The Who - The intro to "Baba O'Riley" and the solo in "Won't get fooled again" on Who's Next
Roxy Music - Eno's solo on "Editions of You" from "For Your Pleasure"
ELP - The solo at the end of "Lucky Man" on the first self titled album

And there's a moment in Stockhausen's Kontakte where the electronics (cos in 1960 it probably wasn't a syth) go

Wizzy Noise - Pandora Box (the Moroder bass and the synthlines a semitone apart in the middle)
Kick Bong - Eclosys
Peace Orchestra - Who am I (most of the synhy stuf in it)

oOmiaq - adventUre toi (myspace.com/oomiaq)
quio - mom + wife (myspace/quio i think) - the bassline and the slippery reversed stuff. IDM cutups as well.

I really like the song "Paninaro" by PSB. The original version is all synths and sounds awesome. I also like a lot of the synth work on their album "Behavior".

The self-titled album "Erasure" (came out in the mid-90s) is also synth heaven. Very good.
