I wouldn't want to have to choose between 'em--I guess you could weasel out by saying they really were two different bands.

I also like Sir Lord Baltimore and I also can't decide between Zuma and Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

OK, it's hard to argue against that one.

Not with bang, but a whimper.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

speaking of Dinosaur jr, the solo on Kraked is my second favorite so ever recorded (the first is Faust's on Meadow Meal...but that might be a synth...)

I think if you could take that back in time to the late '60s and show it to Hendrix, he'd ask, "What have I done?"

Aaaaawwwww, shit. No more expressive drummer ever beat a skin. Plus he just seemed like a really cool, if ornery, old bastard. Vaya con dios, Levon.

Black Sabbath Supernaut (HQ)

The whole of Black Sabbath's Supernaut, which is perhaps the best rock song ever recorded, but if I have to point to a specific moment, it's 3:15 where the riff roars back in after the percussion solo.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

I love this riff.  One of Iommi's finest moments.  Remember that old SNL sketch when Dan Ackroyd played the AM/FM DJ when he switching off from loud gabby morning dj coming of something like a Kiki Dee record on the AM side to the burned out 70s FM dj? "Awriiiiigh...comin' down heavy from the Dead show last night...I'm a little high right now...we got some Sabbaaaaaaaath...." then riff of Supernaut
