Interestingly, he listed his top 10 riffs 5 years ago (around the time of Contraband) in Total Guitar magazine and they were quite different. I'll try to dig up that issue when I get home. They were hand written. Back In The Saddle was number one I think. Number 10 had Black Dog scribbled out then he wrote the Ocean, scribbled it out and settled on How Many More Times. Space Truckin by Deep Purple was there  - can't remember the rest. He also listed top 10 solos (No.1 was Last Child) and top 10 guitar players (Jimmy Page was no.1 I think, Rory Gallagher was in there too, which is cool).

This paragraph was with the songs, so I think he acknowledges what you're saying.

15 all-time great Rock & Roll riffs (13)
February 23, 2009 
Slash
I was hugely influenced by the single note riff, here is a quick playlist of 15 great riffs that come to mind. But, there are many, many more! I'm going to come up with batch next month.

Honestly, I saw you and some other people questioning that in the other thread a week or so ago(or whenever the hell that was).

I know the phrase "comfort zone" was being used at the time, and I remember thinking Slash just would never even consider going in the directions getting talked about because it's just not something he's into.

But I was about 4 pages late to the party and didn't want to just re-hash.

I can completely respect the talent of guys like Buckethead, but riffs like the ones he mentions are the ones that really turn me on too.
