Scott's Instrumental Metal Track of the Day - Orion by Metallica

In honor of tonight's show, today's Instrumental Metal Track is my favorite song by my favorite band off of the greatest heavy metal album of all time. The guitar and bass solos from 3:58 - 7:31 are just a thing of beauty. For some reason, when I was little, I always pictured a lady slowly dancing with a basket of fruit on her head. I know it sounds weird, but to me it was beautiful and fitting.

It's songs like this that make me weep, thinking about what the world was robbed of when Cliff left us too soon. This will be the 5th time I've seen Metallica and they have yet to play this live. I think mostly out of respect for Cliff (RIP). Maybe tonight is the night.
