Opening album tracks

[Jimishorts]

Greatest opening to an album ever in my opinion

Got me thinking whats your favourite opening track from an album.

I always liked "Breaking into Heaven"
The Stone Roses "Second Coming"

and the "XX" "Intro"

Whats your thoughts?

Suspect Device; the first track on Inflammable Material

 

[ilikecheese]

Listening to Smashing Pumpkins tonight...mostly as a Jimmy Chamberlain appreciation exercise. Cherub Rock was a helluva tune to kick off Siamese Dream.

 

[Jimishorts]

Great shout

 

[Huyton Layne]
