80's Music Videos

Some great selections in this thread--it has brought back a lot of memories! In 1985, I was a Freshman in high school and while my tastes in music have always been very broad--I occasionally tended toward the "dark side"...

This performance features Cliff Burton (1962-1986), their original bass player and co-founder. RIP my brother.

YES!!! This is one of the greatest metal songs ever! The charge of The Light Brigade! The Brits are pretty ballsy when it comes to combat.

In this case, you might be confusing ballsy with suicidal - the charge of The Light Brigade is usually remembered as one of the greatest cock-ups in British military history.

I used to love Iron Maiden when I was at school!

Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - Metallica Live 1986 w/Cliff Burton

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nkj4_...x=0&playnext=1

It's an amateur video but if you want the "real" Metallica it doesn't get any better than this. Enjoy!

This is "Damage Inc." again from 1986 w/Cliff. "Fuck it all and fucking no regrets...". Enjoy!

By 1989 I was in college and was turned on to this band by a friend. I think of these guys more in terms of the "90's" but "Beneath the Remains" snuck in at the close of the decade. "Inner Self" is probably the best known track from the CD.

Warning: If you don't like Metallica or similar bands, you may want to pass this one by... Otherwise enjoy!
