[@chuckharker7687]

Metallica bass player Cliff Burton died on September 27, 1986 when the band's tour bus went off the road, the album was released March 3, 1986. Burton had cited "Orion" as one of his favorite Metallica songs. He had a big part in writing the song (along with James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich), and his performance on the track is regarded as one of the best of his career. The song was played at his funeral on October 7th, 1986. The album Master of Puppets was their 3rd studio album. The part here you got the feels was actually when Cliffs bass solo started. He was such a talent on bass and in his writing that it is hard to imagine what he could have given the music world. He was only 24 yrs old when he died, so the song that you just reacted to was performed by a bunch of guys in their early 20's. Hard to believe that at 24 were on their 3rd studio album, its no wonder why Metallica is still performing today.

[@andyb1653]

The Gods of Mt. Metal needed a bass player. He was too beautiful for this world. This is also the reason Rhoads died (also in an accident involving a tour bus- that's the "tell" that the Gods of Mt. Metal were behind it).

[@lsu1992]

I actually listened to it fully for the first time a couple months ago. It was a reaction video I had playing but wasn't really payin much attention to...but i found myself consumed by it and nearly dizzy by the end. I actually thought it was newer. I dont know much of their newer music(after 2000 or so). Ive never enjoyed an instrumental in my life...won't 4get it...

The Black Queen The "lyrics" in the song are also a poem written by him.

Some haters gonna hate on this, but a lot of the songs on the Loads ( Load and Reload) get pretty bluesy, too. I think both of those albums are way under-rated. They are def a departure, but it shows their diversity and depth, especially in James' writing. You should check them out.

This album is fucking epic, King. "Master of Puppets" has one amazing song after another. When this song pops up on that album it's unexpected but holy god....... Every time I hear this song I get a bit sad because it reminds me of how good of a base player Cliff Burton was. I still don't know how he makes that droning sound in the beginning and I still haven't heard anyone duplicate it properly. If you like instrumentals, you would really like YYZ by Rush.

[@momoneymjp]

Hi Preston, Just wanted you to know the guitar in the beginning is the bass guitar hooked to a synthesizer, and the first solo at the 2:37 mark is also the bass guitar. If you haven't heard Anesthesia Pulling Teeth yet, check that out. Clifford Lee Burton was a bass guitar god. He died in a bus accident in Copenhagen Denmark while on the Master of Puppets tour in 1986. If you could find videos of Cliff live, I think you'd appreciate it more. At the 10:27 mark on your video is also the bass guitar.
