Beginning of The Stones “Can’t You Here Me Taking” best riff EVER!

It's Can't You Hear Me Knocking" but I agree. The beginning is great, but... the ride (about 2 minutes in but lasts for the rest of the song) is the absolute best break ever recorded. Congas, sax, Keith's lead, and don't forget Charlie. Most of the riffs on the video were just warmed over, derivative and generic metal riffs. Yawn.

Trower and T.Rex.

Unforgivable omissions.

We should vote down the list compiler with extreme prejudice.

Honestly I like Brian better. RIP Bon.

“It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock ‘n’ Roll).” was his best.

OMG did I just misquote the title of my favorite riff?

Shame on me. Good catch.
