I'll offer the Sex Pistols Pretty Vacant as mine

Does anyone remember Studio B’s dance hit, ‘Come On Get It On’?

I’m not sure if the guitar riff was sampled from elsewhere but it was pretty awesome nonetheless

NOTTINGHAM

Immigrant song: Led Zeppelin

My Own Summer: Deftones

- Brute force, anthemic sledgehammer of a tune.

Nod of appreciation to Thunderstruck, as mentioned above.
