Is there any piece of music (an actual song that you know of) for acoustic or electric guitar which features a sequence of more than 5 consecutive hammer-ons and / or pull-offs generated from a single strike with your picking hand?

In basic logic of it is a single string riff something like:

0-h1-h2-h3-h4-po3-po2-po1-po0

or variations of that, played anywhere up the neck (doesn't have to be quite so chromatic!)

Anyone?

There is a Bluegrass song called "Limerock" with some very fast
hammer-ons, 5 or maybe 6 consecutive. Dan Crary's version is pretty impressive, even if you're not into bluegrass. As far as Rock, maybe Van Halen.
