Biography

Creedence Clearwater Revival (often known as just CCR) were a Californian band who were said to play a form of southern rock called 'swamp rock'. Led by John Fogerty, they had an incredible run of hits at their peak, scoring nine Top 10 hits between 1969 and 1971.

Creedence had begun life in 1959 as The Blue Velvets and then The Golliwogs, without much success. In 1967 they changed their name, and… Read more in Amazon's Creedence Clearwater Revival Store

Editorial Reviews

2005 collection of 21 original hits by the great San Francisco rock band that brought the psychedelic 60's back down to earth with the roots oriented songs by lead guitarist/singer John Fogerty that follow in a long tradition of blues and folk greats that advanced original blues sounds for an electrified urban audience. Based in the San Francisco bay area, their emergence in the Summer Of Love in the late 1960's was embraced by hippies, businessmen, military, intelligentsia and nerds alike. CCR's ring of truth transcended the pop charts of the time and Fogerty's oft-times prophetic lyrics have proven to be relevant in any era of rock music. Their chain of smash hits includes "Suzie Q', "Green River", "Proud Mary", "Bad Moon Rising", "Up Around The Bend", "It Came Out Of The Sky", "Have You Ever Seen The Rain" and many more included on this set.

1.0 out of 5 stars CCR deserves better, January 12, 2006
By 
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
Proud Mary, Green River, Born on the Bayou, etc. are here, but, Before You Accuse Me, Looking for a Reason, Good Golly Miss Molly and Hello Mary Lou? These are good, but not greatest hits.

Where are Travelin' Band, Fortunate Son, Someday Never Comes for example. You are better off buying "Chronicle volume one" and then "Chronicle volume two."

Buyers beware!

5.0 out of 5 stars Creedence Clearwater Revival Greatest Hits, July 29, 2010

This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
I love this collection of CCR hits. It reminds me of what an incredible collection of songs the band had and to find so many great hits on one CD is a bonus! My favourite is Long As I Can See the Light because it was played at a very close friend's funeral and so it means so much to me.
