Info for Creedence Clearwater Revival (Remastered)

Creedence Clearwater Revival seemed like something of an anomaly on their 1968 debut. They were miles from the mind-expanding flower-power explorations of their California contemporaries. They came across as a gritty, hard-hitting band respectful of their blues, country, and rock & roll roots.

John Fogerty's cutting, raspy voice bore echoes of Howlin' Wolf and Little Richard as he delivered lyrics that alternately celebrated and bemoaned a working man's life, much like Merle Haggard and other '60s country artists. That the strong New Orleans swamp-rock flavor seemed so natural (Californian Fogerty's bayou tales were pure flights of fancy) was a testament to the strength of Creedence Clearwater Revival's musical vision. The way they put a respectful but contemporary twist on Dale Hawkins's 'Suzie Q' and the chilling 'I Put a Spell on You' shows that they knew enough about the past to step confidently into rock & roll's future.
