I've become fascinated by kickass riffs from artists who don't normally concern themselves with ass-kickery.

Examples:

Darling Nikki by Prince

Movin' Out by Billy Joel

Beat It by Michael Jackson (though it's sorta explained by Eddie Van Halen's presence)

Post your own.

    I think of Prince Rogers Nelson as a groove guy more than an ass-kicker. He made music for dancin' and screwin', not headbangin'.
