In UK? Vote for Under the Bridge on BBC’s Greatest Guitar Riff Ever!
This is for those who like to vote on things, the others may skip it and wait for updated on new music, whenever that occurs.
As part of their Guitar Season of programmes, BBC’s Radio 2 is asking its listeners to vote for what they consider to be the Greatest Guitar Riff Ever. A panel of guitar music experts (their own presenters, music critics, record producers) came up with 100 of their favourite riffs and one of them is the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Under the Bridge.
The vote has been open for about five days now and it closes at 5pm on Friday 25 July 2014. Only people in UK are eligible to vote, but that does not mean the rest cannot at least cheer and, of course, enjoy the riffs. Here is the entire list.
The results will be announced, presumably in the form of a countdown on BBC Radio 2 on Monday, the 25th August.
BONUS FOR EVERYBODY WHO CANNOT VOTE: if you were to select one single riff from John’s time with RHCP, would you pick this one or some other? If so, which one?
