Dumb question...Do instrumentals count? If so then Mr Scary had a great opening hook

 

 

Hell yes they count and here's another one that needs to be played at maximum volume.

I have always believed that this intro to "Streets Have no Name" from U2 at Sun Devil stadium is what truly propelled them to the status of world-super power rock group... they played "Bad" before it and the Bad-to-Streets combo is a surreal moment when seen live.

How about the Windup for Locomotive Breath, from the band Jethro Tull???

 

 

 

 

Song is much better, but still worth a mention in this thread. I know there are a lot of Ian Anderson fans here. :overhead:

All quite good!! :headbanger:

I'd argue Dr. Feelgood's intro is better than the rest of the song.
