John Fogerty 1975
This is really an underappreciated record. It rocks harder than most Creedence material, and three or four of these songs rate among Fogerty's best output, most notably the classic "Rockin' All Over The World" (here in its tough original rendition).
The melodic "Almost Saturday Night" and "Where The River Flows" should have been hits as well, and John Fogerty's renditions of "Lonely Teardrops" and "You Rascal You" are very good.
If you are a Creedence fan, this set won't disappoint you, and casual listeners should find a lot to like as well. The sound is a litle less "swampy", perhaps, but the qualities than made Creedence Clearwater Revival the #1 American band of the late 60s are certainly here. John Fogerty plays every instrument himself, and his guitar playing is particularly raw and gritty.
