LED ZEPPELIN‘s red-hot smoking stunner WHOLE LOTTA LOVE
(from their 1969 Led Zep II album) was voted the greatest guitar
riff ever in rock history in 2014 by listeners of BBC Radio in the UK.
The riff topped a list of 100 classic ones.
Definitely, maybe the best ever in my book.
No 2: Sweet Child O’ Mine by Guns ‘N’ Roses
No 3: Back In Black by AC/DC
The winner…

Voodoo Child (Slight Return) was a mammoth masterstroke. Incomparable,
volcanic and demonic. The song closed the Jimi Hendrix Experience‘s final
(a double one) album ‘Electric Ladyland‘, released in 1970.
Do it once again, Jimi…
