Song intros that really grab you? ?


There are quite a few of these but two of my favorites are Garth Hudson's killer organ on "Chest Fever"by The Band and the intro to "Layla" by Derek And The Dominos. What are some of your favorites??

Theme from "Shaft" - Isaac Hayes: it's a bad mutha

"Bad, Bad, Leroy Brown" - Jim Croce: finger poppin' and head bobbin'

"Pursuance", 3rd movement of "A Love Supreme" - John Coltrane, with Elvin Jones on drums: you are exhausted by the time the horn begins
Perhaps the most recognizable intro is the opening chord played by George Harrison's 12 string Rickenbacker on "A Hard's Day's Night". For years controversy has existed over the actual chord whether it is Gm7add11, Gsus4, or G7sus4. It makes me smile every time I hear it.
