For me, the best has to be Jimi Hendrix All Along The Watchtower - any others?
That’s a tough act to follow. I’ll go for a change of genre - how about Strauss’s Also sprach Zarathustra
I take it this is in Streaming Audio by accident?

I’ll raise you Ian Dury’s Plaistow Patricia. Not the Tidal version, it’s been censored!

Couple of slightly more chilled intros to classics, Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird & Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here.
Possibly the most instantly recognisable intro ever, Smoke on the Water from Deep Purple.

Sorry Chris, new to site so I make mistakes!
I’ve been listening to that album (New Boots and Panties) a fair bit recently - what a breath of fresh air!
To add:
Pink Floyd , Money, or, as an intro to DSOTM album: Speak to me
Ten Years After Bad Scene (also as intro to Ssssh album.
Beatles Get Back
Rolling Stones Honky Tonk Women
Carl Orff O Fortuna opening bar as opening to Cumina Burana
There are so many contenders for best!

Good call on A Hard Day’s Night - one note, and you’re in.
Love & Happiness (Al Green), Everyday (Buddy Holly), and a million others.
