From his breakthrough moment becoming Ozzy Osbourne's lead guitarist and later forming Black Label Society to his Zakk Sabbath project, involvement in the Experience Hendrix tour and filling Dimebag Darrell's shoes for the widely covered Pantera reunion, it's safe to say that Zakk Wylde knows a thing or two about iconic riffs.
With that in mind, we sat down with the man himself last week to ask him to name his five favourite riffs of all time - and he didn't disappoint. First up, Wylde picks out one of the most iconic riffs ever laid down and everybody's favourite first motif to learn on the guitar - Deep Purple's Smoke On The Water. "All us rock/metal guys, rock guitar players, you would have to learn Smoke On The Water," he tells us.
