on this day in 1986...

Metallica bassist Cliff Burton was killed in a tour bus accident in Sweden. he was only 24, but he left this to the world:

no one, huh?

Sorry, I was out listening to Ride the Lightning

I may have berkeleyed up and reported the thread. Scrolling is hard on a phone when you hands shake

Forgot how good old Metallica sounded. Thanks for sharing.

I was watching an old documentary with old footage the other night and those guys were nuts. Mustaine was nuts-er though.

I was just being introduced to Metallica that year.. and even then I didn't really get into it until later 1987 or 1988. Their early stuff is still some of their best.

I still remember that day...
