Band:Deep Purple
Song:Black Night
Bassist: Roger Glove

Deep Purple have written great riffs other than smoke on the water.
Here's an absolute classic that still features in their live set today.

Intro descent
G|--9--9--9--9--9--9-7--7--7--7--7--7--|--------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------|--9--9--9--9--9--9--5--5--5--5--5--5--|
A|-------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|

Make sure you play these 8th notes evenly and listen to the drums (if you are playing in a band)

Main Riff
G|--------------------|--------------------|------------------|-----------------------|
D|------5-------------|------5----7--5-----|------------------|--5--------------------|
A|--7------7-5------5-|--7------7------7---|--5---7-----------|------7----------------|
E|---------------7----|--------------------|------------------|-----------------------|

The main riff is relatively straightforward when played at the 5th position as indicated.
