Keith Richards immediately comes to mind. Satisfaction, Honky Tonk Women, Brown Sugar, Start Me Up, and lots of others.

Jimmy Page owned this category from 1969-79. Still does. Zeppelin riffs are the best. _________________ I'm leaning on the threshold

That's why I didn't already say Zeppelin. I would've gone on forever with the whole list of Zeppelin songs.

I read somewhere recently that awarded Debaser by Pixies for having the best Bass Riffs of all time.
It's just like four notes each repeated a few times. It works for the song, but it's hardly anything close to being the greatest of all time.
Best guitar riff, probably Day Tripper.
