Recommend me some essential CCR...

[brigden]

My Grade 5 teacher used to play CCR on his guitar for us to sing along with. Been a while and I'm feeling nostalgic...

 

Rising wind 🙂

That one song that's in all the Vietnam movies.

Fortunate Son?

Its also used in a patriotic Tommy Hilfiger commercial. Quite Ironic.

Fortunate Son

Proud Mary

Bad Moon Rising

Heard it through the grapevine (I don't know if they did it originally)

and their rendition of Sweet Home Alabama (I like it more than the original)

WTF is Rising Wind? You mean "Up Around the Bend"?

The essential CCR is almost all CCR. They did so few albums, but had so many hits in such a short time that it's hard to not recommend any of it. Their heyday was only 68-70, but they had 6 killer albums in that period. Get them all. Quit at Pendulum, they did a couple after that, but they were not as good.

Damn you, damn you all. Because of you I just downloaded the two Chronicles off of iTunes. Well, at least it's great music, and 20 bucks well spent.
