Well...i lied. Never realized why i love this period of the Stones so much, but it was Nicky Hopkins tying it all together:

 

[ClifSpliffy]

a most highly underrated beat. final product kicks in at 2:10.

Late night progressive FM in the 70's had some big cult favorites like this one - Brian Auger's Oblivion Express:

 

[Fairfield_1st]

I'd like to nominate Van Halen's "Jump" for worst intro. I was so excited when that song was coming out. My buddy and I rushed home to hear it on the radio. And then I heard keyboards... from Van Halen. What the duck? Any time I see the music video and Eddie is smiling and playing the keyboard I want to throat punch him. Strap on the guitar and stop the nonsense.
I refuse to post a link to the song.

Have been holding off on linking this just to see if someone else would.
Hope this doesn't get the thread exiled to the Entertainment forum.
This is the original.
