Rockin' Friday

I kind of went off on a "Feelin' Alright" tangent this week.

I was not aware that the song was written by Dave Mason and originally recorded by Traffic. I thought it was older than that. (Ray Charles, maybe...)



Of course Joe Cocker covered it, and added that catchy electric piano riff. (probably the best version, because of it)



And Grand Funk: (really interesting bass line)



And Rare Earth:



Not done yet, how about The Black Crowes



The rabbit hole is deep. It seems everyone has covered this song at one time or another. Not bad for a song that only has 2 chords.

I'll leave you with a corona quarantine version starring the author, Dave Mason (and others)
