I was just thinking, dude Cliff's been dead for so long... And still so very present, and praised, he spent so few years among us but became a legend forever! Hail Cliff!
My best friend just passed away, he had this speaker in his car that made the bass super loud so the car would vibrate, I put on this song and with the bass slowly creeping in, my friend and I looked at each other and were like, “oh shit”, I’ll miss you Tim, you’re forever in my heart.
If you can imagine it, then play it. That's what being a musician is. Then it's yours and you can share it. What you're saying is be inspired by him. I can agree with that. I won't give credit for things that never happened though. Lars and James are still alive and look how that turned out..... (they did have a few decent ones but went downhill)
RIP to RAY BURTON who passed away at 92 years young. He can now listen to CLIFF play in heaven. No father should ever have to bury a son, and he had to bury 2 yet always remained so damn positive throughout his life. Gonna miss the old guy.
Rip to both, but how friggin scared of getting old must you be that you're saying he was 92 years young? It doesn't even make any sense. He was 92 years old.
@@Vladutz.19 This guy remained damn young, in his mind, despite time his body endured life... I find the expression "92 years young" pretty fitting, actually...
Woke up to go to work in 1986, turned on the radio to 105.5 KNAC, and the DJ said Cliff had died in a bus accident. I was devastated..... I was lucky enough to see Cliff in Metallica at the Long Beach area when they opened for Ozzy. Not too long after, was lucky enough to see Metallica at Jezebel's in Anaheim trying out Jason. Both those concerts were under $20. What a time to be alive.
I saw the same tour in Frisco 86, I was 13, lived in Santa Cruz with my mysterious Dad that was developing the chip in everything now, blew my mind, they were filming Lost Boys on the boardwalk, what a time to be alive, I am now a ex Warmoth Guitars painter, Roxy Guitar Finish cofounder, now backyard one off custom builder trained by master JP Guitars/ shipyard worker outa Seattle aboard Navy ships. Hope your doin well, let me know if you want a badass axe me bray, here's to ya!
Happy birthday, Cliff Burton! You would've turned 56 today. Although the cruel world took you away from us too soon, you still gave us a lifetime's worth of joy with your beautiful music. You promised your brother Scott that you would become the best bassist ever. Great job, Cliff, you certainly did it, and we will love you and continue your legacy forever.
At 5:42 starts the riff that Cliff played for Kirk, for the first time. Kirt says that he was absolutely blown away. Responded to him by saying " i didn't know Bass could be played like that" I saw this on one of there 1000's of hours of back stage interview clips and im reminded by this quote every time i hear this.
Synthetic Parallels and it seems I'm good at both and have my own voice on both.but I feel like I'll always be a bassist because i always listen to what the bass is doing to it all
Metallica - Orion Lyrics: turu tu turu tu turu ruru turu tu tu turu tuturururu dhegdhegdhem dhegdhem demdem den den den dheg dheg dhem dheg dhem de de derem turu tuturu tuturururu
This is how Orion should have sounded on Master of Puppets! I don't know why Metallica seem to turn down the bass during mixing, because this sounds epic. Cliff Burton was not just the best bassist Metallica had, but maybe even the best all around musician too. I mean, Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth) For example, it's epic and brilliant.
it is mainly because of their Tennis playing sissy boy of a drummer. he fucks up every mix-just look at ...And Justice For All-I know the reason why Jason's bass tracks were turned down,but why release a record if you're still in mourning over your mates death.... and profits for all.
By far the most talented member of Metallica was and always will be Dave Mustaine, he wrote their first album and then went on to form one of the most successful metal bands in history not named Metallica. Cliff was immortal.
When i was much younger , 15 years ago , my grandparents took me to a vacation and the road trip was quite long , i put master of puppets album and they didn't rly like this .. but when orion kicked in , during the bass interlude in the middle , they were clearly captivated by Cliff's work ..This show how much of a Legend Cliff is!
Same story here my friend. Once came home from skool one day and master of puppets album was playing full decibels, first I thought it was my sister or my younger brother but no it was my mother cleaning the house
Almost 35 years after his passing, Cliff's bass playing style is still revolutionary, in my opinion. No wonder he's considered one of the best, even though he's only recorded just 3 full albums.
I was born in 1984. I was 2 years-old when Cliff played this... I fell in love the first time I heard it, and saw the "Master" behind Cliff. Now I'm 40 and still I think he's the best bass guitar player I've ever heard...
Jayk Roach anyone who can wring that kind of sound from four strings is a genius in my book!! Cliff is (was) a prodigy!! Much like Brian Carrol, AKA Buckethead.
I'm 53 now and I can remember seeing him play at Poughkeepsie Civic Center here in New York they were with Motley Crue still in makeup LOL armored saint and wasp awesome show
The hidden gem from 8:04-8:15, speaks of Cliff’s ingenuity and utter skill, imho. The subtleties he came up with added a special touch to every Metallica song that Cliff contributed to, and that is what made the first three albums so amazing and original. A true legend gone way before his time. RIP Cliff Burton, one of my greatest inspirations! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻⚡️⚡️
@@drumjoedrum Obviously cuz the mix isn't proportional to the musician's talent, otherwise it would be a drum-less song with the guitar 100m away from the mic and Cliff right near to it
@@charlielucas3386 I believe in the Puppets era he had moved on from the Ricky, that’s all I know… I’m a drummer, my knowledge of basses is limited. I plays a bit, but all I have is a 5 string SDGR, and a PA but no working bass amp atm. 😂
To be sure! Only one that comes close is "To live is to die" on his farewell album. God bless you, you metal genius. Thank you for all the soul crunchingly amazing music 🎶
That part and the bass solo later on are overdubs. If you listen closely Cliff is still playing the root notes underneath from his main take, otherwise the low-end of the track would suddenly thin out when he goes high up on the neck. No doubt he could’ve pulled the whole song off in one take, but it’s a good production choice to keep the low-end consistent
I have to admit that years ago whem I first listened to Orions individual instrument tracks I thought the playing was kinda sloppy... I recently bought a bass (I play guitar), and wanted to learn some songs on bass and gave Orions a chance. boy SO little did I know, this song is hard to play properly... what seems to sound relatively easy on guitar, turns out that keeping up with the same riff but on bass is actually very fucking hard, the galoping is a four hit thing, not 3... so one of the fingers HAS to hit twice quite fast. Talk about hittin myself in the mouth with a brick. NEW FOUND respect, I was so ignorant.
I'm sorry, but no. God didn't take him, I don't believe in God but if there really exists this guy that is super humble and kind and shit, he would NEVER EVER take away a guy like him. He didn't finish his job, he was barely starting. It's like you're saying that he had to die. Fuck you honestly.
My son switched from piano to bass…. He can deny it all he wants to. Hes heard them alll. Especially Cliff. I can sense his overall approach.. the finger movements. You cannot and will not deny what has punched you straight in the face and what has captured your enthrallment. Let it go, Son. Go. Cliff!!
I think that I've listened to Orion probably about 400 times in my life since it was released back in the 80's. It was always just that long song on the tape/ album/ CD before Damage Inc. but now this does give it new life. Enough life to clear out some space for it on the organic hard drive.
CLIFF EM ALL!❤RIP CLIFF!I'm 50 now and I've missed ya since '86!U were 1 of a kind bro,that's a FACT!Love ya and miss ya my guy!I hope Valhalla is treating u,rand,Dime and Vinny,van Zant!Hope u all Kicking ass jamming it up!Thanks for the good times and the old days.Never been the same without u dude but yer family has done u justice bro!You'd be proud!See ya soon my guy!
George Macauley I finger pick a lot when playing guitar and I've played that way for years so bass kind of came naturally, already being very used to playing without a pick. Only thing that bugged me at first was the thick strings but I got used to it quickly. And I only picked up bass at first to learn this song so I was determined lol.
My first song I learned on bass was Fade to Black, and like you, it was because of Cliff's playing. I had taped FTB off the radio and the bass was way up on that particular version (don't know why, just got lucky). I wore out that tape 30 years ago.
Person in car next to me: *Loud Rap music with bass boost, challenging me* Me: Motherf*cker you don't know what you got yourself into. *Plays This at max bass boosted volume*
I'm actually a guitarist myself but the fact that there is no one like Cliff these theys bug me so much i think i'm getting a bass guitar out of inspiration. Totally awesome.
Without a doubt, this is the best version of this song that I've ever heard... It would be amazing to hear every Metallica song that Cliff played on mixed like this. Thank you for this!
@@TheRealTurnedEvil I don't get why people think songs need lyrics to count as music. Some songs would be totally ruined if they had lyrics, Orion especially.
6:36 through 6:56 is jaw dropping he threw on the distortion and wah and did the solo verbatim on bass with kirk. I never realized that was cliff back in the day harmonizing on that part. I am now convinced Cliff was some celestial being that showed up to make fun of a Kirk Hammet solo.
I love this guy! What a tragic loss. I will never forget the day he died I was like fuck will Metallica ever be as good. This is the first time i have rally thought about it and I think its a definite NO
Burton was one of the best bassists of his time. When he passed away in that accident, the world lost a great musician. Metallica was not quite the same after he died. I am glad we still have recordings of him that we all can enjoy today.
That intro, it has to be my favorite intro in any song inn any genre. I love hip hop and i mean that underground grimmy lyrical shit, i love funk, i love soul and oldies and cumbias but no matter how many songs i listen the first 59 seconds is my all time favorite.
Wow.......I've Been down with Metallica since the early eighties. This version of this song made me drop a tear. Holy smokes. R.I.P. Cliff. Forever Heavy.
But if they want it louder, then they're probably looking for an isolated track. You can't have an instrument way too loud, otherwise it would never gel with the rest of the band. My mix brings the bass to the lead spectrum, which is usually filled with guitars, or drums or vocals, depending on which band we're talking about. Very rarely with basses, though. The only bands I can think of that feature basses in metal/rock that are also leading are Iron Maiden, Rush, Royal Blood (for obvious reasons), RHCP, Primus, The Who, etc... maybe I'm forgetting some bands, but it's very hard to find bass-laden ones.

Jason Stoutenger No son, just a fact that bass is not a lead instrument. I'm 48, had all metallica demos and all material. even still have the hit parader issue with cliff interview. I was skating in the park when my buddy rode up on his dirt bike a.d told me that cliff was dead.. I will never forget.. fuckin tragedy.
@@alextamulis Anthrax. You can hear Frankie in the mix, even on their early albums. It would have been cool if the 3 albums Cliff was on were mixed like Anthrax's, AJFA too.
Cliff them all! sin duda un gran bajista que entendió bien la música y su instrumento. Me parece escuchar la evolución de la música clásica... y todo por la dedicación de Cliff a pulir su habilidad.
Una de las mejores interpretaciones en bajo no solo del metal sino del rock en general, obra maestra del inmortal Cliff........el fue el alma de Metallica y la furia de esos 3 grandiosos discos donde el tocó, siempre te recordaremos Mr.Burton!!
Cliff is the reason I picked up the bass, his writing genius and his ability to improv on an already perfect bassline are why hes the best and will always be missed. RIP Cliff. CLIFF EM" ALL!!!
I think Mozart would have been completely blown away and would have loved this masterpiece if you had a true love for music Cliff was a pure genius God bless his soul I feel bad for Metallica cuz when they lost him that's when they lost it all nothing sounds as good as it was with they had Cliff with them

@@Darek225Army I'm not rude, just saying that you (op) are the asshole for saying that a death was supposed to happen. You just suck.
6:37 gives me the chills every time
You look clildren!
Was it kirk in the beginning too or just bass
Just the bass, not until the riff comes is when Kirk hops on
COD ProCamp ALL solos on this song is cliff
COD ProCamp Kirk does jump in at certain parts but the solos are cliff
The 679 people that gave this a thumbs down have no idea what true music is and never will.
Straight up
They got tricked into modern day shity pop music , accept from knife party
They are the people that like everything from the brown album up.
Fakts
Nah it was people in Australia
It's crazy, I stand here and read the comments with so much love. You missed Cliff so very much by millions of fans. You will never be forgotten!!
Love the galloping sound of his playing
Me too! I just wish it was mixed a tad bit louder, hehe
Who invented galloping sound?
Mike Mason dont forget iron maiden
WTF, i like reguetón, foos
nateeto I don't know who invented it, but the best performer known for using it is Steve Harris of Iron Maiden.
And every time I feel like crying... it's not only the thought of Cliff, it's the sheer beauty of this track.
Starts about the 5 min mark to about 630
On this day we lost a legend.
*Daughter: Mommy why is the lightning so scary?*
*Mother: Don't worry honey, it's just Cliff shredding bass in heaven.*
There's just Cliff Riding The Lightning

Clifford Is The Best BASS Player 4 Ever. I Love Him
Valtteri Laitinen Fuck yeah 🤘😈🤘
Yeah brother cool. He de virginized my ears back in 84.
6:16-6:37 😵💫 WOW!!! The epic build up and the bass/lead conversation is immensely hypnotizing.
Blasting this so loud that Cliff can hear this. R.I.P. Cliff.
Cliff: (drags from joint, holds for 5 seconds) Thanks, dude!
RIP his dad also
@@Flaco-ip7cl His dad is still alive
@@th6n ..
He died already..I think it happened over the weekend..I saw it on Instagram
@@Flaco-ip7cl Really sad news. R.I.P. Thanks for letting me know.
youtubes getting really fucking brave putting an ad during the ending of this masterpiece
Yeah ik
Check out the TH-cam Vanced app. Look it up, and you're welcome
Get Premium and stop whining...😂😂😂
It took we way longer than I'm proud of to realize that it wasn't Kirk playing that solo towards the end. Cliff was a genius

I like eleffson better
@@bcloudy712bruh
@@bcloudy712nah man, eleffson is a good bass player but cliff owns the bass
shit before this cut I had never noticed the little bass runs at the end
ralexlu great licks
Whaaaaaaaaaattt??
ralexlu 🤤 OMG....
It just feels amazing
Me neither but I think those were during the fade out on the CD.
My old man brought me up on Metallica, Pink Floyd and Pearl Jam as a kid , 21 now and will continue this till I no longer breathe, R.I.P Cliff
Whenever I listen to orion........ my neighbors listen to Orion
my street feels orion
Let it be written...
Mine invite the police to come listen to it too
My neighbor just slammed his door he was talking on his porch really loud so I kicked up the bass RIP Cliff thanks
That’s fucking TIGHT 👍🏼💪🏾👁👁👁👁🗣🗣🗣!!!!
My son switched from piano to bass…. He can deny it all he wants to. Hes heard them alll. Especially Cliff. I can sense his overall approach.. the finger movements. You cannot and will not deny what has punched you straight in the face and what has captured your enthrallment. Let it go, Son. Go. Cliff!!
Those bass lines are so clean, full of rock groove and melodic. A true talented rocker.
This has more views than the Original one; RIP CLIFF!!
That's the transformative power of Cliff's performance, I'm so stoked we have reached this milestone! We need to thank Cliff's legacy: his bass art.
First time hearing this version glad I did love this song cliff was just so different from all the bass players
If there was ever a need for a number 11 on the volume switch
@Blue collar Silver dollar
"These go to 11"
Damnit, that's FUNNY, and oh so true at the same time!
Spinal Tap😄😄😄
I think that I've listened to Orion probably about 400 times in my life since it was released back in the 80's. It was always just that long song on the tape/ album/ CD before Damage Inc. but now this does give it new life. Enough life to clear out some space for it on the organic hard drive.
Cliff and Harris influenced me to play bass. Metal royalty. Each of them freaking amazing. My biggest influences.
Steve’s flatwounds are the shit. I would definitely recommend a set.
Geddy and Ox Entwistle, please ...there's more, but I am not trying to punish,just educate!! Elevate !!
Steve Harris, Geddy Lee, Bob Daisley and Cliff Burton got me jammin Bass guitar for 40 years +🤘
Cliff em all !
Have not heard Orion with Cliff's bass this loud ever before. His play was epic, truly epic.
Better than newsted for sure
CLIFF EM ALL!❤RIP CLIFF!I'm 50 now and I've missed ya since '86!U were 1 of a kind bro,that's a FACT!Love ya and miss ya my guy!I hope Valhalla is treating u,rand,Dime and Vinny,van Zant!Hope u all Kicking ass jamming it up!Thanks for the good times and the old days.Never been the same without u dude but yer family has done u justice bro!You'd be proud!See ya soon my guy!
8:04-8:14 I never heard that before
ps3t same 👌
Listen to the isolated bass track.
wow ....me too man ....I've listened to this song like a million times but never heard that part !!!
ps3t hell yeah. that was nice
I know the bass chart for GH Metallica charted that part like that but I've never heard it clearly like this before.
Tomorrow, 35 years ago, he passed away, thanks Cliff, for the music that you create, thanks for this masterpiece ❤️
BEAUTIFUL!!! Cliff was Hendrix on bass!!!
Hendrix was real heavy on bass too
Hendrix is Hendrix and Cliff is Cliff
Do not mix
That is a Gen Z comment if I ever heard one.
@@AliceWonderWhy hendrix could play bass guitar to a great level
RIP Cliff Burton. Your unique contribution to music has immortalised you. Thank you!
Such a masterpiece. As a guitar player first I only picked up a bass too because of cliffs playing. First song I learned on bass was Orion.
A masterpiece indeed!
I really find it difficult to believe that Orion was the first song you learned to play on the bass guitar.
George Macauley I finger pick a lot when playing guitar and I've played that way for years so bass kind of came naturally, already being very used to playing without a pick. Only thing that bugged me at first was the thick strings but I got used to it quickly. And I only picked up bass at first to learn this song so I was determined lol.
George Macauley was one of the first songs I learned to play also.
My first song I learned on bass was Fade to Black, and like you, it was because of Cliff's playing. I had taped FTB off the radio and the bass was way up on that particular version (don't know why, just got lucky). I wore out that tape 30 years ago.
Person in car next to me: *Loud Rap music with bass boost, challenging me*
Me: Motherf*cker you don't know what you got yourself into. *Plays This at max bass boosted volume*
I'm doing that now lol
Calm your ego. No one is challenging you LOL.
I'm actually a guitarist myself but the fact that there is no one like Cliff these theys bug me so much i think i'm getting a bass guitar out of inspiration. Totally awesome.
Dimebag Darrel check Geddy Lee, Billy Sheehan, Chris Squire, Dave Ellefson, Marco Mendoza, John Myung, Rudy Sarzo etc
We miss you...
Cliff is a fucking leyend of the bass.
PD: We miss u brotha
you must not listen to enough good music to think that
come on . billy sheehan has been doing this for decades . i love Cliff but his not the only one . PS : RIP To both of you :D
Without a doubt, this is the best version of this song that I've ever heard... It would be amazing to hear every Metallica song that Cliff played on mixed like this.
Thank you for this!
People: And the lyrics?
Me: Yes.
Every time my wife asks me why there aren't lyrics in this song I just tell her because cliffs bass speaks loud enough
@@TheRealTurnedEvil I don't get why people think songs need lyrics to count as music. Some songs would be totally ruined if they had lyrics, Orion especially.
Y la letra????
Yo: see letra jjaajaja
Only Cliff Burton and Chuck Norris know the lyrics to this song.
There are lyrics, if you can listen close enough, you hear the souls of legends crying out in metal.
this is how all metal albums would've sounded according to their bassists vision
fuckin true hahahah!!
Especially Jason Newstead haha
So true🤘
If it was an early Iron Maiden mix....lol
cliff Burton was to bass as dime bag was to guitar
Trey Hildesheim I fucking agree
need more e85
No dimebag was like cliff but on guitar
*like dimebag on guitar and Lombardo on Drums
both insanely overrated because they died?
6:36 through 6:56 is jaw dropping he threw on the distortion and wah and did the solo verbatim on bass with kirk. I never realized that was cliff back in the day harmonizing on that part.
I am now convinced Cliff was some celestial being that showed up to make fun of a Kirk Hammet solo.
This part of the solo was played only by Cliff
Yep he double tracked and harmonized with himself
Cliff Burton thank you, as the world goes to shit around us, i listen to this and my soul is at ease. rip brother
I love this guy! What a tragic loss. I will never forget the day he died I was like fuck will Metallica ever be as good. This is the first time i have rally thought about it and I think its a definite NO
Cliff, Geddy, Geezer, & Steve Harris 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Yes
Hell yeah
... and don‘t forget us we are M.....😉
+ Lemmy! ;-)
God Lemmy first
my only regret, is that I can only give this video but one like
Make more accounts or just say a million likes
Agreeeeeeeed
Is that a reference to Nathan Hale’s last words?
Burton was one of the best bassists of his time. When he passed away in that accident, the world lost a great musician. Metallica was not quite the same after he died. I am glad we still have recordings of him that we all can enjoy today.
That intro, it has to be my favorite intro in any song inn any genre. I love hip hop and i mean that underground grimmy lyrical shit, i love funk, i love soul and oldies and cumbias but no matter how many songs i listen the first 59 seconds is my all time favorite.
From cumbias to Metallica. Quite a leap
@@jimgritty7064 it is but 🤷🏽♂️
@@intergalacticchicano good wide taste in music 👍
@@jimgritty7064 many thanks brother
This gallopping sound is the shit.
I agree!
Bruno Carvalho cliffs AMAZING fingers!!!
Bruno Carvalho four horsemen
definitely
He can still shake my desk from his grave.
New Game he wasnt burried he was ashed.
Potadoge he can shake it from the ocean
Hentai Master yea 😂
fuck yes!!
Beware what if if he’s not👻
Great show, emotions as well..., Cliff was unique. Rest in Peace Brother
Wow.......I've Been down with Metallica since the early eighties. This version of this song made me drop a tear. Holy smokes. R.I.P. Cliff. Forever Heavy.
So those 4 thumbs down actually wanted Cliff's sound to be reduced in the mix ....you cant quiet the genius of cliffs legacy you misguided fools!
Yeah, totally! Cliff them all!!
But if they want it louder, then they're probably looking for an isolated track. You can't have an instrument way too loud, otherwise it would never gel with the rest of the band. My mix brings the bass to the lead spectrum, which is usually filled with guitars, or drums or vocals, depending on which band we're talking about. Very rarely with basses, though. The only bands I can think of that feature basses in metal/rock that are also leading are Iron Maiden, Rush, Royal Blood (for obvious reasons), RHCP, Primus, The Who, etc... maybe I'm forgetting some bands, but it's very hard to find bass-laden ones.
Jason Stoutenger No son, just a fact that bass is not a lead instrument.
I'm 48, had all metallica demos and all material. even still have the hit parader issue with cliff interview.
I was skating in the park when my buddy rode up on his dirt bike a.d told me that cliff was dead..
I will never forget..
fuckin tragedy.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@alextamulis Anthrax. You can hear Frankie in the mix, even on their early albums. It would have been cool if the 3 albums Cliff was on were mixed like Anthrax's, AJFA too.
6:36 GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS EVERY DAMN TIME
Cliff them all! sin duda un gran bajista que entendió bien la música y su instrumento. Me parece escuchar la evolución de la música clásica... y todo por la dedicación de Cliff a pulir su habilidad.
Cliffs masterpiece
God bless you, man! God bless Cliff's soul.
Amen brother! One of the best best bass players in METAL!!!!!
André De Lemos metallica never be the same without cliff.
Una de las mejores interpretaciones en bajo no solo del metal sino del rock en general, obra maestra del inmortal Cliff........el fue el alma de Metallica y la furia de esos 3 grandiosos discos donde el tocó, siempre te recordaremos Mr.Burton!!
Te imaginarias como fuera metallica si no hubiera muerto el gran Cliff...😢...un genio ese pana.
Let's not forget how young these dudes were at the time they wrote this banger. Insane talent.
6:38 to 6:57. I have always loved this song, but that solo, played in time, with the guitars, made the hair on my arms stand up. Damn....
That's a bass solo by cliff..
That's all bass bro all bass
Jesus cliff could gallop his fingers better than a mustang! Much love to cliff and the creator of this killer sound mix.
On those gallops, Cliff used only two fingers.
Mustane didn’t play bass
@@Feeldaburn 🤪
Because of this song, I learned to play bass guitar.RIP Cliff
Cliff is the reason I picked up the bass, his writing genius and his ability to improv on an already perfect bassline are why hes the best and will always be missed. RIP Cliff. CLIFF EM" ALL!!!
This song goes to show just how good the legendary cliff burton was at bass Cliff em all !!!
I think Mozart would have been completely blown away and would have loved this masterpiece if you had a true love for music Cliff was a pure genius God bless his soul I feel bad for Metallica cuz when they lost him that's when they lost it all nothing sounds as good as it was with they had Cliff with them
33 years ago today we lost a legend. Cliff would have loved this. Amazing work, thank you.
after cliff and dime passing, i do not care for any new music artist to shine...i shall remain in their time...forever
