Creedence Clearwater Revival

[DRSmith]

I grew up listening to this band, and I just bought John Fogerty's "The Long Road Home" DVD. Since I'm sure most of you don't just listen to strictly metal, what are your opinions on them.

 

[arzachel]

thumbs up imo.

 

[Bierbommetje]

Haven't really heard much, but what I've heard is pretty damn good. John Fogerty's got an awesome voice. But it's not really my style (though I like playing it with my dad's band every once in a while).

 

[neilyoungfan]

CCR rocks...always have liked them and yeah Fogerty's voice is one of a kind....imo him, neil young, dylan, and van morrison have the most distinctive voices

 

[Rocky Raccoon]

pretty average really, much better bands from that era

 

[neilyoungfan]

well thats like your opinion man

 

[Rocky Raccoon]

well thats like your opinion man

[WeepingMoon]

CCR kicks ass i also grew up listening to their chronicals cd. twas swell.

 

[Scarlett Letterman]

[Pethical]

well thats like your opinion man

beat me to it! i wouldn't hold out for the tape deck though. or the credence!

 

[NFU]

fantastic and timeless band. one of those staple classic rock acts guaranteed to get everyone's foot tapping by the end of the song. anyone who doesnt enjoy them...probably likes soilwork.

 

[neilyoungfan]

and should end themself

 

[metal_wrath]

Shit thread

 

[metal_wrath]

Way to spell the band's name right

 

[Koi]

i dont like them...i dont like soilwork either

 

[BloodSword]

CCR was one of the first "Americana rock" bands. Musicians who took simple song structures and made them great. When music is still listened to and talked about years later, well, that's an example of "masterpieces."

 

[NFU]

Shit thread

why is this a shit thread? because CCR isnt draped in leather and spikes? fucking child.

 

[naboo]

I think they're one of the greatest rock bands of all time. They have just classica song after classic song.

 

[paradoxile]

I never heard of them before watching "Big Libowsky"...found out they're quite good though I'm not into most of American Rock...it all sounds pretty much the same except Jethro Tull that sound the same but with flutes

 

[illidurit]

tull is british WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE
