From Purple I almost prefer the Perfect Strangers riff.

Oh, and I thought it was Stairway to Heaven that got people thrown out of guitar shops.

Perfect Strangers is one of my fave’s too, as for evictions, to be fair it’s supposed to be both, or a shout from the counter of “if you do that the price triples”

Assuming we're sticking to rock and pop music I always thought UFO's Rock Bottom was a pretty good riff. Rory Gallagher's Brute, Force, and Ignorance, another. And Little Feat's Dixie Chicken a third.

Outside of these genres Charlie Christian probably came up with the best riffs of all time anyway. Although that one Leiber and Stoller lick has got a bit of mileage, too.
