I hear "Long Cool Woman" by the Hollies tossed about when they are in the improv section.. just a riff or two.. it works and fits..

My 2 favourites are:

Intro to Go For Soda (Kim Mitchell)

Intro to Sweet Home Alabama.


They were two of my "oh my god I have to learn how to play that" riffs when I started to play the guitar many years ago.
