    Billy Joel's "Angry Young Man" intro is one of my favorites.

    I picked ELP and Yes from the choices provided.

    Three others that sprang immediately to mind were:

    Firth of Fifth - Genesis
    Piano Concerto No.4 - Beethoven
    Seeds of Gold - Neal Morse

    The Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder ones aren't piano but keyboards. I'm unfamiliar with the rest.

    Dream On is mostly a guitar intro. November Rain is nice but not memorable, IMHO.

    Ray Charles, "What I Say", love how the piano intro goes into the drum intro, really draws you in.
