Love the TYA "Uncle Jam" and how Alvin Lee shows his versatility other than in blues or R&R.
That tune is very reminiscent and gives a nod to jazz & Wes Montgomery.

I read on Alvin's biography that he originally wanted to play clarinet and Benny Goodman was who he wanted to emulate.

Indeed. The "King of Swing" was the master of the licorice stick. Charlie Christian who played the guitar in Goodman's band was a major influence for Wes Montgomery....so there's that too.

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Rude Awakening #2 - YouTube

Very underrated, it has become one of my favorites of theirs over the years.

Can't believe this hasn't been posted yet, probably one of the top 10 openings to an album ever.

FWIW: The ending is actually a backwards track of two people talking and playing ping-pong (yes, I grabbed just that part and reversed it through a music editing program to find out what the fuck it was!) And they cut it out on this YouTube
