Where would rock n roll be without the invention of the intro? Sometimes they’re long and glorious (Boston’s “Foreplay/Long Time”) others are short and to the point (“Welcome to the Jungle”). No matter the duration, intros provide bands with an epic way to enter the stage for a show or to give the lead singer a break between songs. The list below is a sampling of some epic intros with a best estimate of the intro length. There are plenty of others. Feel free to share your favorite in the comments. This intro is officially over.
