Ok, there can't really be a "best", there's so many good ones. Post your favourite ones, link it and give a description why you think it's so good. I'll start:

Cream - Sunshine of your love (youtu.be)

Ok, one of my favourites. Brilliant riff to start with, played with slightly different effects. One song where the intro is better than the chorus.

Made even more famous with a famous movie scene in Goodfellas, a simple but brilliant shot of Robert De Niro, slowly zooming in while he smokes and decides he's going to kill Maury https://youtu.be/IQmr0fmqqqM

Lol, I love primus, les claypool is a legend. But my favourite intro is My Name Is Mud. You can feel the weight of the strings and they somehow get heavier. WBBB is iconic though

Ok, possibly one of the most iconic intros in music. My only problem with it is that it's played so often, used in so many movies, played in so many bars that it's become a bit annoying. Pity because it's a great intro
