Cliff ‘Em All
Cliff ‘Em All is a compilation of video footage by the American heavy metal band Metallica. It was released in 1987 as a tribute to Metallica’s bassist Cliff Burton, who was killed in a tour bus accident on September 27, 1986, at the age of 24, near Ljungby, Sweden during the European leg of their Damage, Inc. Tour. Its title is derived from Metallica’s debut album, Kill ‘Em All. The homevideo contains also a performance with former guitarist Dave Mustaine on March 19, 1983, shortly before his release for heavy drugs and alcohol abuse. The video is a retrospective on the 3 and a half years that Cliff Burton was in Metallica, presented as a collection of bootleg footage shot by fans, some professional filming and TV shots that were never used and some of his best bass solos, personal photos and live concerts. Photos and narrations by the band (Ulrich, Hetfield and Hammett drinking beer) are placed between songs which focus on Burton before fading into a title card of a performance. The video ends with the melodic interlude of “Orion” as pictures of Burton are shown. With this video, the band tries to show the unique personality and style he had.

This contrasts sharply with the ‘Metallica business’ represented in the feature film Some Kind of Monster. Footage on this release includes: Detroit, April 4, 1986 – “supporting Ozzy” Shot from the left of …
