I've always thought the transition from "Friends" into "Celebration Day" is pretty neat.

Yes, me too. I wonder if that transition would have been anywhere near as effective had the drums on the intro to 'Celebration Day' not been accidentally erased.

That drum sample from "Funky Snakefoot" that marks the transition from "To All The Girls" into "Shake Your Rump-ah" on Paul's Boutique is the most exciting thing that has ever happened in music.

'Broken' into 'Head Over Heels' into 'Broken (live)' from Tears For Fears' Songs From The Big Chair.

I just love the way the riff in 'Broken' is reprised as the intro and outro to 'Head Over Heels' in a slower way.

five years pass...

Just now on shuffle: beautiful, seamless transition from Aphex Twin - 'Ventolin (Asthma Beats Mix)' > Diddy - 'Hate You Now'.

eight months pass...

Listening to a '98 playlist atm, and the shit-hot tension of Blues Explosion's 'Torture' building to its crescendo only to be utterly deflated by the fragile delivery of 'Adia, I do believe I've failed you' just about made me die laughing at my desk.

Joni Mitchell “People’s Parties” —> “The Same Situation”

Yes that Joni Mitchell's transition is so good that I always feel like it's one (great) song !
