Hard rock music has some of the best riffs ever invented. WatchMojo lists the ten best guitar riffs from hard rock,
List Entries and Rank:
#10. “Walk This Way” by Aerosmith
#9. “Rock You Like a Hurricane” by Scorpions
#8. “Photograph” by Def Leppard

#6. “Smoke on the Water” by Deep Purple

#4. “Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Love” by Van Halen
#3. ?
Once again AC/DC is lower than it should be
Back in black number 5 what the fuck
Agreed with the list but Kashmir has a way better riff than Whole Lotta Love
Do you even "hard rock" WatchMojo? What kind of list is this!
1.acdc back in Black
2.acdc whole Lotta Rosie
3.acdc thunderstruck
4.acdc Hells Bells
5.acdc for those about to Rock
Why do they exclude instrumentals???
I think the title should be changed to "Top 10 riffs most guitarist know"
Or "10 Riffs guitarist can learn a a day"
WhachMojo, in rock or metal, it's not called a guitar Instrumental it's a guitar solo
what happened to Lenny Kravitz?!
God I love whitesnake, still of the night is one of my top 10 songs of all time
The most iconic Hendrix is the acoustic lead in to All Along The Watchtower.
And I'd have to put Ozzie's Flying High or Crazy Train in the top five. That is real hard rock.
Have u noticed that they repeat everything that they say in previous videos about Guns n roses
No Kashmir? Really??
I'd rather put 'Slip of the tongue' by Whitesnake on the list.
Come on smoke on the water should be #1!!!! Even Hendrix couldn't play it >:(
What? No honorable mentions?
No paranoid by sabbath?
I read this title as Top 10 Hard…. Rock guitar riffs… I was watching this going.. those aren't that hard to play…
I agree with the top 3 but where the hell are motorhead?…
why is jimi hendrix always nuber 1? GNR and ACDC should have the top spot
Sweet Child of Mine and Eruption are not even fucking riffs.
No Sunshine of Your Love, what the fuck is wrong with you people, god damn hipsters.
Riffs?

I love AcDc, but I don't understand how the hell they can put back and black above thunderstruck
Yeah!! Finally respect for voodoo child! It is truly the best guitar I have ever heard in a song. Thanks watch mojo for actually getting something right for once.
Instead of Smoke on the water I'd put Burn or Kill The King riffs and I'd put them higher (like 4th or 3rd). The same guitarist (Blackmore), better riffs for me.
Kill yourself.
Whitesnake are heavy metal but they're good so ok
I feel like this whole list can be done with only 1 man …..Jimmy Page
omfg what a sucky list, watchmojo is sooo bad..
Boom ! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMl0Opjy-IavzEgSsLx06Ww
HAHA WHAT GAME IS THIS
just starting to watch counting on ACDC being in there
WatchMojo.com needs to keep Hagar out of their references to the original Front Man! They keep doing it!
Also… It's OK to not put Hendrix as #1 on everything! LOL. Better players have come since… And I know I may piss a few people off here, but there were better rock guitarists then Jimi when he was alive. Hendrix was an effects junkie, with great touch. But Clapton was better then, but he peaked at Cream.
And lastly… Ain't Talking' Bout Love is the third best on this list (I'll give you that much) it is BY FAR NOT Eddie's best Riff! These are just some of the best… All better than Ain't Talking' Bout Love:
I'm The One
Atomic Punk
Somebody Get Me A Doctor
Romeo Delight
Take Your Whiskey Home
Mean Street
Unchained
Hot For Teacher
Drop Dead Legs
Judgement Day
Human's Being
She's the Woman
And on and on and on! LOL
I have always preffered Burn, but Smoke on the water is iconic
RIP Malcom 🙁
Everybody knows Smoke on the Water!
I don't want to hear you talk over all of this. "Here's a good one blah blah blah"
Let's face it,if they hadn't gone for one song per artist,this would've become top 10 led Zeppelin riffs…
Where’s dire straits- money for nothing?
7 out of 10 of these should be Van Halen
AC/DC should be number 1. Malcolm Young may he rest in peace was a riff master.
Ac/dc is rock n roll not hard rock
And sweet child o mine is not the best song from them they have loads of betters songs and eaven slash hates it
