The little growl the Page does going into the solo at 3:35


The transition at 3:15 to one of their best musical segments ever. Plants exclamation is right on point

This must qualify as one of the most powerful transitions I have heard. In "If Only for the Moment", when the guitars and drums kick in around the 2:07 mark, and the drum beat continues to the end of the song. It lifts the song from good to great.

Complete Control by The Clash. The transition starting at 1:41 is quite brilliant and transforms a great punk rock tune into what might be the greatest rock song ever.

I still remember the first time I heard the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, buying their first record without ever having heard a note of their music. The transition at 1:05 just came out of nowhere. Now, you all have probably heard the band because they struck it big a few years later so it won't be as big a surprise to you, but for me it was something I was totally unprepared for.
