    Out of the options in the poll...The Trooper.

    Trooper is my favorite on that list, but Money for Nothing is a pretty iconic riff and ends up as a second.

    From the list, Layla: otherwise, Day Tripper
    No Springsteen? Huh. Surely there's some Kinks? Santana? Pink Floyd? I get it: less classic, more modern. Like The Arcade Fire or Ryan Adams?

    Smoke On The Water first, then Iron Man for me. It was the only riffs I could play at 13 years old
    RB1 + RB2 + RB3 + AC/DC + LRB + GDRB + 600+ DLC = Great fun

    Last buy: Megadeth 3-pack
    GT: matwill

    ben oui je parle français !

    Is this "greatest" or "easiest to play on 1 string"?

    In any case, the answer is actually "Outshined" by Soundgarden.
    Does anyone chart anymore? le sigh.
