FAITH NO MORE Drummer MIKE BORDIN Calls RAY BURTON 'Truly One Of A Kind'On Sunday (January 19), Bordin took to his band's Twitter to write: "R.I.P. to The Great Ray Burton. Hard to put into words My gratitude to Him for all of His kindness and His incredible character. What a huge gift to have had that in My life for 45 years. Truly one of a kind." Ray's stepdaughter Casey revealed in a tribute video that he had died of pneumonia, and that Bordin had been in the hospital during the last week of her stepfather's life to offer support. Ray died just 15 days shy of his 95th birthday. Cliff joined METALLICA in 1982 and performed on the band's first three studio albums: "Kill 'Em All", "Ride The Lightning" and "Master Of Puppets". He also received a posthumous writing credit for the song "To Live Is to Die" from the band's fourth studio album, ".And Justice For All" and was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame as a member of METALLICA on April 4, 2009. His life was tragically cut short at the age of 24 in a tour bus crash on September 27, 1986 in Sweden. Burton's initial replacement in the group was Jason Newsted, who stayed in the lineup until 2001. Robert Trujillo joined in 2003 and remains in the band to this day. February 10, 2018 was proclaimed "Cliff Burton Day" by Alameda County supervisors. The late METALLICA bassist would have turned 56 years old on that date had he lived. R.I.P. to The Great Ray Burton. Hard to put into words My gratitude to Him for all of His kindness and His incredible character. What a huge gift to have had that in My life for 45 years. Truly one of a kind. — Mike Bordin pic.twitter.com/r6w71NqQIt — Faith No More (@FaithNoMore) January 20, 2020 .
