I had some tough choices here. I love Photograph, but Barricuda is one of the Best Classic Riffs of all time. I really love Unchained, but the weight of the riff in Satisfaction is dwarfs it. Back in Black is great & I would include it in my list of Best Classic Riffs of all time, but Tom Sawyer's technically superior. It's a shame, most of favorites in the catagory are pitted against each other in round one.
I'll post my votes now, which will officially close the Classic Riffs Bracket. If my vote moves the contest into a tie, I will not count it (so technically I have the tie-breaker):
Tom Sawyer
Smoke On The Water
Jump In The Fire
Barracuda
Unchained
Long Train Running
Funk # 49
Iron Man
Here are the winners from the Classic Riffs Bracket. These songs will be moving on to Round 2:
