Apols if it's been posted already, but I've been away for a few pages. Anyway, posted this on the Goth thread and there is overlap. Edit: and double the bass!

Its not really an intro in the sense that the song is way to simple to have such frivolity but this played very very loud is a belter if a song.

Bomb track, Little Green Bag and Get the Funk Out (guilty pleasure, memories of youth) all came to mind.

Donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve seen anybody post this. Not sure Iโ€™m bothered if itโ€™s too obvious... ๐Ÿ˜‰

Seven Nation Army. Too hungover to get the link to embed.

I'm not 100% sure this qualifies (starts with guitar before the bass kicks in and the intro is short) but it's what popped into my head:

Not crawling through 6 pages, but if no-one's mentioned Rancid yet, shame on you all (and if theyhave, good call).

This whole album is full of amazing bass lines but this is the track where it kicks in first

So heavy without just being metal, savage raspy tone and never losing the swaggering groove. It's my favourite RATM album.

Pretty sure nobodyโ€™s posted this yet, possibly one of my favourite Floyd pieces.

And Chris Squire, an astonishing bass player, I always find myself listening to his bass playing in particular whenever I play any Yes stuff.

How it started...

Same riff on bass and guitar. Counts.

Must've been posted before, possibly by me as part of the tiny desk set. Superb bass into, virtuoso middle break and jaw dropper outro all put in the shade of that groove...

A slightly sidewise entry, but up there with my favourite intro's of all time.
