Default If you could have written one riff, which one would it be?

The one riff I would like to lay claim too is "Smoke on the Water." It's not the greatest, but I'm sure it brings in the royalities.

Otherwise for sheer creativeness, I would pick Crazy Train

Haha ^^

Jimmy Page probably wishes he actually wrote that riff to.

Anyway, I choose "Sweet Jane." It's simple and catchy just like what a good riff should be like. For me, it's the quintessential rock and roll riff.
