Joined: August 2005 Posts: 3736 Location: Sunshine State, Australia | 'Long Time' by Boston. You COULD take the whole of 'Foreplay' as the intro, but the he transition into 'Long Time' is one of my favourite bis of music. Also 'She Sells Sanctuary' by The Cult. | ||

I might add the intro to Johnny Winter's "Guess I'll Go Away" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26Pym4EkyFc And Ten Years After, "I'm Goin' Home" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bW5M5xljdCI and about forty other tunes ("Hot for Teacher" anyone?) | ||

Joined: December 2004 Posts: 2150 Location: Orlando, FL | Actually, after thinking about it a bit, I don't think I could narrow it down to 30... The 70's Rolling Stones, with all those great sidemen backing them up, came through with some gems - Gimmee Shelter, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Monkey Man, Can't You Hear Me Knocking. | ||

Joined: August 2005 Posts: 616 Location: cincinnati, ohio | Is that the song Jackson Browne covered? I love Jackson's version; haven't heard Danny O' Keefe's. Always liked his "Goodtime Charlie's Got the Blues." | ||

Joined: December 2004 Posts: 566 Location: Denmark | Most of them are "just" starting with a genius (guitar theme) Pink Floyd Wish You were here absolutely belong on such a list. Just as I would say Berry's "Johnny B. Goode" does, and maybe Steely Dan's "Hey Nineteen" Steppenwolf has quite a few good starts - e.g. Gang War Blues and Straight Shootin Woman Edited by tpa 2013-09-30 2:52 PM | ||
