Best Riff in Music!
 
It is what the title says. Your favorite riff(s) in music, what song - artist - time in song.

----------------------

The First that comes to mind for me is Buckethead - Crime Slunk Scene. The song Buddy Berkman's Ballad, nearing the end. (2:49)

The intro to David Wilcox's (Canadian) "Hot, Hot Papa" intro riff.

the bass line in Peace Frog by The Doors.

ProggyMan 06-11-2008 09:56 PM
The Man Who Sold The World, it's the most distinctive riff ever written.

sleepy jack 06-11-2008 10:11 PM
It's not any more distinctive than Iron Man, Seven Nation Army or Smoke on the Water.

Don Martin 3 - Fire as a Metaphor 4 (main guitar riff)

I cannot decide because there are just too many good ones.

Led Zeppelin wrote the best riffs ever. They have at least 20 songs instantly recognizable by their main riff.

Probably only myself and Urban will like this:

Tell me a little bit about Indian Summer, I got a few cd's with some songs of theirs given to me to listen to, but I have been pretty indifferent up to now.

I thought everyone liked Hawkwind by default.

I'll go with Magic Potion by The Open Mind. This song has serious rif***e all over it.


Edit: Lol word filter.
