Yep, "Smoke On The Water" is pretty famous. I knew the riff before I knew the song or even Deep Purple. Others include the riffs in these songs: "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath "Black Dog" by Led Zeppelin "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones "Day Tripper" by the Beatles "Purple Haze" by The Jimi Hendrix Experience But I knew the riff from "Smoke On The Water" before I knew who any of these bands were.
