[i'm trying to figure out what this is. for example, in "rider on the wheel," is there a particular segment, or is it throughout the song?]

That descending part during the middle section of metallica's "master of puppets" is nice.

I don't have "Rider on the Wheel" handy on my hard drive, but using "Here Comes the Sun" as an example, the arpeggiated walkdown occurs immediately after the times George sings "...it's alright" (and there's a different one used in the instrumental break).

Okay, scratch "Rider on the Wheel" - I thought you were referring to the main riffs in "Here Comes the Sun" and "Don't Fear the Reaper." Can someone replace #95?
