Songs with an acoustic intro

Recommended Posts

I really like these songs that have an acoustic intro such as Firehouse - Don't Treat Me Bad and Boston - Peace of Mind. Does anyone know of anymore good AOR/sleaze/glam/rock songs that have an acoustic intro that I can track down? Do other people on here really like them?

I will have to do some research. The Firehouse song is not only one of my favorite Firehouse songs, it is one of my favorites period !

How about Motherlodes song Fingerpaint? well I guess that's a harmonica intro, but still an excellent way to intro a kick ass rock song!

Madelaine by Winger

 

Awesome song!

 

Probably loads of songs that fit this category, but a couple of big favourites that spring to mind:

 

Scorpions - Coming Home

Lillian Axe - The World Stopped Turning

 

Another one I have a lot of love for is Opeth - Ghost of Perdition, but I don't think it quite qualifies as AOR/sleaze/glam/rock as the OP requested (and the acoustic intro is tiny). And then there's Testament - The Ballad... :D

  • My Little Pony

Cinderella - Bad Seamstress Blues/Fallin' Apart at the Seams (One of my favourite tracks!)

Electric Boys - All Lips N Hips (Opens with sitar)

Extreme - Little Girls (No acoustic, but harmonica)

Extreme - Smoke Signals (Another all time favourite song)

 

Let me know if any of these were what you were looking for.

    • I've got a solid top 3 at this point.  At least for me, these 3 are heads and shoulders above everything else: 1.  Kissin' Dynamite 2.  Eclipse 3.  Maverick After that, it's really a hodgepodge of stuff.  New Roses, Daughtry (Only an EP but digging it), Collateral, Sebastian Bach, Judas Priest, Nestor, End Machine.  I'd probably put them in about that order at the moment.  
    • So I was just looking at the new releases I bought from this year, and while there are some new additions to expand from the top 5 I posted earlier this year, to a top 10, all the stuff in my original list are still in the top 10 (although obvs with three months to go, the ones near the bottom could be usurped). Anyway as of now, this is where I am at: 1.       Judas Priest 2.       The Warning 3.       Nek! 4.       Rolling Quartz 5.       Band Maid 6.       April Art 7.       Lipz 8.       Sebastian Bach 9.       Mick Mars 10.   Durbin
    • I to used see them a few times at the Middle as well. With local chapter of the Hells Angels at front bar. Not much a Screaming Jets fan, so I didn't watch them with Gleeson' The guy in front now, was their recent drummer before they put out in front Those first five albums are classics
    • My brother was playing some of this guy's stuff a few months ago. I only now got around to checking it out for myself. Pretty fuckin' good!
    • Seems these guys are no more   https://sleazeroxx.com/r-i-p-cobrakill-lead-guitarist-randy-white-announces-band-no-longer-exists/
    • I grew up listening to Cuntry, and have kinda wanted to get back into it. But not the typical New Cuntry shit. So I'll give this a try. 
    • I always forget about this band, and then I listen to them and am like, "Oh, yeah, they're good!" And then forget about them for another year. 
    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice.
