Perhaps the shortest intro in this thread, but the one that brings me the most anticipation:
Chickamauga - Uncle Tupelo

Others:

Anodyne - Uncle Tupelo
Gun - Uncle Tupelo
Moonshiner - Uncle Tupelo

Wish Were Here - Pink Floyd
Welcome To The Jungle - G&R
Woke Up This Morning - A3
Nutshell - Alice in Chains
Jessica - The Allman Brothers (named my daughter after this song)
LA Woman - The Doors
Radar Love - Golden Earring
Eyes Of The World - Grateful Dead
One Particular Harbor - Jimmy Buffett
Cortez The Killer - Neil Young (tons of versions, but Weld strikes me)
I Believe - REM

Hmmm....seems I strayed a bit from the intent of the post. Well, those all have Intros I like

Don't Fear The Reaper.

i've got a fever. and the only prescription is more cow bell.

the opening to the hendrix version of all along the watchtower is up there, too.

I'm thinking George Harrison's count-off into Taxman leading into Revolver. Or even Airbag from OK Computer.

I've mentioned this before on this board, but I think the beginning of Graveyard Shift on No Depression is one of the best starts of any album, the guitar, the vocals, just perfect.
