Orion
By: Metallica
Tabbed By: Kane Bochatyn (JenoUnion)
This is Cliff's bassline for Orion tabbed out. Took me a few hours
to do, and I realized that this is much different than what
all the other tabs show (at least in the Verses). Well, enjoy.
Any questions, comments, or concerns, contact me at DarkCloud1916@aol.com
OR CryofthePlanet@hotmail.com. Link to the bass only is here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVPCC6V3xRs. Please note that some of
the minor changes at the ends of the main interlude riff are very
subtle and hard to catch at times, but if you omit them it should
still sound just fine.
