Wow, there are so many to choose for me but if I had to select a few, here would be some of the top riffs I like and would recommend for listening:
AC/DC - Back in Black
Thunderstruck (Intro only)
T.N.T.
Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze
Foxy Lady
Van Halen - Hot For Teacher
The Beatles - I Want You (She So Heavy)
Yer Blues
Helter Skelter
Led Zeppelin - Good Times, Bad Times
Immigrant Song (as heard on "School of Rock")
Communication Breakdown
Black Dog
The Doors - Touch Me
Light My Fire
Five to One
Hello, I Love You
and more.. (there too many Doors song to list for
me)
Those are a few selection that I like, but there might be more, so I can't list them all.

How about, just about everything Jimmy Page has ever played? Pick any Zeppelin tune, you'll hear one of the greatest riffs ever written.

Deffo the beginning of sweet child by gnr, although the opening riff of paradise city is also rather good too.

It would have to be something by The Jam
I also really like the one in Seven Nation Army by The Whites Stripes

definitely several gods of guitar out there - but based on my personal favorite - have to go with my "heart"...
magic man opening riff (roger fisher)... unless we can count the intro to crazy on you; which is silver wheels.
nancy wilson is the guitar goddess !!!!
