Enter Sandman

Metallica

Metallica

This may seen out of place in the timeline but I start with it because in the Introduction to The Story of Rock and Roll I use it to explain just how powerful great music can be and how it can transport you from terrible lows to incredible highs.  It’s all about the big chords coming through all that fucking morbidity. When I saw this movie for the first time I got goose bumps , I still get them everytime The Stones fire up ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’ which is exactly why this clip is so important.  Hilton Bennet who was a great mate and has a bit part in TSORR got me into this movie and I am forever grateful for that

Metallica fought against putting out video’s despite serious pressure from their record company and management. When they did eventually capitulate they put out fairly dark shit and none of it gives you what you really should be watching to appreciate them. They are best watched Live so here is a live clip of them doing Enter Sandman, look at that crowd ! Fucking amazing \m/
