This was after all the first time the band played live with Cliff Burton, who had been headhunted from Trauma after Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield had been blown away by his bass playing at the Whiskey A Go-Go. This was a water-shed moment for the band - still labelled as Power Metal - who incorporated Burtons technically unprecedented playing style and took thrash metal to new, more exciting places. Looking back on the time - the video shows a gig a few weeks later - its clear to see not only why Burton was brought in, but also why the band were signed shortly afterwards.
