Metallica's "Cliff 'Em All" Commentary and Review

The Mighty Goldstein makes his return! We do a commentary about, and then review Cliff ‘Em All, the Metallica home video released as a tribute to their legendary bassist Cliff Burton.

I’m doing something different this time by starting with the commentary and ending with a review. I felt our review was kind of in the commentary anyway.

There would have been too many notes based on our commentary so here are notes from our review:

-The woman hopping down the stairs during For Whom the Bell Tolls

-Hammett dropping his pick

-Steve’s feeling every time he’s watched Cliff ‘Em All

-The progression of Metallica

-Watching Cliff ‘Em All as a kid

-Discovering Metallica backwards

-The more things change . . .

-Steve’s favorite part

-Dave Mustaine

-Violence at the early shows

-Tribalism at early metal shows versus the metal shows of today

-Mike’s favorite part

-Day on the Green 1985

-Mike’s first exposure to Cliff ‘Em All in the late 80s

-Jason Newsted

-The Creeping Death single

-Mike’s wish for Cliff ‘Em All

-Cliff’s high school years

-Bordin and Martin during the 30th Anniversary show

-Martin’s “Tribute to Cliff Burton” shirt

-Among the LIving’s liner notes

-1982-87

-Scott Ian

-Steve’s favorite song

-Mike’s favorite song again

-The weather during Day on the Green

CORRECTIONS

*I believe The Scorpions headlined Day on the Green in 1985

*Ride the Lightning was originally released on Megaforce then reissued on Elektra two months later

*Metallica started their own label in 2012

*Jim Martin and Mike Bordin were not in Trauma

-Plugs!

Steve’s album is called “Songs in the Key of Fuck You (The Angry Commuter’s Companion). If you hate your job and/or commute, you will love this album - https://tofumofo-nyc.bandcamp.com
