Favorite Guitar Riff/Intro/Whatever

[buxfan4life]

Seemed like every kid that was teaching themselves how to play the guitar back in the early/mid-70s learned that riff first. Still hear kids play it today, 40 years after it came out...

That is because it is a very basic and easy riff to play (since there are many ways to play it). It is also great way for beginners to learn basic power chords and simple fret changes.

The fact it is a cool is just gravy.

All around awesome/strange song, but Jan Akkerman kills it on guitar.

Some unparalleled vox riffs in that one too, of course.
