All The Young Dudes - Mott The Hoople - perfect build up to a class vocal - the coda's not too shabby neither.


Sweet Jane - The Velvet Underground - the guitar fiddling then the loping crunch of the opening chords - Mott The Hoople's version's not too shabby neither.


Layla - Derek & The Domonos - 39 notes takes you into a heart rending vocal, someone mentioned Bell Bottomed Blues earlier, that was the B-side of the single and was utterly perfect.


Once Bitten Twice Shy - Ian Hunter - the single opened with a wide-mouthed 'Allo' followed by a lazy Chuck Berryish guitar intro - then there's the introduction to the song by Hunter, the guitar riff soothing you along - then - drum roll - THEN - Mick Ronson smashes in with that thing he used to do with his guitar and it takes off and up and it don't stop until it ain't got nowhere else to go. Casual genius.

Keith Richards is the absolute king of the intro. Check for the Rolling Stones' Jumping Jack Flash the way the opening chords draw you into the song straight away. Pure genius. Then there's Brown Sugar, Get Off My Cloud, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Bitch, Satisfaction etc etc. I could list more but we'd be here all day.

    • You keep insisting that you're "just stating facts", but so far, most of what you've shared isn't fact - it's just your personal opinion, framed with hostility.  Foxes aren't classified as "vermin" in the UK. They're wild animals protected under the Animal Welfare Act & the Wildlife & Countryside Act . & Yes, they do play a vital role in controlling rodent population. The more you double down on insults & misinformation, the more you discredit your own argument. It's possible to be fed up & still informed. Take the information provided to you & do something about it. BTW culling doesn't even work.
    • It’s hardly likely you know that for a fact Sue
    • I know an instance where the foxes quickly learned how to avoid such devices. 
    • I did read the comments above It's not moaning, it's stating facts. Tell you what,  you can come and clear up the near daily fox crap and see how you like dealing with it, no didn't think that would appeal to you.  Do they control rodents?  Foxes are vermin.  It's an emotive topic for some, I realise that, however the facts are foxes are a pest.
