Iron Man-Black Sabbath. The next one was I Put A Spell On You-Marilyn Manson. Probably should've started with the second on first.

"Crossroads" by Cream off of Wheels Of Fire. I still get goose-bumps when I here Clapton's solos in that tune. )=(

I think mine was "Dazed and Confused"
Born Under a Bad Sign...the Hendrix version...sort of an F minor pentatonic.

The first thing I learned to play was the bass riff from 'The Chain' by Fleetwood Mac, but the first full song was 'John I'm Only Dancing' by David Bowie. I had never heard the song at the time but it was transcribed in Bassist magazine. Good place to start I think!
