Favorite song intros'

shade · 04-26-2013, 03:13 PM

Was cutting the grass with the headphones on and Fortunate Son by CCR came on. Love that guitar intro! Got me to thinking about some other favorites...

Allman Brothers Berry Oakley's bass intro on Whipping Post
Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground - intro to the Live version of Sweet Jane
ACDC - Back in Black maybe the best
Derrick & the Dominos - Duane Allman's slide guitar on Layla

many more.....

Thunderstruck! I'm biased though

You're both baked. It's If You Want Blood (you've got it) followed closely by Highway to Hell.

If you guys were old farts like me, there would only be one choice, Hotel California.

icehog3 · 04-26-2013, 03:49 PM

Green Grass & High Tides - The Outlaws
Can't You Hear Me Knockin' - Rolling Stones
Brown Sugar - Rolling Stones
Unchained - Van Halen
Panama - Van Halen
Down Payment Blues - AC/DC
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Up Around the Bend

If I sat here 5 more minutes I could think of 100 more. I'll add some as they come to mind.

Favorite? Too many good ones to name, but one all but the oldest (and craziest) of us old farts would forget is:

Fire - Arthur Brown.

Now THAT was the way to kick off a tune!

Eagles - Hell Freezes Over - Hotel California.

I AM an old fart like you! Just a clarification, Carlos.....

Original version, or unplugged acoustical version? I can go with either!

I love how different they are. One's slower and more calm. CfH is just sick ****ing music

BHalbrooks · 04-26-2013, 08:07 PM

Also:

All that Remains - 2 Weeks
Chevelle - The Red
Disturbed - Down with the Sickness
Dropkicks - Memorial Day
Korn - Coming Undone
Motley - Kickstart my Heart
Mudvayne - Fall into Sleep
Slipknot - Before I forget
S.O.A.D. - Chop Suey
S.O.A.D. - B.Y.O.B.

Newer Music for the most part, compared to what's already been said. And a lot heavier too, which doesn't discredit already listed music.
