Riff top 100

[b-dolo]

Wasn't money for nothing guitar riff written by or at least heavily influenced by ZZ Top. I'm sure I read that somewhere.

It was on Wiki.

Knopfler modeled his guitar sound on ZZ Top guitarist Billy Gibbons' trademark guitar tone, as ZZ Top's music videos were already a staple of early MTV. Gibbons told Timothy White of Musician in late 1985 that Knopfler had solicited Gibbons' help in replicating the tone, adding, "He didn't do a half-bad job, either, considering that I never told him a goddamned thing!"

Hound's post has got me thinking about the most famous blues riffs.
