Both the Yes intro and the Big Country-- probably with apologies to Copeland somewhere along the line. Like Floyd Cramer's 'Dallas' theme

"No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed", the album's opening track, was written by American artist Richie Havens. It opens with an orchestral theme taken from the soundtrack to the 1958 Western film The Big Country by Jerome Moross. — Wikipedia

Hell, a few years ago on I forgot which WFMU show someone played a new track which very cleverly lifted a couple of passages from Richard Hatch's theme to "The Mothers In Law". The bongo opening from TV became snare drum roll, and then there was a later passage that was unmistakeable. I LOVE when people do stuff like that, and I don't consider it stealing.
Yes, it was, Bob. I have a copy I got at a boot sale in Brick Lane. The record comes out from the inside, which makes it only slightly less annoying than then the Unipak.

Blue Cheer was essentially the first noise band. They were crude but generated a tsunami of sound in which the sound registered as a physical presence rather than music. Borbetomagus and Japanise bands such as CCCC developed a similar idea. I noticed a poster for a concert at the Grande Ballroom featuring Blue Cheed, MC5 and The Stooges. Everyone must have come out deaf.

The first person to explore noise-music was the Italian Futurist composer / painter Luigi Russolo (1885 - 1947). He wrote his manifestoThe Art of Noises (1913) and invented his own instrument the Intonarumori.

The very first album I fell madly in love with was that first eponymous Procol Harum lp. Played it until the grooves turned gray. Seriously.
