Cliff Burton footage unearthed (w/Rick)

Hey everyone-
Just found out hat there's a video about to be released of Cliff Burton's pre-Metallica band Trauma- apparently the video was shot a day or so before he met those guys and was asked to join the band-I'm not much of a Metallica fan these days, but one of the reasons I got my first Rick in 1985 was seeing pics of Cliff Burton and Lemmy playing Ricks-the link below is to the webpage of the guy who shot the video, and the picture of Cliff on the front page is a still from the video, and he's in full flight w/ a Rick. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that it's the same one he put that huge Gibson-style humbucker on (the one he's using all over "Cliff 'em All" before switching to Arias).
I'm looking forward to seeing this video, for sure.

Excuse me: I meant 5 individual views of the 19 minute long footage for 10 dollars?
