Default Re: Best instrumental parts to songs?

How about some love for the synthesizer in Jump? Let's hear it from the Van Halen fans. If you're not into synthesizers, there's a pretty cool part in Right Now. I'm thinking it's a piano.

If you like pianos, I think every Bruce Hornsby song I've heard has some cool instrumental parts.

The intro to Gimme Shelter, by The Rolling Stones

Agreed, this is awesome. It really added a lot to The Departed, in my opinion.

Yeah, that song is awesome. I've seen them in concert twice, and the intro to that song has always amazed me. I have no idea how somebody could play that. If you can listen to that intro and not get jacked, you might not be human.

The more of these I read make me realize that I usually favor the intro of songs over the solos near the end.

Somebody said One, which is a great intro. Another one by Metallica is Fade to Black. Also, Hero of the Day.

I identify songs a lot more by the way they begin than by their signature solos in the middle or near the end.

lol, so far you've been amazed at the difficulty of the intro to Sweet Child O' Mine, and Thunderstruck. Both of these are easy to play. I can play both and I can't play sh*t on guitar. They sound difficult but are not.

Then there's sstuff that sounds easy to play and you go to look at the tab and it's like "Yeah, I don't have 8 fingers...not playing that one." [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
