As in Creedence Clearwater Revival. Great band that rarely gets a mention on this site. Here's My Top Ten CCR songs:
10-Heard It Through The Grapevine
Would easily be higher on my list if it wasn't 10 friggin' minutes long!
9-Travelin' Band
8-Who'll Stop The Rain
7-Have You Ever Seen The Rain
6-Lodi
5-Proud Mary
Great song, but a bit overplayed IMO to be any higher.
4-Up Around The Bend
3-Fortunate Son
2-Hey Tonight
1-Born On The Bayou
I probably like "Hey Tonight" better, but this is the ultimate CCR song IMO. Always the first tune I think of when their name comes up.
What's your Top Ten?

I have a Top 1 by them, Pagan Baby. Only song of theirs I could stand. John Fogerty's singing was like fingers on chalkboard to me.  |

1) Travellin' Band
2) Up Around the Bend
3) Fortunate Son
4) I Put a Spell on You
5) Down on the Corner
6) Suzy Q
7) Commotion
8) Bad Moon
9) Heard it through The Grapevine
10) Lodi
Good thread! I don't pull them out a lot but I really enjoy them. I actually like the long songs like Heard it Through the Grapevine & Suzy Q. Their version of I Put a Spell on You is a great tune at Halloween time. The loud lead guitar throughout Commotion seems to disturb my cat Lemmy for some reason

LOVE CCR!
Down on the Corner. ...cool memories of me and my Pop figuring out the words to that one. He's the one that turned me onto CCR.

Always the first tune I think of when their name comes up. What's your Top Ten? Great thread Jesse I can't say that I have a top 10 list from this outfit as I find the entire catalogue to be worthy enough having my desires regarding their music to switch up on a regular basis. Although Fogerty may have been somewhat of a nasty fella in terms of how shit came down with the band and it's enevitable demise, I still think that the man is a very talented musician. That said, I love the CCR output. I also have to say that Fogerty himself has carried on the tradition and to some degree with the sound of CCR with his subsequent solo efforts over the years. "Centerfield" had a few good commercial releases back in 85'? Since then, he's come out with a few other gems that pretty much never saw the light of day. In 1997, he released "Blue Moon Swamp". A collection of his solo material that for some reason never got the airplay with a few of it's selections and contained tracks worthy of a revamped CCR collaboration, not only in it's sound but musical makeup as well. "Hot Road Heart", "Rattlesnake Highway", "Bring It Down TO Jelly Roll" "Walking In A Hurricane" and "Rambunctious Boy" are stand outs on this one. "A Hundred and Ten In The Shade" is phenomenal and shows the versatility of the mans talent, not only due to his own vocal uniqueness, but the fact that he was able to share the spotlight with the other very talented vocalists on this specific track. This one drips with raw talent. Thanks Kim |
