Floyd (Barrett)- Lucifer Sam
Zappa-way too many to name
Gentle Giant-The second half of Peel the Paint, if you know the song, you know where I mean.
King Crimson-Fracture, the main riff in Larks' Tongue Part I, Larks Tongue Part II, Indiscipline, a lot more.
Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell?
I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance.

Yeah, that solo that comes blistering through in Peel the Paint absolutely destroys me.  The tone is some of the best I've ever heard, and it's so bluesy.

Clap Don't get much better than that. I think You Know What I Mean has an equally good riff.

But as far as riffs go
