I think Wire's 'Map Ref 41°N 93°W' is kinda shoegazey, it certainly has some cool trippy guitar effects. MBV covered it as well.
Sonic Youth's 'Beauty Lies in the Eye' as well, I think that's quite shoegazey. They're not often thought of as shoegaze but they're definitely an influence on the genre. This song below was released in 1987 (i think it was).
YouTube - Sonic Youth - Beauty Lies In The Eye
older bands like The Byrds and the 13th Floor Elevators have some stuff that's quite reminiscent as well.
