In summary, the song at 35:00 in the documentary is thought to be a four chord riff played by session musicians to avoid licensing fees. It is likely the chords of Summertime Blues by both Eddie Cochrane and The Who.

Does anyone know what the song is at 35:00? It only lasts for a few seconds. The credits at the end are too blurry to make out and googling the documentary and going on the history channel website hasn't helped.

My guess is that they got some session guys to play a four chord riff so that they wouldn't have to pay licensing fees.
