I think there was a thread like this years ago, but I couldn't find it, so here's a new one....

What's your favourite ever guitar riff?

So many incredible ones to choose from, many of them from rock /metal, but I'm going with a funk masterpiece:
Theme From Shaft
by
Isaac Hayes
.

This guy makes it look easy but there's all kinds of crazy pedal work going on.

I love Weird Fishes/Arpeggi by Radiohead because both Jonny and Ed start off doing the same thing, then Jonny switches to a whole other time signature and it becomes this wild, swaying, interlocking two riffs that dance around each other... even better live when he embellishes a bit like in this performance...

I hadn't heard that one, it's ridiculously catchy.

Here's my contribution for today - Layla by Derek and The Dominoes, brilliant intro.

I'd forgotten all about this! :P
The Smiths have some great riffs courtesy of Johnny Marr, this is probably my favourite:
