Open question to Lounge. What is the most iconic rock & roll guitar riff?
Va AandM • 12/31/25 07:33 AM ET
Hendrix's version of All Along the Watch Tower**

There can't be just one. Some that are often overlooked:

I'd also add several more off the top of my head:

I started by saying Chuck Berry was iconic. BOC Cities on Flame…

Jack White/White Stripes Seven Nation Army is my favorite**

First one that came to mind, American Woman. Too many to choose.**

Iconic, not sure, but I love the opening of Victim of Love by the Eagles**

Yeah, Layla for me, was backpacking once with the most enormous ear worm

Stones - (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction has to be considered I would think.
