The little "Aw..." Gram Parsons sings, almost as a tossed-off aside, at 2:28 of the alternate (fast) version of "Sing Me Back Home" by the Flying Burrito Brothers

Leon Russell's tinkling piano near the end of The Burritos' "Wild Horses"

The guitars at the end of The Rolling Stones - "It's all over Now"

Jimi Hendrix working a bit of Sinatra's "Strangers in the Night" into "Wild Thing" at Monterrey

The horn fanfare at the end of "You Set The Scene" by Love

The guitar lead-ins after each line of verse, in the Stones' "Satisfaction". Truly among the most exciting rock and roll music ever.

Hard to pick from this record, but Garth Hudson's Lowrey in the chorus of King Harvest is some of his coolest stuff.

Just the way a Stone's concert starts. Keith walks to the front of stage, looks back at Charlie and the show is on.

the entire guitar solo in "Slow Death" by the Dictators. Not so much the solos though as how the drummer handles the transition from ride to smashing his hi-hat in the middle of it all.

- Jimi's wah-wah intro and opening chords/licks to Voodoo Child.
- Merry Clayton doing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqXyjbgs5rU
- Robert Plant's voice and JP Jones' bass at the start of What Is and What Should Never Be.
- In the first and last verse of All I Ever Wanted, Santana mirrors the vocal melody, so it's like the guitar is singing along.
- Steve Howe busting out an intense guitar solo in the middle of a swishy Yes song called To Be Over.
- "frick you I won't do what you tell me..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPWYcjypSWo
- The lyric "I know you don't owe me, but I wish you would let me ask one favor from you..." I could write a whole essay on what a primal moment this is, and I would link wiki articles like this one, and I would find an appropriate Far Side cartoon to help make my point (that our behaviors are not so different from what you see in nature), possibly this one:
