➡️ Well, this is the one - this is THE song that completely changed how I viewed the bass guitar when I heard it over 20 years ago. Cliff Burton left such a vast mark on the metal music world with his innovative approach to the instrument, and how he subverted the role of the bass in heavy metal. I finally scratched the itch to cover this song on my channel, because honestly, I just get giddy talking about all the amazing aspects it boasts. In this video, I dive deep into "Orion" by Metallica, from their 1986 masterpiece "Master Of Puppets", which is essentially a showcase of Cliff's bass wizardry, composition, and a glimpse into his musical influences. I focus on the many roles the bass takes within the song, the brilliance of the interlude's composition, and the legendary bass solo that showed me what bass playing could really be about.
