VA - BEST Song Intros (A Butterboy Compilation) (6 x CD's) PART 1





BEST SONG INTROS
VA - BEST Song Intros (A Butterboy Compilation) (6 x CD's)


Every now and then the beginning of a song makes the whole track, or at least prepares us for what is to come. Intros that don't just encourage but require you to keep listening. Without a good intro we would probably just turn the song off all together.  The songwriter tries to build expectation and lead us into something great. Sometimes they just have a hook so barbed that even if you stopped the track the hook would remain in your head days later.

Some song intros take their time and slowly pull you in. Others simply grab your attention and slap you with a sound the say, wake up here I am.  This set of 150 songs is a mixture of both. I hope you can agree these tracks are great because of their classic intros. Enjoy!

  1. Well BB, you hooked me in with anticipation with the bestly worded intro to these best intros.. your explanation of what's to follow over 6 CDs. Some song intros are so well crafted you don't realize the effect that it's drawing your ears in, but it does. Others stand out for their brilliance of composition and getting your attention. Time well spent to have these identified and all collected in one place! Only someone with your observational skill and (re-)collection could pull this together. Good job sir, a fine selection! This is a Great Intro to Great Intros!
