Paul's list was super, as is yours. These are the songs (from 1970-1979) I added in the comments section:

Kinks: Rats; 20th Century Man; The Hard Way; Get Up.

Modern Lovers: Roadrunner

Velvet Underground: Sweet Jane

David Bowie: Suffragette City

John Cale, Macbeth

Robin Trower: Bridge of Sighs

Mike Heron: Warm Heart Pastry

Here are a few more, maybe a little less rocky than the above entries:

Brian Auger and the Trinity, "Pavane" https://youtu.be/u8oRbTOhbdo

Egg, "A Visit to Newport Hospital" (note the riff similar to--but earlier than--that of "Smoke on the Water") https://youtu.be/e7_xdm_CJ_k

Kevin Ayers, Dr. Dream Theme https://youtu.be/efupe4p87vw

National Health, "Elephants" https://youtu.be/LHxbEFB94TY

Mothers of Invention, "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama" https://youtu.be/Y0Oj-eZqpHE

Brian Eno, "King's Lead Hat" https://youtu.be/e3PRnZZaY0I

Glass Harp, “Changes” (some righteous shredding near the end by Phil Keaggy)
