Creedence Clearwater Revival ~ Vol. 1-Chronicle-20 Greatest H
ÍøÆغÚÁÏ.co.uk
Few bands of the 1960s retained as much a sense of the roots of rock and roll as did Creedence Clearwater Revival. Their music is rife with country, rockabilly, and R&B influences, a combination that produced several hit singles--most of which are present on this collection. These include "I Heard It through the Grapevine," "Lodi," "Up Around the B ," "Who'll Stop the Rain," and of course "Bad Moon Rising." This is an excellent greatest-hits collection, and a perfect introduction to the music of a band that has been enduringly influential. --Genevieve Williams

Love this band and what a great collection to own.. the vinyl was quick to be delivered unfortunately it did have a faulty when playing but after getting in touch with them they arranged a replacement.. great customer service and with the replacement in hand it's a great quality and sound !! Would recommend owning this collection and I would highly recommend recommend the sellers
I am too young to have experienced CCR in their heyday but my parents enjoyed them and now I am too. This compilation includes all their biggest hits and from start to finish it is a quality album. The passion and clarity of John Fogerty's vocals set against the rocking drive of the accomplished band provides a really fantastic sound. I simply love this album and it has become a regular on my playlist now.
The late 60s and early 70s contained quite a mix of music, musical styles, and was dominated by British and American rock bands. Soft rock, hard rock, psychedelic rock, prog rock and heavy rock. In the main it was British bands in the vanguard. However, there were some outstanding American groups who brought a distinctive home-spun flavour to the table. My particular favourites were, and remain, Chicago whose brass section brought a different dynamic to rock.. Not only that, they survived some difficult times and went on to produce a stunning repertoire.
What have Chicago got to do with CCR you may be wondering at this point. Well it's like this. The former survived deaths and periodic changes to their line-ups; perhaps this added to their longevity and changes in style. The latter shone for a relatively short time under the direction of John Fogarty but, boy, did they produce some of the most memorable 'American' flavoured songs alongside Lynyrd Skynyrd and, slightly later, The Eagles . Had Fogarty not left at the height of their success, I wonder how much higher CCR would be on the roster of the greatest bands of all time.
You may be surprised how many of the songs you already know. Others will grow on you. There is some great guitar work.
The album was delivered early,{all the way from Pennsylvania,US.} I played it quietly as the trouble and strife was in, its Christmas day and the volume was hitting orbit, Every song is superb, it wouldn't be fair to select my favourite song, if you dont have Chronicle and am wondering, yes/no. buy it and you wont be dissapointed.
I purchased this CD to replace the LP which I bought many many years ago. The tracks are definitely CCR's best 20, and as the title indicates, are in chronological order - always a big plus with me. Another plus, the CD contains the full 11 minute version of "Grapevine", compared with the 3 minute edit on the original LP. Should you want to buy just one CCR CD, this is THE one to get.
