Victim of Love - The Eagles

I am surprised that this song haven't been mentioned! The great British horns and tight lyrics makes this a top ten: Nothing but a Heartache by the Flirtations..........

Nothing But A Heartache by the Flirtations is not only a great intro, but an excellent record IMO. Good choice!

Shhh....Don't you tell anybody, the whole place slippin' away! (Better get ready to tie up the boat in Idaho)

Anyone who knows what I'm talking about should seriously consider getting professional help!

+1!

Blue Suede Shoes - Carl Perkins

Just about anything Perkins did has a great intro, although many of them were very short, usually not more than two bars after a pickup note. I rate the intro to “Honey Don’t” as his best, and the long version of “Matchbox” with Duane Eddy and the Mavericks as a close second.
