      He isn't shit.
      But if you "compare" him to some other lead guitarists, with all due respect he falls a little short.
      His style seems very limited (I mean why do you think ppl troll him with "pentatonic" jokes), it works well for metallica no doubt.
      And yes I do play guitar, I am not even close to his level of skill but I think he can do better, his earlier stuff was very good, lately....idk not so much

    Cliff Burton may be a legend, but Metallica´s absolute peak as a live band is due to Jason Newsted. He made Lars´s playing sound tighter, James´s voice sound fiercer and made them look altogheter as a serious heavy metal band. Not even the most technical bassist could fill his shoes.

      ​@@royalmarine1011 I agree with you. It´s been acknowledged by them that Cliff brought the most varied influences to the band, as well as a more profound musical theory background. I think his contributions were fundamental to their musical growth.... but as a LIVE band, Jason had amazing backing vocals and a more solid, profound bass sound the band lacked, and made them sound more powerfull than ever (before or since).

      I image a demon being very nasally, that voice however has some FAT bass, much like Jason's actual bass.

    Lucky are those who were at this show. Metallica were locked in and, to my ears, this was them at their heaviest and most brutal. If they'd just treated Jason better. He didn't deserve the bullshit they put him through.

    Metallica in their absolute prime, pure insanity. I’ve listened to this live record over and over and never get tired of it. 🤘
