Former METALLICA Bassist JASON NEWSTED Doesn't Believe In Re-Recording Classic Albums



zoom
Greg Prato of Songfacts recently conducted an interview with former METALLICA, VOIVOD and FLOTSAM AND JETSAM bassist and current NEWSTED frontman Jason Newsted. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.

Songfacts: One of my favorite songs from when you were a member of METALLICA was "Blackened", which is a song that you co-wrote. What do you remember about your contribution to that song, as far as writing it?

Jason: That was a very special time in my life. This was when James [Hetfield] and I were first becoming friends. He was someone I looked up to greatly before I joined the band — we all did. Anybody in any other bands, even the guys in the bands around us, even EXODUS and VIO-LENCE, we all looked up to James. He was just a special gifted person, still is. So we were getting to be friends and we'd stay over at each other's house or apartments, and we'd take care of each other's animals when we went on vacations and these kind of things, got to be pals. We were in my one-bedroom apartment. I had my little four-track Tascam set up in the corner of the bedroom, and we were jamming on our guitars, just playing through some riffs. And I played that [vocalizes the riff - play the clip to hear it] That "Blackened" riff, and he goes, "Dude, what is that?" Because it was really pretty crazy. The original thing is a very fast alternating thing. Man, it's pretty tricky, actually. I mean, the one that ended up on the record is pretty tricky, too, but the original one is really tricky. He picked up on that and we recorded that bit. And he goes, "Let's build it to this, and build it to this." It was a moment. I was actually composing a song with James from METALLICA and he was approving my riffs and saying, "This is going to be a METALLICA song." That was a big, big moment for me. We had already been on tour together, and so I had a giant "Damage Inc." tour poster on my bedroom wall right above my little station where I had my speakers and my little four-track and the two or three guitars in my collection. And there we were, I could paint that picture for you very plainly. It was a very, very big moment for me, because I was getting approved from The Man to have my first chance on having one of my compositions on a METALLICA record. So that was a very special time.

Songfacts: This year is the 25th anniversary of the release of the "…Justice For All" album. I'm sure a lot of fans were hoping, that METALLICA was going to put out the album again as a reissue and bring up the bass. Would you like to see that happen as a possible reissue?

Jason: It's their band and if they decide to do that, that's all good with me. You know, over time, there's been so much hubbub over this thing and people make so much out of it, but whatever it is that they make out of the blend of the whole thing, to me the album is perfect. "Kill 'Em All" isn't perfect, but it's perfect. And "Van Halen I" isn't perfect, but it's perfect. "...And Justice For All" isn't perfect, but it's perfect. Because it captured that time for those people. And going back and changing things and doing "the Sharon Osbourne thing" [replacing previous musicians' recordings with newer ones, as evidenced a few years ago with reissues of Ozzy's "Blizzard Of Ozz" and "Diary Of A Madman"], going back and re-recording albums that were already classics, I'm just not sure about all that stuff. So if they decide to do a remaster and they bring up the bass frequencies or the low-end frequencies and all that, right on, man. Send me a copy and I'll blast it just like anybody else, just like a fan of METALLICA. But for what it is, it does just fine. It still sells a lot of copies every day and I'm pretty happy with the outcome of the whole thing, actually. Considering what I knew about playing bass guitar at that time, I'm not surprised it's as low as it is, really.

Songfacts: I recently interviewed Michael Gilbert from the band FLOTSAM AND JETSAM, and he mentioned that he'd like to work with you again. Would you ever entertain the thought of maybe doing some shows or a new album with FLOTSAM AND JETSAM at some point?

Jason: Well, I wrote a few songs for their new record, "Ugly Noise". I gave them the title for the album and lyrics for the main song and all that kind of stuff. That's all my stuff, so I contributed to the last one. They have actually asked me this week to play on the "No Place For Disgrace" re-recording, and now we're in the same territory of the last question again. I don't believe, really, in that kind of thing, going back and re-recording stuff. It just doesn't seem right. It seems like stepping backwards to me, and I want to move forward. I was up until 5 o'clock this morning working on a new song that Mike Mushok and I have together, and I really think we have something with this one. So I have enough of my own stuff going on and I'm moving forward with new material. So bless them for going back and doing "No Place", and that's all good. But I won't be taking a part in any of that. I'll always be a supporter of FLOTSAM AND JETSAM, but I'm not going to be in their band or anything like that.

> Мне кажется, что эта проблема высосана из пальца, для меня этот диск идеален. Он представляет собой достоверный слепок того времени и молодых нас. Возвращаться в студию, чтобы перезаписывать собственные альбомы, которые уже давно стали классикой, — это глупость.

Эти мудрые слова да Manowar в уши!

Бассист говорит * Для меня идеальный альбом на котором совсем не слышно баса * ХаХа тогда возникает резонный вопрос А нафига ты тогда нужен и получаешь зарплату ? а по теме перезапись альбома это конечно глупость несусветная а вот ремастер на котором слышен бас самое то я б послушал

Не надо перевирать - он сказал, что считает этот альбом таковым, аже не смотря на то, что там не слышно баса (хотя я дома акустике хорошей таки слышу его). Это ж не значит, что для него рецепт идеального альбома тот, где баса не слышно)

""Возвращаться в студию, чтобы перезаписывать собственные альбомы, которые уже давно стали классикой, — это глупость"

Эти мудрые слова да Manowar в уши!"

На мой взгляд и слух, перезаписанный спустя 20 лет "Stay Hungry" Твистэд Систер - никакая не глупость, например.

О боги, он так скоро станет похож на Вима Вендерса )))

Надо же, а раньше ведь его это сильно беспокоило. Он даже оправдывался, что потом подучился и на TBA всё было нормально.
Одного не пойму до сих пор: как его взяли в Metallica?
27 дек 2013
С басистами у Метлы очень странная история. Бёртон для них очень много значил, они так и не смогли пережить до конца его потерю. Место в группе как бы до сих пор за ним. А это значит, что любой приходящий на его место натыкается на этот призрак и не чувствует себя "своим", равным остальным. Так было с Ньюстедом, так есть с Трухильо.
27 дек 2013
Металлика с Бёртоном и без него - разные группы. Если в Justice его влияние ещё чувствуется, то дальше по нисходящей. Может быть, басисты и понимают, чьё место они занимали и испытывают некий трепет, но Джеймсу, Кирку и Ларсу не до этого. Больше денег, больше известности: симфонии, баллады, фильмы, антарктиды - удалось удержаться и закрепиться на волне, на которую их подбросил монстр и ушёл...
3 янв 2014
Так же как Металлика с Ньюстедом и без. Щас совсем попса стала. Ну, зато продается. Винить тут не в чем. Деньги нужны всем (если ты не лох), и побольше.
