool footage.
i prefer james doesnt talk to the audience during the song & make people sing the words for him. He didnt do that cra0p in the old days, back when they were awesome

This show had 2.5 mil. Cause every one Mexican always comes with 1000 family members. Gotta love my people.

Toshino airfield in '91 I believe if you need to look it up.
every word you said is 100% true!
That was free entrance
You were at the 1991 dont be
Greatest band in history!
I dont think it'll be any contest that Cliff was the best bassist the band ever had, but Jason was probably the most personable and the one most people think of as being in the band when they truly broke into the big time.
Cliff, the reason they excelled, Jason was fan favorite, Rob is the perfect blend of both
40 years 🤘🏻
All of the bassists have amazing qualities. And I know where their bass power comes from
Cliffs was in his hair RIP
Jasons is in his neck
Robs is in his knees
Cliff Burton period! Blessed to see him play with Metallica and open for Ozzy in 86 on the master of puppets tour. Absolutely unbelievably incredibly amazing!
Must of been a wild show!
I got to see that show as well in New Haven. That was my first Metallica experience. Been a fan ever since.

Saw that tour in Syracuse, NY. Back when they were an opening band, ha
Cliff… 👍🏻
Robert is the best bassist, Cliff was the best musician, and Jason was the best performer.
Cliff was taken to early RIP but the main 2 that took the spot i think they both filled the role pretty damn well
When I saw them at the Rose Bowl, they said it was 70k people there. It was sold out. Now you see why I love this band so much lol
Where was the invite?????
@@ChasingAnthems that’s a good question... my bad.
METALLICA WAS CREATED IN 1981, SO THEY'RE KICKING ASSES AND SELLING OUT EVERY STADIUM AND COLISEUM WHERE THEY PERFORMANCE FOR 41 YEARS!!! 🤘🏼🎶
10:33 🤣🤣 Dude liked it 🤘🏼🔥
The Kings 🤘
There was 150000 people at that concert
moscow 1991 over 1.5 milion people react to creeping death from this concert
Do you have a link?

a lot of casual fans actually like Lars. old school and hardcore metal fans dont like him. a lot of them if not everybody

Love me some Lars…and he was right about Napster. I hope they own their master recordings. Prince was right too.
Moscow was huge. Can't beat seattle 89
Just had their 40year anniversary
Metallica did a Country song,"Mama Said".You need to react to that,great song.Another good one is James on CMT covering Waylon Jennings "Dont You Think This Outlaw Bit Just Got Out of Hand"

Rob had decades to hone his craft... Cliff is my vote for best bassist
Your buddy James Mills was in a band called Fydolla Ho with Robert. Pretty crazy lol
Jason newsted. Live he was surreal
Rob is the best fit for Metallica today. He's in the band because no one else could hold it down like him. Rob brings it all to the table, he is an incredible musician, can sing and handle the stresses of fame and the road!

Dude you wanna see what they can do? React to The Day that Never Comes live Nimes France 2009! You'll love it, they're A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !!!

Cliff all day.
Would have loved to see Steve Degiorgio (Death/Testament) play for them.
1001 Moscow live Creeping Death and Enter Sandman. 1.6 million people.
40 years
Dang! Time flys
50 years... literally 50 years is coming up on their first demo.
50000+ at this show
41 now
They originally formed in 1981 so over 40 years
Mama said is a country style song by Metallica if you want a song that bridges the gap
DEFINITELY CLIFF BURTON IS THE BEST AS A MUSICIAN AND AS A MEMBER OF THE COMPOSITION STRUCTURE, JASON NEWSTED WAS THE BEST ON STAGE BECAUSE OF HIS PERFORMANCE AND VOCALS, ROB TRUJILLO IS GREAT BASS PLAYER AND HE BROUGHT HIS TALENT IN THE LAST TWO METALLICA'S ALBUMS.

Let’s keep track of how many people say “Moscow 1991”. Lol.
Cliff was a truly genius bassist but jason had the best stage energy. Dude was the biggest metalhead
robert trujillo is my favorite

The greatest metall band never to be out done.
Metallica - Mama Said . Thats a country style song btw
Jason all day for his performance aspect. Robert for his musical ability.
Would love anyone's opinion on it
If your checking out metallica you've got to take a look at their big brother Megadeth and you might as well listen to the greatest metal song in the history of mankind "Holy Wars...The Punishment Due" go ahead and live a little
Definitely on my list to review. Sub so you don’t miss it. Thanks!
Megadeth is Metallica's big brother?!? 😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Megadeth has like a handful of great songs. Mustaine’s vocals are among the worst in music
@@philipflores2515 your entitled to your dumbass stupid entitled opinion have a nice life loser
1.6 million in Moscow ‘91…I believe…unless there’s a bigger one I don’t know about
No click track. They have guys that play the back tracks on cue. Lars is not an amazing drummer but he co wrote the majority of the songs and is a pioneer in the thrash metal scene. Nobody played like he did originally. He had his prime but never really got better
No click tracks but James' playing is in Lars' feedback. James sets the pace, not Lars...
Definitely creeping death live Moscow 1991 please
...there's only one Cliff Burton!!! :)
Cliff. Robert is a beast. Love his tone. Lars is great, not the best technically but it wouldn't be Metallica without him. I could never see Danny Carey in Metallica.
Robert Trujillo best bassist hands down!
CIIFF BURTON!!!
One of the smallest shows they done is probably anartica
What!?!? Gotta check that one out. Send me a link.
Rob, the baby of Metallica (@58😂) has the strongest knees & quads in heavy metal.
Mexico got it right. Keep the pyro away from James !🔥🔥🔥🤦🏾♀️
🤣😂
Cliff Burton enough said
Couldn’t you have picked a better song
Cliff Jason and Robert all great fits but for me it’ll always be Cliff Burton
If I can't pick kliff, it's definitely Jason man.
Jason easily.
Cliff Burton. But he’s a super freak. All were good.

hardwired to self destruct and death magnetic has some kick ass thrash songs on it, you missing out dude
90 000

i prefer james doesnt talk to the audience during the song & make people sing the words for him. He didnt do that cra0p in the old days, back when they were awesome
Not true at all
40 years my guy, not 30 😎
😂🤣 I did the math after the video. Time is flying by to quick.
Cliff was best talent ,but all 3 are great top class bass players
Jason
For me the great Cliff Burton is the greatest bassist
Lars gets alot of hate but I'm not one of them. People need remember without lars metallica would never have been formed.
Metallica just isnt the same since Jason left
CLIFF
Metallica sold out
...every single night
Lars is not one of the best drummers in metal there are far better
He's creativity and weirdness helps him tbh.... he is good use to be great/amazing
40 years
CLIFF
40 years
