Happy birthday to the legendary Cliff Burton! Your bass riffs didn't just shake stadiums—they rattled our souls. From your iconic solo in "Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth)" to your unforgettable contributions on albums like "Ride the Lightning" and "Master of Puppets," you've set a standard that still echoes through metal history.Even today, aspiring musicians crank up Metallica tracks, trying desperately—and hilariously—to match your genius. Thanks for inspiring generations with timeless grooves and headbanging anthems. Wherever you are rocking now, we hope you're turning it up loud enough to annoy angels and demons alike. Keep shredding eternally—happy birthday, Cliff!
