I love the middle section of "The House, The Street, the Room" - Gary Green really goes wild there and the riff is Deep Purple-worthy.
Another great riff IMO is the clavinet riff that anchors "Free Hand". Choppy, intricate, yet funky fresh. Yes, I said it. |

the middle riff here is also killer

In A Glass House's heavy riff, and, of course, the heavy riff for I Lost My Head.

The opening riff from Giant is pretty amazing, but so is the interplay between the 3/4 and the 7/4 in Just the Same.

Always loved the weird, quirky "Riff" in "Proclamation"

Too many to choose from, mais j'adore the heavy guitar riff on the middle part of Pantagruel's Nativity.

The main riff of Knots is fantastic on some live versions I've seen, so juicy and epic, which is where I saw it first. It's a shame the album version barely touches it.

The set of riffs from Prologue. Complex and ominous, yet somehow catchy.

Two riffs! one is Edge Of Twilight's middle part riff with the organ, simply beautiful, and the other is Proclamation's second riff the fast one with the organ, great band!
