This Could Be A Real Band, March 17, 2000
This review is from: Willy and the Poor Boys { 20 Bit K2 Super Coding } (Audio CD)
The second in the classic CCR trilogy,WILLY AND THE POOR BOYS transports you to a street corner where a makeshift quartet strives to entertain onlookers.This is precisely what John Fogerty and co. want to put across.If you close your eyes and listen to such tracks as DOWN ON THE CORNER, POORBOY SHUFFLE and MIDNIGHT SPECIAL you can picture that streetcorner band.FORTUNATE SON,DON'T LOOK NOW,EFFIGY and IT CAME OUT OF THE SKY show John trying to deal with the Vietnam War and the politics that came out of it.This is classic Creedence Clearwater Revival:driving rock and thought-provoking lyrics.
