Junkie's Promise is pure rock n' roll

Wish Fulfillment for me...

Nice calls on Starfield Road and No Queen Blues...

A few of mine would be Cinderella's Big Score, Burning Spear, Bull In the Heather, Rain on Tin, and I certainly gained a whole new appreciation for Shaking Hell's start after seeing it done live.

And a few others, although probably not officially "intros" since they are part of the song structure, but Unwind, Shoot, and Theresa's Sound World get me going.

And of course, the opening chords of Karen Koltrane give me goosebumps every time.

Stones
Pink Steam up until the vocals (dont know if that counts)
Love the way Wish Fullfilment starts
No Queen blues is awesome
Saucer-like
100% (GREAT feedback)
pretty standard but Incinerate always had a good feel to it when it starts
Come to think of it Sonic Youth sure knows how to start a song!

Yes, they really nailed it with that one. That to me encapsulates the essence of the Sonic Youth guitar sound as well as any other moment I can think of and better than many. It makes you want to listen to the whole damn record through too, as an "Intro" should.
