CCR is one of the greatest rock bands hands down. They're known for their bayou sound but they're actually from El Cerrito California, though John Fogarty's voice apparently didn't get the memo. They've put out some so many timeless classics. I would definitely recommend checking out their recording of Proud Mary at some point but my favorite from them has to be their version of I Put A Spell On You. Keep it up guys.

I grew up on the great music of the 60's-70's. CCR has always been one of my favorites. John Fogerty has one of the most unique & recognizable voices around. They don't have a bad song! Huge list of hits! "I Heard It Through The Grapevine", "Proud Mary", "I Put A Spell On You", "Fortunate Son", "Down On The Corner", "Green River", "The Midnight Special", "Susie Q", "Have You Ever Seen The Rain?", "Travelin' Band", "Run Through The Jungle", "Long As I Can See the Light", "Sweet Hitchhiker", "Bad Moon Rising" etc.

While a lot of their songs revolved around life in the deep south, especially the gulf coast (their music is often colloquially called "swamp rock"), the band itself came from the San Francisco area. They put quite a few songs into the top 40, so you have a lot of songs to choose from, and you will find that they are all bangers. I would recommend "Proud Mary", "Suzy Q", and "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" as some of their best. They also did a fantastic cover of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" that you should really hear, although I would say listen to the Marvin Gaye version first so you know what the listening public's conception of that song would have been when CCR released their cover. One last recommendation I would make is that if you find there is both a short version and a long version of a CCR song, listen to the long one. The album versions of their songs sometimes include long instrumental jams that were cut from the shortened singles versions formatted for radio play, and CCR were masters at jamming.

If i hear the short version on the radio, i turn it off in disgust but the long version is absolute gold.

It's a much shorter fior TV version of this song vs. The studio version but so great anyway. CCR was a phenomenal group and Fogarty's vocals were unique, bringing in that blues rock feel.

They have such a deep catalog, they put out so much incredible music in a handful of years. So many hits and just so much good stuff. One of America's favorite bands. And some of their songs have been in tons of movies and video games and commercials but mostly movies. When he was talking at the end there he was trying to get what I think was probably the side feel monitor active so you've always got a manager stage first and it sounded kind of haphazard, but honestly in that mix, I could pick out everything perfectly but then my ears are used to that kind of thing. But what he was doing after that was introducing their very next song and he said it was going to be a short one, and it was their iconic hit, Green River, which is the title track from one of their incredible albums. Definitely check out some studio stuff now that you know what they look like. These are recordings that just got played so much on the radio and so much at parties and other peoples houses and this song right here was an incredible song to dance to and do other fun things with.
