In the new footage below from Capitol Chaos TV, Bay Area band TRAUMA perform in honor of their former bassist, Cliff Burton (ex-METALLICA) at a celebration of what would have been his 51st birthday, on February 10th at Brick & Mortar Music Hall in San Francisco, CA:
OZZY LIVES - featuring Larry Howe of VICIOUS RUMORS on drums and Terry Lauderdale, formerly of HEATHEN, on guitar - performed the OZZY OSBOURNE classic, 'Mr. Crowley' at the celebration. Check out footage below, courtesy of Capital Chaos TV:
Cliff Burton was killed in an accident on September 27th, 1986 at the age of 24 when the band's tour bus over-turned in rural southern Sweden. He was known for his "lead bass" approach, in which he allowed the bass to play a melodic and soloist role, in addition to holding down the harmonic and rhythmic foundation of Metallica.
