Free Music Notes for Chronicle Vol. 2: Twenty Great CCR Classics
Free Music Review: Another fine compilation....
Hit: 5 Stars
This is probably the best CCR compilation to get aside from, of course, the first Chronicle. Where Chronicle covered Creedence the singles band, this collection delves deeper into album gems. Many are as great as the CCR classics you probably know already...Born on the Bayou, Cotton Fields, It Came Out of the Sky, Molina....and more! It is a worthy listen, but truly I would advise folks to go and buy the entire Creedence catalogue. Even owning both Chronicles is not sufficient. You still would miss Keep on Chooglin', Bootleg, and other great tunes. Also, I would advise others to stay from the other Creedence compilations. They just seem to be ways for Fantasy Records to milk more money out of the consumer. No, just acknowledge that Creedence Clearwater Revival is the greatest band there ever was and get the original albums!Free Music Review: This,and Vol. 1 of Chronicle,is all the CCR you'll ever need.
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this collection for two reasons.One,because it features Creedence Clearwater Revival's version of the late,great Ricky Nelson's "Hello Mary Lou"(a song written by the late,great Gene Pitney)that I had heard on a radio program(and I didn't necessarily want to purchase the original CCR album that it appears on,"Mardi Gras",their last).Secondly,I've owned the first(and more popular)edition of Chronicle for many years in different formats(first on vinyl,then cassette,and,finally,on CD).This disc makes a nice companion to that first volume,and,with that,as the title of my review states,is all the CCR you'll ever need.It's also nice that each volume appears on a single disc,so this is a worthwhile upgrade for the comparably bulkier 2 record vinyl sets of these releases.Free Music Review: this and the first chronicle are essential for any collecti

This is a very good album. It has maybe the best Creedence song "Midnight Special" which I wish was on the first chronicle along with "born on the bayou". But I think they neededa reason for me to buy the second chonicle. When I got the second chronicle I was happy with the music. I love "Wrote a song for everyone" which John Fogerty wrote after a fight with his wife. "wrote a song for everyone/but I couldn't even talk to you" love that line. Theres also many other good songs so it its worth the buy. Buy it if not for keeping your sanity in a day of crap music then to try to save your kids from being sucked into the world of N'Sync.Free Music Review: More From The Best American Band of the 1960's

If you liked the 1st Chronicle, give this a try. It picks up "Suzie Q" (Part 2) where part 1 left off and includes the classic "Born on the Bayou". This collection includes not only important "B-sides" (like the 2 mentioned) but regular album cuts like "Good Golly Miss Molly", "It Came Out of the Sky", "Wrote a Song for Everyone", "Before You Accuse Me", and the essential "Midnight Special". If you're still hungry for more after both Chronicle CD's, then you need to buy their original albums!Free Music Review: Better then Vol. 1
Hit: 5 Stars
While most fans will be shocked by that, dont be. Vol 1 is a collection of fine music and probably some of the best American rock ever made. The problem is how many people actully know CCR beyond that. Vol 1 songs are played on radios thru out the world over and over again, while Vol 2 songs dont get much play. Born on the Bayou, Night Time Is the Right Time, Wrote a Song for Everyone, Hello Mary Lou are just some of the amazing songs on the set. If your a true CCR fan you own this set or can at least name some songs off this cd.
