BBC Radio 2 announces '100 Greatest Guitar Riffs' poll

BBC Radio 2 is on a mission to decide the best guitar riffs of all time.

Selected by a panel of music industry types including Radio 2 and 6 Music DJs, journalists and producers the shortlist features 100 classic riffs from some expected legends (Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Black Sabbath), some modern classics (Daft Punk, Queens Of The Stone Age, Rage Against The Machine) and some perhaps unexpected entries (Arctic Monkeys, Edwyn Collins, Radiohead).
