Winger had a lot of hits but the riff to Time to Surrender is actually a favorite of mine too!

Both good choices! Think I’ll go with D2’s “Naughty Naughty” for my underrated riff pick:

Shooting You Down from Faster Pussycat's debut has been spinning lately.. that chorus part rules.

Mick's playing on anything from Girls Girls Girls and a bunch from Theatre Of Pain is stellar.. in my opinion, anyway...

Summer Nights from 5150 needs a mention... that's a tasty opening guitar part

Gypsy Road is great.. even if they DID lift it from EZN. Lots of Cinderella riffs are choice..

Wasted Years from Stranger In A Strange Land .. probably my favorite Maiden album.

I could go on for a long time

Sultans of Swing

Dire Straits is a song I've challenged all my jam band guitar players over the years and not one of them took it on... complacency is to blame for sure...
Any of you guys play that tune with your buddies??? Its not easy for any guy.. but it would be so good to have it down live in the corner bar
