a Creedence single nobody who loves soul music even a little should groove to is "I Heard It Through the Grapevine," though. just wretched
it's not soul when CCR does it it's choogle brah
― Mr. Que, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:09 (eleven years ago) link
think the band had the best look overall

"choogle" is the sound of a man trying to keep his thoughts to himself when ccr's "grapevine" fouls the air

i have to say i prefer american beauty and workingman's dead to the first two band albums (i am the rare dead fan who doesn't give a shit about live shows, though).

2 of those pics are from the late 60s/early 70s and one is clearly late 70s early 80s

dude if you've never listened to an entire CCR album I question your ability to determine what does and what does not constitute a choogle.
Just watch this whole thing:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAVhKjsImeI

Isn't is "Born on the Bayou" that's used in Born on the Fourth of July, the scene where Cruise goes a little nuts in the bar? Great choice.

that's def true, john had a great look, but tom and stu were pretty goofy looing most of the time. doug clifford had the best beard overall.
― mizzell, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:25 (eleven years ago) link
Band had the best look although CCR get bonus points for having a drummer who looked like a sheepdog.
― I Shall Be Re-Released (Mr Andy M), Friday, 10 August 2012 18:27 (eleven years ago) link
man. incredible tremolo and what an insanely powerful drummer. those guitar passes after the chorus, awesome little jazz discrodance....that born on the bayou live would be so powerful if they'd been able to get their grampa away from the microphone but I guess he bought the amps or something
― steven fucking tyler (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Friday, 10 August 2012 18:29 (eleven years ago) link
john going for some long feedback before the last verse on that version is pretty great too, it's a stomper.
― queequeg (peter grasswich), Friday, 10 August 2012 18:32 (eleven years ago) link
agree that CCR had the best singles, hands down, but their album run from bayou country through cosmo's factory is pretty tough to beat. think i prefer green river to either of the band's first two.
― contenderizer, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:36 (eleven years ago) link
damnnn that born on the bayou is good. fogerty is such a great guitarist, everything he plays there is so dead on.
― tylerw, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:39 (eleven years ago) link
I voted CCR, but I kind of agree with aero that Fogerty's voice is a bit much. The best part of Creedence is when they just choogle like motherfuckers.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:41 (eleven years ago) link
i love Fogerty's voice!

― EZ Snappin, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:47 (eleven years ago) link
i dunno, i grew up with CCR. they belonged to my parents, so it's appropriate to me that fogerty sounds daddish. sometimes, "dad" is a p cool thing to be. also, even in their era they were nostalgic and a bit goofy. fogerty's hamminess suits that.
― contenderizer, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:48 (eleven years ago) link
one of my very earliest musical memories was being in my dad's truck, driving to my childhood home in the Blue Ridge Mountains and hearing CCR on the radio and thinking both that a) all music sounds like this and b) that the band was at the radio station playing live at that moment
― Pollopolicía (some dude), Friday, 10 August 2012 18:52 (eleven years ago) link
that is awesome
― Mr. Que, Friday, 10 August 2012 18:54 (eleven years ago) link
Fogerty's authentic frontier gibberish is one of the great innovations in rock frontman-ism, period. The guy inhabited a role like no one this side of Tom Waits.

A rhythm guitar style that employs a deliberately hard up and down stroke against the strings to simulate the motions of pistons or trains. A style made popular in the late 1960s and early 1970s by Creedence Clearwater Revival.That song meanders along until that mid-break, where, MAN! it starts to choogle!

― EZ Snappin, Friday, 10 August 2012 19:40 (eleven years ago) link
how about this"The energy implied by coinages like 'choogle' and 'ramble tamble' has more to do with vigor than with potency, more to do with simple activity than with sexuality. That distinction has its parallel in Fogerty’s politics, which are less apocalyptic (and revolutionary) than activist (and liberal) - the politics of agape rather than the politics of Eros."

i think all of fogerty's lyrics were heavy on the sexual innuendo -- you don't even want to know what he was talking about when he sang "oh lord stuck in lodi again"
