Best song intro

[OB1]

Feeling guilty about not being at Wembley tonight got me digging out a few old tunes, where I re-discovered what must be amongst the best song intros ever (although this was does last virtually half the track time to be fair)

Any other suggestions for best intro, conventional or otherwise?

yes me too at least i got to see him do this at the etihad last year fantastic! although pissed wet

Don't wish to make you feel worse but he was better at Wembley last night than at the Etihad. Played Darkness on the Edge of Town from start to finish (i.e. the album); I understand that the San Siro got the whole of Born in the USA.

Good shout.

For a pure viseceral in your face punch, I like "Rock n Roll" by Led Zep and for a bit of a build up "in the Evening" by the same band.

I'm' sure this thread has been done before and I had a whole lsit of intros that I like. I do like a song with a good intro.

Genesis - Behind The Lines (especially live) used loads in the 80's on tv programmes
Status Quo - Whatever you Want (the full version, that HARDLY EVER gets played)
Rush - Xanadu (who cares if it's a 5 min intro)
Joan Armatrading - Love and Affection (it doesn't have to be loud, to be good)


and, essential headphone listening, in the dark

The Doors - Riders On The Storm
Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter
