Creedence Clearwater Revival Review
Popular but not hip, basic but not shallow, rooted but not retro, Creedence Clearwater Revival distinguished themselves in the late 1960s and early 1970s through these contradictions. This six-disc set is the definitive Creedence collection, offering superbly remastered versions of all of their studio and live albums and adding a disc's worth of pre-Creedence material. The ultimate blue-collar rock band, John Fogerty and CCR found success by wholly giving in to their fascination with the American South (despite hailing from Northern California) and exploring the turf that connected R&B and country--the same turf that their heroes at Sun studios tilled at rock's birth. As the songs on the first disc prove, they hadn't always taken this approach though perhaps they should have: The first four songs from 1961 (by Tommy Fogerty and the Blue Velvets), original compositions in the classic '50s rock & roll style they loved, hold up better than subsequent Golliwogs tracks that attempt to replicate the British Invasion sound in vogue at the time. Still, the Golliwogs tracks offer hints of John Fogerty's menacing growl and biting guitar that would fully blossom later on.

When diving into CCR's entire body of work, many myths dissipate and a more well-rounded view comes into focus: the quintessential singles band that dominated AM radio was also quite an album band, releasing solid records from top to bottom even though half of the songs were saturating radio long before the LP would hit. Also, they weren't quite as far removed from their Bay Area brethren (who were reared on the same roots music) as is often stated, offering a number of long and loose jams that, while not overtly psychedelic, gave them and their fans a chance to stretch out. Without question, though, CCR were the kings of the three-minute rock single, and it's these now-ubiquitous gems--the consummate AM band now dominates FM radio--that will always define them. --Marc Greilsamer

The breadth of work on this box set is jaw dropping and if you thought owning "Chronicles 1" and "Chronicles 2" was enough, you were wrong.

CCR is probably the finest American band with the possible exception of The Ramones. This is a must own.

The ONLY CCR set you need

Re-mastered using 20 bit K2 Super Coding technology and including studeo and live tracks, this is the only set that you'll need. Every recording of the group is here plus pre CCR music from the Blue Velvets and the Golliwogs. They never sounded so good!!!

CCR box set

Creedence will always hold a special place in my heart, for two reasons.

One: They are, in their own right, amazing. They never produced a bad song, and produced only a handful of songs that were merely "good." The rest all ranged from great to unbelievably great. They are without question one of the greatest American bands--maybe the greatest American band--of the rock and roll era (i.e. since the 50's).

Two: Although every great rock and roll artist of the 60's and 70's professed a love of contemporary Soul, Gospel, and Motown artists, CCR were one giant step closer to these genres than any of their white rock and roll colleagues. CCR is the group that bridged the gap for me, a white suburban kid, and they are the reason (along with Van Morrison) that I started to take stereotypically "black" music seriously. Without CCR, I doubt I would have ever delved into the pleasures of classic records by Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, Curtis Mayfield, Smokey Robinson, and James Brown. All of these are now among my favorite artists. Much thanks to John Fogerty, for helping me figure out how to judge music not by demographic characteristics of the person making it, but on the merit of the songs themselves.

Regarding this box set: You get all 6 of their studio albums, plus a disc of early material that they performed under different names (before becoming "Creedence"), and their two excellent live albums. This is the most space-economical box set I own. Nothing flashy, just great music in a nice package. All 6 of their albums, since they were short, are fit together 2-per-CD on 3 CDs total--now that's cool. This is one of the few box sets I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone.
