INTRODUCTION
Often called the era of excess, the seventies were certainly an era of excessive change.
On the heels of the tumultuous sixties, myriad forms of rock sprang up, seemingly
overnight, and became codified. The rock family tree sprouted several new branches
including such divergent idioms as heavy metal, funk rock, jazz/rock fusion, power pop,
and progressive rock. Throughout it all, the riff reigned supreme. This volume is dedicated
to seventeen of the period's greatest riffmasters-the pioneers and innovators who
made the music and gave us the riffs that will live forever in the annals of rock and roll.

YOU REALLY GOT ME
Words and Music by Ray Davies
Figure 15-lntro and verse
We tend not to think of Van Halen as a "seventies band" because their work in the
next two decades came to be so historically important, musically innovative, and sweepingly
influential, but it's a fact. The self-titled debut record, released in 1978, was a barometer
indicating a change of climate in the future. Just as Jimi Hendrix had done eleven
years earlier, Van Halen defined a new direction and style for the coming age in tunes like
"Runnin' with the Devil," "I'm the One," "Eruption," and "You Really Got Me." Apparently the
public agreed and responded-"You Really Got Me" made it to the Top 40 and became
Van Halen's first hit single. The band already had been rearranging cover tunes for years
in their early gigging days around Hollywood, transforming them and making them their
own. "You Really Got Me" is a perfect example of how they did it-in Ed's words, "a hot
tune we turned into a jet airplane" -and a perfect vehicle for the maiden voyage of the
power quartet in the waning years of the seventies.
Screaming into the space after the close of "Eruption," the crushing intro riff in "You
Really Got Me" hits you squarely in the face like a left jab. Ed Van Halen converted the
Kinks' shifting barre-chord figure into a harder, more streamlined, very Van Halenesque
open-chord riff in the intro and verses. Deceptively simple, it is founded on a single AS
power chord with an added low G on the sixth string. Many of Ed's "neat noises" abound
in the figure as fills and extra texture, including muffled, percussive chord strums, pick
slides, pinch harmonics, and snarling low bends on the sixth string. The basic rhythmic
pattern and chordal idea are moved to different harmonic levels in the verses. Here, barre
chord and movable power chord versions of the main riff are found as the progression
moves to Band E tonal centers. Check out the intriguing and subtle variations Ed throws
into the figures along the way in the form of licks, fills, and varied interpretations of the
song's thematic motif. His licks and fills have endured in their own right as essential and
invaluable riffs, and have become embedded in the very core of contemporary rock guitar lore.
 

IRON MAN
Words and Music by Frank lommi, John Osbourne, William Ward, and Terence Butler
Figure 4-lntro, verse, chorus, and interlude
1971 was a watershed year for metal. While Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin were building a stairway to heaven, a Birmingham blues band asked the unthinkable question: Is there life after Zep? Arriving with thundering riffs, sinister occult themes, and dark gothic trappings, the answer came in the form of Black Sabbath. Sabbath is generally acknowledged as the first official heavy metal band-setting undeniable precedents for the late-seventies metal renaissance ("The New Wave of British Heavy Metal"), as well as the thrash/speed metal school of the eighties, and the grunge/metal of the ninetiesa fact underscored by the numerous bands that cite Sabbath as influential-Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Metallica, Pantera, and Soundgarden, among many others. "Iron Man," from the landmark Paranoid album, is one of the heaviest and best riff-based songs of their definitive early period.
"Iron Man" abounds with numerous riffs-each with a purpose, each well-placed in the arrangement. The main "Iron Man" theme is one of metal's most memorable riffs and is heard throughout the song. It appears in the intro as a rhythm figure made of parallel two-note power chords in B minor, spelling out the B natural minor scale (B-C#- D-E-F#-G-A). In the verses, a single-note version of this riff, derived from the roots of the power chords, is used. Between the first and second verses, a second single-note riff in B minor is found as both a connection and a transition. This figure employs chromatic notes in its ascending melody (meas. 23). In the interlude, a different riff is played against a double-time feel (which sets up the guitar solo). This riff is a single-note line which modulates up to C# minor, and uses notes of the C# blues scale (C#-E-F#-G-G#-B) which comes off like a deft manipulation of Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love" theme. Notice the tough accenting, staccato attack, and syncopation in the phrase which give it plenty of rhythmic character and push forcefully toward Tony's solo.

IT's ONLY NATURAL THAT INSTRUMENTALS WERE HITS AT THE DAWN OF ROCK HISTORY. ROCK WASALWAYS DANCE MUSIC, AND THE MUSICAL STYLES IT DREW UPON - BLUES, R&B, COUNTRY AND SWING - HAD STRONG BEATS AND ENGENDERED DANCEABLE INSTRUMENTALS THEMSELVES. BECAUSE ROCK IS ECLECTIC, MANY INSTRUMENTS CAN TAKE THEIR PLACE IN THE SPOTLIGHT. SAXOPHONE PLAYERS - THOSE HEROES OF JAZZ AND SWING - WERE THE STARS OF MANY EARLY ROCK INSTRUMENTALS ("RAUNCHY" AND "TEQUILA," FOR EXAMPLE). ORGANISTS AND DRUMMERS WERE LEADERS OF SOME COMBOS (IN "RED RIVER ROCK" AND "TOPSY II"). HOWEVER, GUITAR PLAYERS WERE IMPORTANT SOLOISTS IN COUNTRY, BLUES AND R&B, SO IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG FOR ROCK TO CREATE A NEW POP HERO, THE ELECTRIC GUITAR PLAYER.

INTO ROCK CAME GUITAR HEROES FROM AN R&B BACKGROUND, LIKE CHUCK BERRY AND BoDIDDLEY, COUNTRY-INFLUENCED STARS LIKE CARL PERKINS AND DUANE EDDY, AND MAVERICKS WHO BRIDGED THE GAPS BETWEEN STYLES, LIKE LONNIE MACK. THEN AT THE BEGINNING OF THE'60s THERE WAS THE VENTURES, A GUITAR INSTRUMENTAL BAND THAT SPAWNED COUNTLESS GUITAR/BAR BANDS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. A FEW YEARS LATER, DICK DALE, THE BEACH BOYS AND OTHER SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GROUPS TURNED THE WHOLE COUNTRY ON TO SURF MUSIC, WHICH, INSTRUMENTALLY, WAS JUST LIKE THE VENTURES: A COMBINATION OF POP INFLUENCES WITH GUITAR IN THE FOREFRONT AND POUNDING DRUMS BEHIND.

SOME OF THE EARLY ROCK INSTRUMENTALS WERE RECORDED BY GROUPS WHO WERE THROWNTOGETHER BY A STUDIO PRO OR PRODUCER ("TEQUILA" AND "RAUNCHY" WERE TWO EXAMPLES). OTHERS WERE THE PRODUCT OF TEEN HIGH SCHOOL BANDS LIKE THE CHANTAYS OR JOHNNY AND THE HURRICANES. OTHERS CAME FROM POWERHOUSE INNOVATORS LIKE DUANE EDDY AND LONNIE MACK WHOSE PLAYING WOULD INSPIRE FUTURE GENERATIONS OF GUITARISTS. TOGETHER, THEY ESTABLISHED A ROCK TRADITION, AND THEIR ROCK INSTRUMENTALS STILL APPEAR ON THE CHARTS OVER THREE DECADES LATER.

IT's INTERESTING THAT MANY OF THE CLASSIC INSTRUMENTALS IN THIS COLLECTION CAME NOT FROM HOLLYWOOD OR NEW YORK CITY, BUT FROM TOLEDO, CINCINNATI AND SEATILE ... AND ANYWHERE FOLKS DANCED TO ROCK AND ROLL IN BARS! MANY CLASSIC HITS ("TEQUILA," "WIPE OUT," "HIDEAWAY") WERE THROWAWAYS, B-SIDES RECORDED HASTILY IN ONE OR TWO TAKES, AS BIG A SURPRISE TO THE RECORDING ARTIST AS THEY WERE TO THE PUBLIC-WHICH ONLY PROVES THAT THE PUBLIC LIKES A SIMPLE, UNPRETENTIOUS GROOVE TUNE!

I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS COLLECTION OF CLASSIC ROCK INSTRUMENTALS. THE TRADITION OF ROCK INSTRUMENTALS IS ALIVE AND WELL, AND INCLUDES A WIDE RANGE OF GUITAR STYLES, AS THIS BOOK PROVES. IT ALSO INCLUDES ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE FOR YOU ROCK GUITAR ADDICTS: YOUR MUSICAL EDUCATION IS FAR FROM COMPLETE IF YOU CAN'T PLAY "WIPE OUT," "REBEL 'ROUSER," "WALK DON'T RUN" OR "PIPELINE!"
