    I KNEW someone would put this!! God, it's like four seconds of feedback and they have a whole chapter on the anthology DVD about it. First use of feedback? maybe. BEST use? not even close. I don't even know what is. probably something on Electric Ladyland

    Frank Zappa was the king of controlled feedback. Check out the songs "Zoot Allures" or "Filthy Habits".

    Nirvana's "Endless, Nameless" (the hidden track at the end of Nevermind) is pretty cool and loaded with ridiculous feedback.
    It is time to admit that we used to rock like hurricanes. It is time to run for the hills and go round and round. It is time for us to shout at the devil. We've got the right to choose it, there ain't no way we'll lose it, and we're not gonna take it anymore.

    The best feedback that I've seen (although might be a pedal) is Buddy Guy at the SRV tribute when he played Long Way From Home...listen to 2:17 - 2:34

    I love the way Buddy starts the song and is so quiet until he hits that note

    I love that note (see my "Best Note ever hit" thread I started...I said that one).

    Hendrix owned the space on the stage, he owned feedbacks as well.

    Unhendrix related I'd say better living through chemistry by qotsa.
