Episode 94 - Ride The Lighting (w/ Commentary)

Continuing on with our commentary series, We sit down at HQ1 and listen along to 'Ride The Lightning!' We break down the intricacies of the songwriting, Kirk's masterful leads, James' matured vocals and the memorable influence and parts of the great Cliff Burton. This is (easily) one of the best thrash and metal records of all time. There will be an episode like this, in the future, for every album.
