    Layla - Derek & the Dominos!

    Often wrongly credited to old Slowhand himself but it was really played by Duane Allman

    A couple of memorable ones from Magazine/John McGeoch: The Light Pours Out of Me, and Rhythm of Cruelty.

    This is probably cheating a bit, but Chris Spedding's Guitar Jamboree has a few...

    In a Hollow Horse - The Icicle Works, played by Ian McNabb. (Massively underrated in my opinion).
    And strange but true, given all the mentions of the Allman brothers, my sister in-law was married to one the band for quite a while.

    Love those pinch harmonics in the outro solo. Billy Gibbons is so good at those.

    Likewise. Talking of great 'riffs', albeit on the harmonica, Canned Heat's On the Road Again would get my vote.

    Yes, that's terrific. It's such a vocal harp sound. When you hear Al Wilson's voice come in you can hear why the harp sounds as it does.

    So do I but the skill of the harmonica playing gets you through it. But if it's not for you OK.
