Includes the theme from The Munster's TV show. It may be sampled, but it sounds like it is actually being played by instruments. The guitar sounds different.

That's not right. To my knowledge, Hank never did any version of Wild Side of Life - other than perhaps live.

The song you are referring to is:

The Great Speckled Bird

and

I'm Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes

and

Wild Side of Life

and

It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels


They lyrics at the end of the Coe song that you are talking about explicitly invoke the history of the tune.

Incorporates Poke Salad Annie.
Tony Joe White had to clear it with his record label as a favor to Ray Wylie.

Chicago has a couple:

Feelin' Stronger Every Day incorporates Jumping Jack Flash at the end of the song. Here is the version without horns and you can hear all of Terry Kath's guitar work

Feelin' Stronger Every Day

At the 4:40 mark Robert Lamm incorporates some I Am The Walrus into the song

South California Purples

Heaven's "In The Beginning" namedrops a bunch of bands and riffs, but that's kinda the point of the song.

The line before it quotes "Let's Spend the Night Together" as well.

Almost every song Paul McCartney wrote after leaving the Beatles, seemed to have multiple melodic hooks that most artists would have been happy to have in just one.

Uncle Albert….
