the beginning 2 Kiss Detroit Rock City that you don't hear on the recordings now is the sound of the restaurant the silverware on the plates people versing in the background the guy walking out of the restaurant the sound of him starting his car before the song starts that was pretty good
Love that opening.

Welcome to the Jungle, especially because it is the first song on their debut album.

In the Evening

Battery

Hellion/Electric Eye

Roger Glover called this one "pure madness"

Not 100% on topic, but, does anyone remember the Travis Pastrana segment (I think it was TP) in what I feel like was Ocotillio to "All I Want" by Offspring?

Been trying to find that clip forever... not the song... but the actual riding part.

I saw Joe Walsh open up for Tom Petty last year. It was my first time seeing him live.

He absolutely blew my mind. I couldn't believe how good his guitar tone was.

And the stuff he's capable of playing.... out of this world.

I swear, my heart rate jumps about 20 beats every time I hear this, and has since it was released over 30 years ago.

The really mind blowing thing about Joe Walsh is that he was a raging alcoholic when he wrote a lot of those songs. To be falling down drunk and still play like that definitely shows the talent he has.

Not a rock band...but a punk / crossover band.
I always liked this intro... Intro is about 2:30 long...

I wish there was some way that MetallicA would play with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra again. It was so bad ass. I loved no leaf clover and their intro for fuel was awesome. We used to do the same thing when we would play it in our cover band. These are my favorite three intros

I lean towards Pink Floyd when it comes to this one. I consider "Happiest Days of Our Lives" to be an intro, and probably my favorite. The intro to "Wish You Were Here" is also iconic. "Have a Cigar" is great too.

So Damn many good ones hard to pick. But I dare you to look up and watch AC/DC, Let There Be Rock (official video) and not smile. Just honest Rock that your parents hated.
