joelha Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 We all know there are not only albums or even certain songs we love but specifically, certain parts of songs that excite us the most. In my case, here is a small number of (in some cases very obvious) examples: The Allman Brothers - Brothers and Sisters: Jelly Jelly - 4:59 (tremendous guitar work) The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again - 7:44 (Roger Daltrey's iconic scream) Led Zeppelin - Whole Lotta Love - 3:02 (Jimmy Page's amazing guitar work) Montrose - Space Station #5 - 0:50 - (Sammy Hagar's scream) I've been thinking it would be fun to learn of similar moments in music from other followers of AudiophileStyle. The genre does not have to be rock by the way, it can be any genre. And if you don't have the time to put down the exact minute and second of your favorite part of the song, then please at least identify what part of the song you're referencing. Please volunteer what you consider to be "the very best parts" of the music you listen to. I'm anxious to discover new music through your suggestions. Joel ShawnC 1 Link to comment

I had read somewhere that Jack White considered that specific portion of the song to be one of the greatest rock guitar performances ever. Joel Link to comment

Joel I'd agree with that, great solo, short and simple and none of its live versions is IMO better. 9 hours ago, fas42 said: Starting at 4:00 ...

ShawnC Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I remember when song came out how many girls loved to rock out to the bands machine gun type sound at 4:14 -5:02. I picked this version over the actual video because of all the movie overdub footage in it.

RickyV Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Basically every time I listen to this song my brain gets blown from 2:10 and onward. Resulting in: volume up, arms in the air and heavy toe heel tapping. 😀 Excellent thread 👍 Meitner ma1 v2 dac, Sovereign preamp and power amp, DIY speakers, scan speak illuminator.
