- Metallica's first album, "Kill 'Em All", was originally titled "Metal Up Your Ass", but the label didn't like the title and forced the band to change it. After the band learned of the change, Cliff said "Just kill 'em all, man,". The rest of the band liked the phrase and decided to use it as the new title for the album, which was released in 1983.
- Former bassist for the heavy metal band Metallica. He worked on their first three albums ("Kill 'Em All", "Ride The Lightning" and "Master of Puppets").
- One of the riffs he recorded before he died appeared on the song "To Live Is To Die" on Metallica's 1988 album "...And Justice For All".
- Played bass only with his fingers, never used a pick
- Also played bass in the power/speed metal band Trauma. This was the band that James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich saw perform at the Whisky a Go Go in 1982. James and Lars were looking for a potential bass player for Metallica and wanted Cliff to join. Cliff would only join Metallica if they had moved up north, which they eventually did, and the rest is history.
- Why should we change on stage? We're not trying to be something big and fancy, it's just us, doing what we do, we'd like to keep it that way.
