- Doc - 03-22-2002 I saw this article on the top ten greatest riffs of all time and like all lists like this, it could probably stand to have a little editing done. Here's what they said were the best of all time: 1 - Iron Man Black Sabbath 2 - Smoke on the Water Deep Purple 3 - Purple Haze Jimi Hendrix 4 - Whole Lotta Love Led Zeppelin 5 - (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction The Rolling Stones 6 - Sunshine of Your Love Cream 7 - Walk This Way Aerosmith 8 - Smells Like Teen Spirit Nirvana 9 - Back in Black AC/DC 10 - Crazy Train Ozzy Osbourne I think "For Whom the Bell Tolls" should be somewhere in there, and I definitly think "All Night Long" is a better riff than "Back in Black" - Maynard - 03-22-2002 What about Zep - Immigrant Song - BeckyDC - 03-22-2002 Sabbath Bloody Sabbath - Black Sabbath - Arpikarhu - 03-22-2002 pinball wizard - LZMF1 - 03-22-2002 (she sells) sanctuary------> the cult when nissan put that song in their commercial for the frontier i literally ran out and bought one. - Sloatsburgh - 03-22-2002 Sister Christian - Night Ranger. I couldn't top Becky, except the Godspeed with Bruce Dickenson is better. One of the few covers that are better than a really good original. - Maynard - 03-22-2002 How about Wasted Years by Iron Maiden? The beginning guitar riffs get me, and his voice rocks on that song! And Dont Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult Ohhh, Black Betty - Ram Jam - Spitfire - 03-22-2002 Quote:8 - Smells Like Teen SpiritThey stole that from Blue Oyster Cult...in fact, isn't A Whole Lotta Love stolen from an old blues riff? Where'd you see the article? add Motorhead - Ace of Spades - Maynard - 03-22-2002 Blister in the sun - Violent Femmes Closer - Nine Inch Nails Theres alot of other great songs out there with really catchy riffs too. Unsung - Helmet Revolve - Melvins Feel Good Hit Of The Summer - Queens Of The Stone Age - Sloatsburgh - 03-22-2002 OK, I'll be serious One - Metalicca Hey Ernie - Cold Sweat Overkill - Lazlo Bane (Cover) Trooper - Iron Maiden (Still like Wasted Years better) Afraid to Shoot Strangers - Iron Maiden Planet Caravan - Black Sabbath and finally: Hellhounds on my tail - Robert Johnson - Doc - 03-22-2002 I think it was on msn.com or something. damn, now that I'm thinking about it, there are just an assload of really good ones - BeckyDC - 03-22-2002 Quote:add Motorhead - Ace of Spadesany Motorhead I think..I love Lemmy - The Sleeper - 03-22-2002 Hallowed be thy Name - Maiden (most Maiden has awesome riffs) Ziggy Stardust - Bowie Great Punk riff: Holiday in Cambodia - Dead Kennedys - Lord Magus - 03-22-2002 Quote:Motorhead - Ace of Spades Quote:Ziggy Stardust - Bowie NICE!!
