Green River
Creedence Clearwater Revival
By the summer of 1969 Creedence Clearwater Revival was firmly ensconced as the American dance band, continuing to churn out hugely successful hit singles, four of which are on this album (released in August 1969). The title cut "Green River," along with "Commotion," "Bad Moon Rising," and "Lodi," were Top Ten singles in the classic rockabilly/R&B tradition and together made this LP the group's first #1 album on the Billboard charts. Because of a penchant for developing tight, carefully crafted material before entering the studio, CCR recorded Green River in an astounding two and a half days, after which the LP remained on the charts for 88 weeks, earning the group its second platinum LP.
John Fogerty, Tom Fogerty, Stu Cook, Doug Clifford
