Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

They were together just five years, and between the potent era of 1969-‘71, Creedence Clearwater Revival reached the Top 10 with nine different singles, an accomplishment the band's architect John Fogerty has cracked just once ("The Old Man Down the Road") since CCR's demise in 1972. And now that the three-decade battle between Fogerty and the Fantasy label has ended, the man-and-band reunion comes full circle with a 25-song compilation that packages many of CCR's made-for-radio hits with a sprinkling of solo numbers and live recordings from recent Fogerty tours. Fogerty hasn't penned a whole lot of clunkers, and his CCR catalog sparkles with modernly remastered chooglin' classics like "Bad Moon Rising," "Travelin' Band," "Fortunate Son," "Lookin' Out My Backdoor" and "Have You Ever Seen the Rain." But the non-chronological sequencing is unpredictable, and far too many Creedence gems were left on the cutting room floor to call this package "The Ultimate." --Scott Holter

5.0 out of 5 stars Fogerty Through The Years November 1, 2005
Format:Audio CD
The Long Road Home is subtitled the ultimate John Fogerty Creedence Collection. While it is tough to make an appellation like that because someone's favorite tracks are always left out, this twenty-five song collection comes pretty darn close. Spanning Mr. Fogerty's almost forty year career the collection include his beloved CCR hits like "Proud Mary", "Born On The Bayou", "Green River", "Who'll Stop The Rain", "Down On The Corner" and two versions of "Fortunate Son" to his solo works like "Centerfield", "Old Man Down The Road", live versions of "Rockin' All Over The World" and "Almost Saturday Night" to the title track from last year's Deja Vu (All Over Again). The only complaint is that the collection relies heavily on his CCR work and that two of his solo albums, the overlooked Eye Of The Zombie and Blue Ridge Rangers are not represented at all and the two tracks from his self-titled 1975 album are recent live version not the original versions from the out of print album. Those are minor complaints about a truly first rate release that shows the greatness of one the best songwriters in rock history and a major influence on countless artists.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great single disc collection of CCR/Fogerty classics November 11, 2005
Format:Audio CD
Although it's missing a few important tracks, "The Long Road Home" is a great single disc collection of JF's solo hits and CCR classics. Fogerty returned to work with Fantasy after the original owner Saul Zaentz (Fogerty felt that Zaentz cheated the band out of the royalities they deserved and was generally less than honest with them)sold the company. Interestingly, the live tracks concentrate on his CCR material for the most part ("Almost Saturday Night" was originally recorded for Fogerty's second solo album "John Fogerty" aka "Old Shep").

Regardless, there's a consistency to Fogerty's songwriting throughout his career and a return to the same themes much as Springsteen or Lennon returned to similar themes throughout their career. Sonically these have never sounded better on CD. I am disappointed that some of the singles that Fogerty recorded for Fantasy in an effort to fulfill his contract and tracks from the MIA third Fogerty solo album aren't included here as well (the third solo album original mastertapes were destroyed at Fogerty's direction but some solid sounding bootlegs have been floating around for years). That would make this a definite must buy for fans who have most of his material. Heck, even if they were offered in a limited edition two CD set fans would eat this up.

Nevertheless, if you're looking for a one-stop shop grab bag of great CCR titles, Fogerty solo songs and live tracks this is the CD to purchase. The tracks aren't arranged chronologically--which actually works pretty well and makes some of the more familiar material sound fresh again.

Like The Beatles' "1" this is far from comprehensive but has some of Fogerty's most important songs from throughout his career. You can argue about which tracks are missing (I've always loved "It Came Out of the Sky" with its biting satiric story of a farmer who makes a bundle off a crashed UFO but it wasn't a hit so probably doesn't qualify for inclusion) but it's hard to argue with the quality of the man's songwriting. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars His best recording out, EX sound 5+ February 17, 2006
Format:Audio CD
This is better than anything John or CCR has out. even better than any of the remastered CCR cd's. I dont get into song selection its all good, you can take 10 dif people on 10 of the same CD's and everyone will have dif views on song pref. Firstly its all about how its SOUNDS. If I dont have to turn all my cd's players to near full blast to get a good hum out of it then its all good.

5 + stars on the remaster on this one.
Listened with Sennheiser 595's, the best that I have found, had 555 for a couple years they are nice too, but cant touch 595's, pay the dif and see, er I mean hear.
