Bit o' trivia- didn't Eddie Cochrane have the first hit with Summertime Blues? I'll bet Fred was around back then...

Absolutely. Eddie Cochran had a hit with it in 1958, but The Guess Who version is clearly, as Burton pointed out, a cover of the Blue Cheer version. The Who also did a killer version of it on their LIVE AT LEEDS album.

Ouch...the pain, the pain. Actually, I was in existence for the Eddie Cochrane version, but the Blue Cheer and Who versions are more my era. I still remember buying the "Live at Leeds" LP, with all the cool posters, handbills and stuff inside. That's one of the things that I miss about LPs...you don't get any "cool stuff" inside CDs.
