THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL...Creedence Clearwater Revival  (1968)
The debut album from Creedence Clearwater Revival was released 45 years ago in 1968.  It reached number 52 on the U.S. Billboard album charts.  By this time of the 60's so many of the American rock bands were getting really heavy into the psychedelic sound, especially the bands from California.  But wait, Creedence is from California.  So many erroneously think CCR is from the South.  This record jams, starting off with a track I've always enjoyed "I Put A Spell On You."  "The Working Man" is a great guitar track, "Suzie Q" is quite cool, but if you're not in the mood it can seem a little long as it goes for eight and a half minutes.  I like how they use the backwards guitar trick in "Gloomy" and then kick it up a notch and just jam.  CCR were to put out some outstanding albums in the coming years and they still remain one of America's favorite bands.  I give this album a 3 out of 5 stars and recommend it as it is a very good debut album
