I've been listening to this CD for 2 weeks in my car on the way to work.Free Music Review: Soundtrack of an era
Hit: 5 Stars
This is an excellent compilation of CCR's tunes from the late 60s, early 70s. There's a reason why Credence tunes kept popping up in movies and commercials. It's great music and evocative of the era from which it comes. No need for me to review the individual tunes; anybody with a radio has head most of them. A must-have for any music fan.Free Music Review: Fogerty
Hit: 5 Stars
Great value. If you are into the 60s' and 70s' you will love this one. Free Music Review: Straight-up, gritty swamp rock
Hit: 5 Stars
I've tried to find other bands from the 60s-70s which have the same grittiness and raw beats as Creedence. Some came close, but nothing seemed to deliver the same level of punch CCR does. It's thumping, growling, stripped-down rock n' roll that isn't swallowed up in a wall of distortion or overproduction that a lot of bands today are preoccupied with. If you're itching for something raw and without gloss that isn't acoustic or listless indie (snoooze!), CCR serves it up straight and hard. I'd even say they're the AC/DC of swamp/roots rock.
These tracks are from both volumes, but they're my favorite picks for songs with beats that don't mess around and a rockin' melody:
Born on The Bayou, Tombstone Shadow, I Heard it Through the Grapevine, Run Through the Jungle, I Put A Spell on You, Good Golly Miss Molly
