Two of my fav's, though not the Stones:

It's The End Of The World As We Know It - REM

I Fought The Law - as covered by The Clash

Off the top of my head:

Van Halen Hot For Teacher Jamie's Crying All Fired Up
Oasis Live Forever
Cheap Trick Ain't That A Shame off Budokan
Zep Dyer Maker
Priest Pain Killer Living After Midnight
Maiden Run To The Hills
Black Crowes Hard To Handle

Lots of stuff by the Prentenders start with the drums.

Tie You Up (The Pain Of Love)
Mixed Emotions

The Cult's Love Removal Machine is a good one.

Speaking of the Doors, as mentioned by the OP, in the following clip drummer John Densmore explains and demonstrates how he came up with the bossa nova beat for the intro to Break On Through.

Keith Moon played a few excellent drum intros on Who albums, such as The Ox (My Generation), I've Had Enough (Quadrophenia), and Pure and Easy (Odds and Sods).

Rock and Roll by Zep

The brilliance of JB. Incredibly simple - one stick on the snare drum, one stick on the crash cymbal, each playing straight quarter notes. So simple, anyone can play it. But, by accenting exactly the right beats, he creates a groove that has your foot tapping before a note is played. Just great.

Influenced by another great drum intro track, Little Richard "Keep A Knockin'"

Speaking of the Who!

Speaking of The Who, Nicky Hopkins is shining on this one:

Sorry if it has been mentioned but, 1994 and 1995 versions of "You Got Me Rocking" fall into this category which was before they switched to the guitar intro (if I am not mistaken) in 1997.

Rain.

Not fade away

and the best example is:
