What are your favourite intros, what builds you up and builds you up and then splatters you all over the walls like a creme egg?

 

Starter for 10.........

As well a kick-ass intro, also one of the best songs ever - although I wouldn't want to be one of Zach de la Rocha's kids trying to earn pocket money.

 

At the start of the song, he says "Bring that sh!t in". Bit later on, he says "bring it back the other way". Consistency is the key to parenting, I feel :)

Some nice ones in there. Rather than building slowly, this one kicks straight in on the first three notes:

 

For intros that build, perhaps Pink Floyd 'Shine on you crazy diamond'

We listened to a lot of Floyd on a recent trip to the Lakes. I think it's something like 8 minutes before you even hear a vocal.

I think that one is about 17 minutes loooong too.

Don't understand how Derek Clapton & his Pizza haven't got a mention for Layla.

 

That's a coda!

 

 

Or do you mean the opening guitar riff?

Pretty Vacant by the Sex Pistols is the correct answer to this question. The rest of the song is OK, but the intro is the best rock intro bar none.

Love this track. Is apparently the direct influence to intro on this, also great, track:

This is another great intro, Levon's drums, followed by Rick Danko's bass, the piano and then the whole band.

 

Great start to a great Scorsese film, which is played after a few drinks every New Years eve in the Duck household.
