Such day as today 10 of February Cliff Lee Burton is born in San Francisco , remembered bearish of Metallica, that passed away tragically in Sweden, while the band was of tour.
In spite of having been little more than three years with the band Cliff Burton it marked deep the life of Metallica, much more even, that its successor Jason Newsted. Their charisma, their delivery in the scene, their image moved away when rockstar makes a not very often seen unique being and in the world of music. Son of parents hippies, Burton was born in San Francisco the 10 of fecrero of year 62. This fact motivated its love by its classic jeans “elephant leg”, snaped like a bwll that accompanied it in their 24 years by life. In its youth its enthusiasm began by music and it was dedicated to take classes from low. Musical theory is the only member of Metallica with deep slight knowledge. It is more, with his arrival to the band at the beginning of the '83 little by little went impregnating of his knowledge to James. The greatest harmonies of the disc “Masters Of Puppets” must to the creative genius of Cliff. He was the unique one in the band that could write a musical composition in a piece of paper, only in its mind, without it to have touched previously, quality that only occurs to the geniuses of music. Cliff arrived at the band as soon as Hetfield and the Ulrichs saw with their ex- band - live Trauma it in San Francisco. It was that mythical moment at which James listened to rare a single one of guitar, that pelirrojo really was a bearish eccentric wagging its head wildly while struck the four cords. Cliff was the man… Lars and James did not doubt it: it was necessary to have to that bear in the rows of Metallica. They imploraron to him time and time again to Cliff who was united to them, but this one refused in each one of the opportunities. Nevertheless, thanks to the insistence of Lars and James, Cliff finally accepted. That yes, with the condition of which the band changed to the Bay Area of San Francisco since he hated the “ostentation” of Los Angeles. The arrival of Cliff to the band was of great meaning and aid, as much for the composition of the subjects as for the use of new musical concepts of harmony and melodía that it implanted to them. Until before the arrival of Cliff, the band only touched by “instinct”. Cliff was in charge to teach new musical concepts, those to him that were an important base for their evolution and musical growth. Also one was in charge to teach “musical theory to him” to James, which demonstrates that great part of the “musical genius” that today has Metallica and James Hetfield is work of Cliff Burton. 27 of September in the morning a highway of Sweden took the life of one of the most talented bears and inovadores than the rock it has known. That day began the legend, legend that increases to day to day when listening works summits like “(Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth”, “Orion”, “The Call Of Ktulu”, “Inc. Damage”, “Masters Of Puppets” or “To Live Is To Die”. Cliff and his music will be remembered by always.
