Stairway to Heaven What's the most cliched guitar riff (in your opinion)? "Sometimes you want to give up the guitar, you'll hate the guitar. But if you stick with it, you're gonna be rewarded."

(1) Free Bird.
(2) Sweet Child
(3) Stairway
(4) Purple Haze
(5) Smells like Teen Spirit Heaven is where the police are British, the chefs Italian, the mechanics are German, the lovers are French, and its all organized by the Swiss.
Hell is where the police are German, the chefs are British, the mechanics are French, the lovers are Swiss, and it's all organized by the Italians.

Iron man by black sabbath... maybe hendrix's stuff, if it was easier to play. "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. And from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip malls should be. Cookies on dowels. All those moment, lost in time. Gone, like eggs off a hooker's stomach. Time to die" -Phil Ken Sebben

Oh, yes, BTW..."non iligitimi carborundum", look what happened to me.

Man, I've never played wipe-out before. The others though I have...shame. Heaven is where the police are British, the chefs Italian, the mechanics are German, the lovers are French, and its all organized by the Swiss.

To the others, I'll add the riff from "Sunshine of Your Love" "In theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice, theory and practice are different."

I would argue that most of these are far to good to be chiche, however, the media have tricked us through over exposure, and seduced us into believing we wanted more.  Sorry, but you can't believe anything I say. I always lie. In fact, I'm lying now.

Like the riff from Alice Cooper's "School's Out". IIRC: E - E - B. E - E - A, E - E- B - A. It only takes one string to play... "In theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice, theory and practice are different."

Can't believe nobody said "Wild Thing"... If it's stupid, but it works, it's not stupid.

stairway to heaven
in the early 70's people were banned/fined for playing stairway in music stores on the instruments. i bet you can't find another riff that'll induce that.
