[Steve-French]

Oh man... There is a ton, and while these aren't necessarily my favorites these are few that I like that come to mind right now.

Pantera, Cowboys from Hell

Dick Dale, Miserlou

Metallica Seek and Destroy.

Not really a fan of this band, but Nuno Bettoncort is in awesome guitar player and I've always loved the intro to this Extreme song. I know It's a Flight of the Bumble Bee cover ,but it makes for a kick as intro...
