Creedence Clearwater Revival great band

[Freddy01 0]

Where does this band rank among the greatest bands of all time? Great sound, very raw and some great songs that people are unaware of - ramble tamble is an all time classic but for some reason underappreciated.

Great band are they not? Oh yes I think so.

+1 love it...

If it weren't for Vietnam movies, I doubt they ever would've been noticed.

I think they were very much appreciated, and still are. Their California country sound was very much a part of the late 60's and early 70's. They paved the way for the Eagles, I think.

I've heard it called 'swamp bop, too. I think, CCR spent more time in courtrooms than on stages.

John fogarty's song; 'Center Field' was recently inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame'. That song is probably played at every ball park in this country... even Little League.

I think appreciation for their music is undergoing a sort of ...a ...uh ...hmmm ...what's the word I'm searching for?...what's the word? ...uh .......comeback!

I sure liked their song "Fortunate Son." Best protest song of the 60's

You bet! I don't believe, they put-out anything I didn't like. Maybe some a little better but all of their music was good.

I was actually surprised when I learned CCR was from CA.
I had assumed they were from the Ozarks or nearby.
CCR was the best damned beer-drinking music we had in my mis-spent youth.
(As opposed to that other stuff which went best with Pink Floyd.)

I saw Clearance Clearwater Revisited (CCR minus the Fogerty brothers) last summer and they rocked.

Three Dog NIght played the same show and was good too.

I was gonna say if ya don't get the "bathroom" reference ya can't be much of a fan! I think Fogerty even played along and occasionally used those lyrics during live performances.

I get it.

"There's a bathroom on the right."


I wonder if Jimi had lived would he be joking with us in concert and singing "'Scuse me while I kiss this guy"?

No shit...when underage drinking first became a misdemeanor and I had to attend alcohol counseling after being arrested for drinking on my 20th birthday in college, I told them CCR was one of my "Triggers!"

I've always wondered what songs we never got to hear because of promoters, agents and record labels greed? Their song book is rather impressive considering the length of time they were in business. One bad contract may have denied us of their best work??
