My son who passed away a few weeks ago at just 19 was a life long Metallica fan, and talented guitarist. He used to play Orion all the time, he also loved listening to it on vinyl. As we scattered his ashes yesterday we played Orion in his honour. Thank you Metallica for creating such a timeless masterpiece.

I admitted your point, but just for your information, with nowadays technology, all the instrument tracks are recorded isolatedly in the form of non processed direct injection (sorta sound like a clean tone) or raw processed signal (though I’m 100% sure which technique the Metallica crew use for the show). Thus, the sound from the crowd is probably separately recorded, and later put in the mix during the production of the live mix. Accordingly, the silence we hear may be just the intention of the producer to cut out the crowd’s noise. However, it is the result that matters, and the final production of their live show is great as always (not only to deliver the best sound of band but also to show the atmosphere of the live situation with all the audiences there).

i disagree, trujillo is a great player in his own right, just not a great fit for the style, in this song his sound is not complementary to the guitars, it just creates a muddy drone when the duet of guitars plays, unlike cliff’s version that actually creates a background of sound so the guitars flow into , and he plays as he likes the parts that are suppose to have a lot of clarity and detail, all the arpeggios are not played as original, overall i think ulrich also destroys this rendition with his lack of accuracy on the bass drum or lack therof, also addign fills at every step to cover his mistakes, in general their sound as. a band is bad, hard to understand for such big band, the guitars for example have almost no process added, no slight delay or effects such as compression or anything, at least is not apparent as they sound raw and the fact that kirk skill has been in decline doesn’t help either, it is very clear to hear many mistakes in his solos specially. They used to be good when times where not great, now times are great they just give a fak about their music, money and fame just destroyed this band.

ROCK IN PARADISE, CLIFF! WE MISS YOU!

Happy 40-th Anniversary with Metallica!

We miss you Cliff

While Cliff Burton will always be the greatest bassist Metallica has ever seen, you cannot deny the fact that Rob is the absolute perfect replacement.

Rob, you killed it!!! Cliff would be proud my brother!!!! James, hang in there bro, you're a King! Don't forget it!!!

Every time James walks over and looks at Rob, it’s like a proud father watching his son. Rob plays this so well. I love how they pay homage to Cliff in this. Also, Kirk is just a pro’s pro on lead guitar. Hits every note every time. He is very underrated. He has said not a day goes by where he doesn’t play the guitar. For guy who’s been at it for 40 years, that’s pretty damn good. Incredible peace of music.

​@@aarongrimes6490 I want to reiterate that I owe a lot of my life to Kirk and without him I probably wouldn't have picked up the guitar, etc. This isn't me bashing him. Ok now, having said that... I am not sure it's improvisation, it could be. However even if that's the case, he's super sloppy in almost every way. I am specifically talking about live concerts. The bends are very, very often out of tune. Some "improvised" notes sometimes are, although this is more uncommon, out of key. And, I don't know if you play guitar but there's an auditory texture when you don't fully press the string on the fretboard and/or when your fingers touch the ringing string by mistake and the sound comes out dampened or blunted in a bad way. It makes him sound very amateurish and sloppy. He does that also quite often. There's guitarists who do this for effect but it's usually for certain songs and certain genera.

Was, arguably, the greatest Bassist in Heavy Metal history. Was why Metallica became so successful. Is loved and missed by millions of people.

Hammett writes the lead parts, yes. He did get lessons from Joe Satriani .Burton had a huge influence on all members of the band & was the main catalyst for writing those epic guitar harmonies on the lightning & puppets zlbums though because he had classical music training. Burton wrote Orion originally as an 8 min ending to Sanitarium

Hammett was the reason why I picked up a guitar at 9 years old hoping to one day shred like he did in the early years. He gets alot of flak for being too wah pedal happy these days, but you can't deny his talent and influence.
