That smug smile :D He knows this riff is a killer!

[gringochucha]

Hetfield is Metallica's drummer. Ulrich is a percussionist.

[youpeopl_music]

It's gotta feel great to have written that riff.

[asymptoticspatula]

I have always thought that was such a weird riff. I love it of course.

[KingEli]

Probably the best rhythm guitarist in history of Metal.

[mattyglen]

The GOAT of rhythm guitar. Hard enough to play, but he sings over it as well

[riverpb]

i'm glad the cameraman kept the seizure-inducing camera work from the 80's intact

[nukee_s]

And he can play and sing this at the same time, that's crazy!

[Algorithm]

Fasted down picker in the world right there!

[jasonjuneau]

I love how he's rockn out to his own song even after all these years. He knows he's written some damn good riffs.

[Ensid]

00:04 dat smile "i wrote that"

[joelgoodwin]

James’ rhythm guitar playing is insane! It doesn’t matter if he’s the best or worst - he’s the greatest!

[lucanov]

This James guy's good, he should start his own band.

[Hetfan]

Dude wrote that song over 30 years ago, and he still gets that grin playing it ...that's what I love about these cats🤘

[erich]

The greatest rhythm guitarist of ALL time & it ain't even close. AND he sang over complex riffage!!

[allemander]

Even just this tiny, short snippet of a video feels like a shot of adrenaline! The music is THAT powerful! 🔥🤘🏼🎸

[edwright]

Beautiful picking technique and tone. That's what made their sound! All those heavy downstrokes, scooped mids, and great songwriting!

[ilauthr]

Not to mention he sings while playing that riff

[abhishekyogan]

Bro your editing is top notch, the times I've listened to this on loop is ridiculous, pretty much the whole day, everyday, keep making more edits like this.

[koedoe]

okay, but why does James look like a Metal version of Tommy Emanuel here?
