FEELIN’ ALRIGHT? (FEELING ALRIGHT)
“Feelin’ Alright?”, also known as “Feeling Alright”, is a song written by Dave Mason of the English rock band Traffic from their eponymous 1968 album Traffic. Joe Cocker performed another very famous version of the song. It has also been recorded by (in 1969) Three Dog Night (as the B-side to “Celebrate”), Rare Earth, David Ruffin, and Rustix.

“Get Ready” (which was evidently recorded live) was a million-selling record by Rare Earth that was certified gold; the extended version of this song was also one side of an album called Get Ready (1969). The other side features among its tracks two oft-covered songs on 1960’s albums, “Feeling Alright” and “Tobacco Road”.
