Starbreaker Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Hi all! It occured to me the other day that while all of us love rock music, there has not been a thread for us to share our tastes in one of the fundamental structures of Rock -- the riff. So share some of your favorite guitar and bass riffs with rest of the forum. Just tell list the song, and what part of the song the riff in question is played (and preferably add a video or something). And you don't have to cram all of your favorite riffs into one comment. If you unearth an old favorite, or discover something new that you had never heard before but that really rocked, by all means make another post! Here are a few of my favorites. from 0:00 to 1:00 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwKRyizwEKo from 0:30 to 0:50 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylxNLeUu7f8 0:00 to 0:18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starbreaker Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 How could I forget this one? Listen from 0:17 to 0:30 and hear what many people would argue is the greatest riff in the entire history of Heavy Metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ady Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 0:00 - 0:10, Lemmy's pounding bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbreaker Posted January 1, 2010 Author Share Posted January 1, 2010 There isn't really a video with good audio on Youtube for this, but Jonesey's entire part from 3:00 to 3:37 in the middle of Dazed and Confused (in particular, I love the riff from 3:00 to 3:08) is just plain awesome.
