Thanks Mark . "Cliff 'em All." Dave Mustaine dubbed him the "major rajor and the four string mother Well put, as only Dave could put it. After gigging around the bay area with their wondrous new bassist they went to New York to record their legendary debut, "Kill 'em All", with Megaforce Records. The "Kill 'em All for One" tour brought them home, Metallica now begins to prepare to record their next album. In the process, they sign with Electra records. Many said they had sold out when they heard a ballad on the album. These are Cliff's thoughts on this > situation: "We do what we wanna do--if they consider that selling > out...whatever." Metallica's natural progression continued when Ozzy Ozbourne invited them to open for him on his "Ultimate Sin" tour. This would prove to be Metallica's real break to a wider range of audiences. Sadly,Metallica and Cliff were not to be. After touring with Ozzy, the band went on a tour of Europe, playing various dates. Their last show with Cliff was on September 26, 1986, in Stolkholm, Sweden. Had to look in my archives. Cliff Burton Cool Question Mark Thanks again.
