Another, then.
The intro to Motley Crue's "Dr.Feelgood" (the sinister, bass-driven bit before the riff kicks in) is the main riff of Killing Joke's "Love Like Blood."

I remember reading something about David Lee Roth getting in a huge fight with Valerie Bertinelli (Eddie's wife) that "Immigrant Song" was a re-write of "Balli Hai" (sp?) from "South Pacific".

Hmmmmm....don't hear it, but....
"King Contrary Man" by the Cult = "Fight For Your Right to Party" by Beastie Boys (both produced by Rick Rubin, of course).

Hmmmm....possibly the opening notes of "First & Last & Always," but only just...

Things I can think of from here: Roadrunner (organ solo), Ring of Fire (horn part, played on melodica), Levitation by 13th Floor Elevators (verse part of a whole song on Internal Wrangler), etc. etc.

Cobain frigging teased MTaF right before ripping into SLTS at the 1992 Reading Festival. At the least, he was amused by the similarity; at the worst, he was openly acknowledging what he stole from.

Also, much has been made in years past, in various circles, of "Waking Up" = "No More Heroes", but I found the track The Stranglers ripped off in the first place for *that* riff. It's a keyboard riff at the beginning of a track on The Essential Pebbles and now it's come to it I can't remember what it's called... it's not "You Treated Me Bad" by the JuJus, is it? (Look for update on this once I get home to check)

Don Henley's "All She Wants To Do Is Dance" and Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" are pretty much the same song
