Sultans of Swing

Paperback Writer - Beatles

I just couldn’t vote for Smoke on the Water. Every time I hear the song I think of the Homer Simpson version, not the original. It’s not Deep Purple’s fault. I voted for Layla, Heartbreaker, Purple Haze, and You Really Got Me. Nothing against Day Tripper either but it’s not at the top of my Beatles riff heap. I think that honor has to go to Come Together (if we can count basslines) and Hey Bulldog.

Sweet Child O Mine. Love this riff even though Axel was a flawed guy he just rocks me into next week.

Wow, this is really close:

Layla: 43
You Really Got Me: 42
Smoke on the Water: 42
Satisfaction: 41

After that, a big drop to 33 (Day Tripper)
