Hate it or love it, you know the OPs song. Imho, it is the rock song by which all others are judged. I may be following the pack, but i can tell you where I was when I first heard WLL. incredible song and whenever it is on, the radio goes to 11. Lot of great songs mentioned in this thread, but when I die, WLL is one of the 5 songs I want played at the funeral.
you will not find a heavier rock song, trust me thanks for the thread, OP. |

riff noun \'rif
music : a short and usually repeated pattern of notes in a song I had an idea, but still looked it up. Money for nothing, btw. |

What is Life, George Harrison
Aqualung, Tull. Intro riff, and main lead American Band, Grand Funk Railroad. Always a footstomper! Best ever ? Too much good stuff over the years. |

I heard that BBC poll on the radio the other day, and I agreed with most of it.
My favorite guitar riffs of all time are: Layla (Intro), Eric Clapton. Smoke On The Water (Intro), Deep Purple. Whole Lotta Love (Intro), Zep. American Woman (Intro), BTO. Locomotive Breath (@ 1:20 and thereafter), Jethro Tull. ...not necessarily in that order. Those are just a few off the top of my head that I consider "classic." ETA: Oh, and yes, Mark Knopfler deserves to be on this list somewhere too. |
|
|
My favorites:
Blue Sky - Allman Brothers Band (live version) Money for Nothing - Dire Straits Freebird - Lynyrd Skynyrd Johnny B. Goode - Chuck Berry Greatest of all time? Come on Baby (let the Good Times Roll) - Jimi Hendrix |
|
Of course, any mention of great guitar work needs to have Chuck Berry in it as well.
Johnny B. Goode FTW! |
|
Satisfaction - the Rolling Stones
|
|
Can't You Hear Me Kocking - The Rolling Stones
