Does Close to the Edge have the greatest intro to a rock song ever?

Yes! At last someone said it!

Definitely the best 'breakdown' ever

The intro to Elephant Talk by King Crimson is better IMO

>>68744941

Yes.

In fact I listened to Siberian Khatru today

The pinnacle of rock music was the progressive rock of the 1970's. Even though some parts of it are dated and cheesy, no rock movement afterwards came close to the masterful musicianship of the era.

>not the sudden transition from Moonchild into The Court of the Crimson King
Shit taste.

Honestly I like that Wakemans keyboard intro to "Awaken" slightly better.

>>68747896
>yfw Moraz wrote most of Awaken

I agree. Actually even the 80s had lots of great rock music, definitely underrated. What the fuck happened to rock music, why did it die? I guess all genres die eventually but Rock especially no one is innovating, actually trying to push the boundaries of anything. why are """progressive rock""" bands in 2016 still doing cringey shit like using melotrons. I mean IT'S 2016 COMON

Either the opening to Thick as a Brick, or the opening to "Gates of Delirium"

What about Relayer?

>>68748596
It's great, but it doesn't beat out Close to the edge.

>>68748672
Actually it does

>>68748678
Yeah but it doesn't.

Fuck off Moraz

>>68747237

Those first 10 seconds are fucking sublime

Also, if we're talking King Crimson, the intro to In the Wake of Poseidon

>>68748729

No. That is Amon Duul II's Burning Sister.

The greatest rock intro song of all time. (Of all time.)
