I'm sure many of you have seen this already, but this is wicked. This is so much faster than the studio version.

(SIGH) I miss that Metallica.

You're not the only one. I do have high hopes for this new album.

I LOVE this concert! One of my favourites - I have it as a bootleg on DVD and audio. It's the 1985 German Metal Hammer Festival, right? Love it!

Oh, and check out the first ever performance of "Disposable Heroes" from the same concert

If only Cliff was still alive. Where would Metallica be?

that '85-86 era is my favorite as far as live Metallica goes. I spent an hour and a half watching these on youtube. some killer stuff. The '89 videos were awesome as well.

Probably in a similar position, I'd imagine.

Anyway, great clip. I love "Creeping Death".

I agree. People seem to forget that Cliff was the most open-minded member of Metallica, musically.

Cliff-Jason or Robert?? All good player, think cliff was the best of the three??-TJ

If Cliff was still alive, he would have quit the band by '90. Kirk is the only human alive that could put up with James and Lars any longer than that.

Great clip!

Cliff was a great bass player, and song writer. After he died everything was solely based on James and Lars, then they changed of course by going with ol' Bob Rock who ruined Motley Crue, to me. Their not the same without Cliff and will never be.

Yeah I agree that if Cliff were still alive he probably would have quit the band by now.

i think that all three were and/or are very good bass players certainly better than me but i am happy with my playing at the moment anyhow.

cliff inspired me to pick up the bass guitar in the first place
