Ooh, ooh... Into the Void by Sabbath. What a jam! DC Ross... I so agree with your picks. Those are my favorite bands for so long. And as long as we have GnR on the table, what about everyone's fav Welcome to the Jungle.

Mudcat Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I saw some references to Nugent. I don't think anyone has mentioned "Great White Buffalo." I always thought that was a great opening riff. Mudcat's music on Soundclick "Work hard. Rock hard. Eat hard. Sleep hard. Grow big.

Gifthorse Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Yeah no shit. Tons. Midnite man, Tend my Garden, Take a look around, LIfe in the Fastlane (is this joe? sounds like him) Joe is a badass at instrumentals. I love the ending to the solo in 'the bomber'.

The Lone Chicken Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 One great rock guitar intro that comes to my mind is found on "Autograph", the opening track on the album "Colours" (Light Records, 1980) by Resurrection Band (a.k.a. "Rez"). Although Stu Heiss did most of the lead guitar work for Rez, Glenn Kaiser (the band's leader, co-lead singer, and other guitarist) did an absolutely smoking lead guitar intro on "Autograph" that actually took up about the first third of the song. As for great jazz guitar intros, much of Pat Metheny's work with Pat Metheny Group comes to mind. Two songs that stand out in my mind at this moment are "Phase Dance", on the album "Pat Metheny Group" (ECM, 1978), and the title track from "American Garage" (ECM, 1979). Another one that comes to my mind is the title track to "Land of the Midnight Sun" (Columbia, 1976) by Al DiMeola. Robert J. ("Bob") Welch III "If you were the only person who ever lived, God still would have sent Jesus His only Son to die on the cross for YOU, because that is how much HE LOVES YOU!"

Danzilla Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I'll go for some more obscure ones: The Who: "In a Hand Or Face" (Who By Numbers); Pete's opening lead in "Guitar & Pen" (Who Are You) Marillion: "Alone Again In the Lap Of Luxury" (Brave) simple series of pulloffs, but sets a great attitude for the rest of the song. "One Fine Day" (This Strange Engine) Nice emotive bluesy licks. Switchfoot: "Meant To Live" nice stereo trade-offs in that riff. Petra: Tons; ""Speak to the Sky"- pull offs from heaven! "Without Him We Can Do Nothing", "All About Who You Know"; "Second Wind" etc... Tree63: "Our King"; "Treasure"; "You Only" And a semi-classic from my teens: Tommy Conwell & The Young Rumblers: "I'm Not Your Man" "Am I enough of a freak to be worth paying to see?"- Separated Out (Marillion) NEW band Old band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedro Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 I've always liked it when a tune will start with a signature solo. The Scorpions were great for that. No One Like You was great and Rock You Like a Hurricane had a stunner of an opener. Everybody knows rock attained perfection in 1974.
