Lozz196 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Love CCR, so many great songs. Worth checking out Jon Foghertys The Long Road Home, live CD, it`s excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Loved CCR since I was a kid wearing out their singles on my mono Dansette record player... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Admiral Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) I think this is from the Albert Hall - Fortunate Son : great, great track. Love the bass rig too - the very antithesis of lightweight gear : four 8x10s (or possibly 2x15s)! Rock & Roll baby!!! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=plj82F4kY7o Edited August 31, 2014 by The Admiral Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILL POSTERS Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Always struck me as a wildly undated band, Bad Moon Rising always takes me back to bombing down to Rickmansworth in a Mk2 Zodiac to see my then girlfriend - great car when your only about 17 - Heres my favourite creedence track, whch nobody else ever seems to have heard of. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuPtOtGF4TY Edited August 31, 2014 by icastle Link Fixed.

BassTractor Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 [quote name='BILL POSTERS' timestamp='1409499467' post='2540214'] my favourite creedence track, whch nobody else ever seems to have heard of. [/quote] That's weird. Half the world - well, in my circles anyway - seems to have at least both Chronicle and Volume Two, and it's on one of those.

Diablo Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 [quote]Heres my favourite creedence track, which nobody else ever seems to have heard of.[/quote] Well I persuaded my last band to include it in the setlist so not so! We did our bit to spread the word about Jose and his tractor! Great to have a thread on CCR - possibly my favourite band/style ever. Even made it into one of my favourite films - Apocalypse Now - who can name that tune? And was it CCR themselves playing it live?

leroydiamond Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Was listening to their album 'Cosmos Factory' the other day and every track is a classic. Outstanding recording from a terrific band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I love CCR, it's a shame that most 'non musos' only seem to know 'Bad Moon Rising' though as that's one of my least favourites of theirs. I wanted our 'acoustic' band to do Down on the Corner but they looked at me like I'd lost the plot.

hollywoodrox Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Looks like I'm the only one who is not a big fan, friend of mine plays their stuff in the car a lot along with ed sheerhan, drives me nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
