Never go for the short version of a CCR song. The album cut for this one is over 8 minutes, and there are a couple of really good live recordings over 10 minutes. You _definitely_ want to enjoy the extended jam.

The original version of this song was by Rockabilly artist Dale Hawkins & released in 1957. It had the great James Burton on guitar ( who played with both Elvis & Ricky Nelson ). So that's James' riff as played by John F. on this cover version, which is the most well-known version of the song even though it was covered by lots of people including The Rolling Stones & Johnny Rivers.

A lot of Credence fans know of Fogerty's solo work under his own name, but many missed out on the first album he did after the breakup of CCR: The Blue Ridge Rangers. Absolutely fabulous bluegrass/ traditional country album! On it Fogerty does all the vocals and plays all the instruments, but he didn't even put his name on the original release, though it was added later and is on the cd. Pure bliss.

"come over anytime, day or night. someone will hear the break, and come join you." couldnt sleep one Hot august night, and took them up on the offer, and sure enough someone joined me at 2am. they put a cassette tape in, cranked it up, and i met SUSIE Q. for the first time! what a GEM.

Per Songfacts This was co-written and originally recorded by rockabilly singer Dale Hawkins in 1956. His version hit US #27 a year later. Eleanor Broadwater and Stan Lewis wrote it with Hawkins. John Fogerty had big plans for "Susie Q" from the start. He intended for it to define CCR's distinct character. In Bad Moon Rising: The Unofficial History of Creedence Clearwater Revivial, he said, "I knew I needed to work on arranging the song so that the band would sound like Creedence Clearwater Revivial, would sound professional, mysterious and also have their own definition. The song I chose was 'Susie Q.' I decided not to wring the song myself. I decided to pick something that existed because it'd just be easier. I'd be less self-conscious about doing things."
