well... in terms of best ever it'd have to be most recognizable, i'm gonna say what i think are at least most recognizable, and my faves.

most recognizable:
smoke on the water
hotel california
whole lotte love
purple haze
layla
cocaine
we will rock you (i guess you could call the beat a "riff" but the solo is sick)
la grange
free falling
are you gonna be my girl
bad to the bone
dream on
walk this way

my personal faves(not gonna repeat the most recognizable b/c they're also my faves):
glorious day
tyler
shook me all night long
everlong
babe, i'm gonna leave you
who do you love
cold hard bitch
green light girl
back in black
and if you have to ask "who are these people?" A. i'm sorry B. go look it up, and find a copy if ya can, so worth it.

"Sweet Child of Mine" by Guns and Roses has some really good guitar riffs, especially towards the end.

The Minibosses' rendition of "Big Blue" from the F-Zero games has some crazy riffing of the electric guitars.

Just because I'm curious, what makes a guitar riff so good, in you guys' opinion? FOr me, having some great drumming in the background always helps, especially with high-energy songs.
