CCR - Born in the bayou

[diberzowl]

and John Fogerty's too big head blew this band apart and it was a shame

[pbyardh]

Miami Beach, 1970. Booker T opened for them.

[HEARTHEANGELSVOICES]

C.C.R. - AMAZING HOW GOOD THESE GUYS WERE. WISH THEY WOULD HAVE LASTED FOR EVER. THE BEATLES - THE STONES - C.C.R. THE BEST EVER.

[CreedenceAgain]

[Nellynoodlebums]

Nice to see Jesus on the drums :)

[Gawelles]

@Nellynoodlebums lol !

[chairjockey1]

You have the title misspelled.

[1982Moonbird]

Oh to have had a half ounce of Stanky Panky and not have been born in the '80's!

[Curligirl3]

PURE AWESOMENESS!

[myautomobilefunk]

this was a rock n roll band, rolling stones sucks .

[JeffBlazer74]

White boy soul. Period.

[Jnkdog]

Go get em' Johnny.... Rock on'

[carina2244]

I couldn't live long enough to figure out how John Fogerty got that big, incredible voice, or how CCR managed to put out this amazing sound, but I sure am glad that I was lucky enough to be around for it! Thank you for the post!

[MarkDroffas]

My TeeniBop90 will love this too. She was not the son Born on the Bayou, but her brother was. Thanks for the flashback memories CCR!

[1suerte]

Yes I agree! Until this song I didn't know what rock and roll really was!

[CadillacL]

First, Creedence is w/out a doubt THE American band. Also, this is the best video quality I've seen of this :)

[JGBugs]

@CadillacL - I wouldn't know who to pick from CCR, Skynyrd, Allman Brothers, Eagles or The Doors. For me they are all great. Honorable mentions also go out to the Boston, Chicago, America, Marshall Tucker Band, The Outlaws, Grateful Dead, Charlie Daniels Band, Blackfoot, Beach Boys, Grand Funk Railroad........

[CadillacL]

@JGBugs I wouldn't know either.

[BluesJoint]

;) Too Cool !

[DoRite0207]

SmokIn forever, CCR!

[TheMetal62]

I remember dancing to this at he age of 8 ! Still do !

[Jolie028]

very nice!

[amarthejimmy]

@blooze dady....truely agreed.

[plinden]

It doesn't get any better than this. It is perfect rock.

[1thegoodlife]

Holy shit thats Justin Bobby in that band AHAHAHAHA

[clemenza24]

[ldybugg56]

[AuroraKismet]

@lunafringe10 :Thanks for making me laugh on a rough day .These boys are California's finest,straight out of El Cerrito,Contra Costa County.Don't let that swamp sound fool ya ! They gigged the Bay Area hard.

[superbushrat]

CCR will rock on forever

[supersvinet1]

amazing voice he gives me goosebumps, I hear that ol' hounddawg and I ain't even from the bayou............. ;-)

[tracmag]

Can't touch this!

[teto2150]

this is some real rock and roll!!

[messageinabottle79]

easily my favorite top 10 band all-time. It's a shame that my high school listen to crap like kanye nowadays!

[musicable1000]

this is real music , today's music piece of sh%$^%$

[KALAJAN1960]

Yirapa,bueno bueno

[John2009Gauthier]

One of my all time favs! What a talent John Fogerty is.

[bluntmasterflash]

I bet the first time they threw this song together they were like...damn we're smooth.

[tracmag]

@bluntmasterflash Yea, smooth, like a big stoggie.

[centrum2k4]

Another band that dissolved way too early

[lilane4ever]

CCR THE BEST!!!

[drummss]

Balls to the wall! Great band and song!

[vwtch]

Just watched the Woodstock video of this song and Stu Cooke is playing the bass left-handed!

[MrSiolnet]

to so legende in legende bodo ostale in že deset letja ni bilo benda ki bi jim približno lahko pariral za mene so najboljši bili in bodo ostali in še to naj gdo pove kitarista ki bi lahko približno tako igral kitaro kot jo igra velikan John Fogerty

[hyperone999]

sounds mono to me

[guym2222]

Shaddup fag...

[CrosshairJack]

What a tune!

Great voice that guy has!

[gracinhamarluz]

Muito legal!!

[iownduncan]

they get John a SIG guitar or effect or something cuz he is really good

[El135o]

Hey, this sounds stereo!  But how?

[chassis1500]

Fogerty is just THAT good. Period. All of his live performances sounded like you were listening to his original album recording. Turns out, when you WRITE, ARRANGE, PRODUCE, PLAY LEAD, and SING...ALL SONGS, apparently RAW TALENT, which we just DONT see anymore...or ever before, is the answer. John Fogerty is simply the best of all time. Watch his live version of "THE NIGHT TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME" (Ray charles cover...) John WAS CCR. The other men were just harmonizers, you could find anywhere

[El135o]

Haha, yes, you're entirely correct, although I think Tom, Doug, and Stu were incredibly good players in their own right. Stu Cook said he committed ever Duck Dunn bass line to memory, and I've even met him a few times.

But my question was--how did the person who uploaded this get a stereo version of it?

[BuffaloWings99]

My Uncle Larry Claimed that he worked with Fogerty at Ball glass jar company before he made it big

[anmaba3]

immer wieder CCR!!

[Chrisdrumz]

You hear this version and compare it to ANY other versions by anyone else including "Revisited" or John with different musicians and you see that as a band Creedence was untouchable. The groove and power of this version is amazing. THAT is what Creedence was,and John,Stu or Cosmo has never come close to matching it without each other.

[VDGG94ki]

That drummer has the biggest hi-hat I have ever seen! Its a meter wide!

[El135o]

18" inches, exactly. Actually two thin crashes.

[VDGG94ki]

Thats insanely huge!!

[guym2222]

KILLER version...GREAT vocal!

[MyBabyPearl]

Good Shit

[vidadevictor]

im am from mexico gys i reealy enjoy the music pasion of the music you have. congratulations. you have everything

[rainer1980]

CCR really resented Hippies and they thought that they should offer music of quality that represented a clean image.

[mariacide]

Simply Amazing! Watching this reminds me of how lucky I was to be in a little town by the St. Croix river called Stillwater back in 1970, with my hippie parents rocking this on their AM radio! Thanks for uploading! God Bless!

[jackg12121212]

ccr, the greatest american rock & roll band of all time. wait let me rephrase that, ccr, the greatest rock & roll band of all time. hands down.

[meanmachinemarine]

the look john gives @ 3:53 is priceless!!!!!

he saying "are YOU digging this as much as we are"...CCR lives forever...

>just like "THE CORPS

[bigbeefonyourface08]

im 18 and this band is the closest thing to music

nowadays all you need is a voice and you can sing or rap or do both behind some sythesizer

and then when you go see your favorite "artist"

it sounds like nails on a chalkboard

these guys were AND STILL ARE THE REAL THING

[canadiantimberwolf1]

not bad for a guy who was born in California singing Bayou tunes and then too be associated with it.I hear CCR when I was for the first time with the COSMO FACTORY album.Loved the band ever since and that had to be in the late 60's early 70's mking me bout 10 to 12 years old them..HOLY COW MAN,I'm 50 now,where has the time gone...all I can say with this music it was fun bak then.

[canadiantimberwolf1]

sorry for the spelling,but growing up then.For those of us who are in thier late 40's and early 50's know what I mean.The kids today haven't got a clue.Long before computers and CD's we had 45's and albums with stereos that were really cool.Not as good as todays stuff,but hey..it was a great time and it just didn't matter.

[angela2942]

i can relate i'm only in my early 30's but my mom raised me on this kind of music and on the back of Harley.. i remember camping- bike runs- BBQ'-Pitt fires and kegs- now days these Kidd's want electronic and McDonald's lol..they will never get real music

[rgbandITA]

hey, i'm turning 27 and I'm from Italy, but I'm a lucky man! I've heard this music since I was a little child thanks to my parents...and I feel more like I'm a man who lived these years in some way than a guy who is living today with all this sh+t around. Cheers!

[revoltncock]

Don't worry Canadiantimberwolf I began a vinyl collection and even some 8 tracks so, I'll be jammin to some Fogerty pretty much every day till the day I die. I think as the technology changes so does the music, but great music like CCR will have no problem staying alive. Oh and were all young at heart!!

[stalbot46]

Live @ London Royal Albert Hall their first UK gig in 1969 or 70 , was there & this was the opener ....my ears have not been the same since JFs Rickenbacker reverb`ed them.Swamp Rock masterpiece.

[soundspur]

Around 69/70 this was the first song I heard by CCR: It blew my mind! I mean from the very start how Fogerty screams out those Lyrics! And that unique twangy sound, & CCR had me hooked! Just blast out the (clearer) studio version thru your Sound System & enjoy

[meanmachinemarine]

YOU CAN DO IT !!!!! The Waterboy CCR ROCKS !!!!

[thrbrdrider]

friggin' beautiful

[joelubbock]

"now that's some bad shit man"

[dontletusgetsick]

I can not help but wonder how these guys from San Francisco, Calif came up with this Deep South Blues sound. It is beautiful music.

[KK42069]

Acid.

[salmista347]

My dad is black and he tells me that this song takes him back to New Orleans where lived,great song this guys made southern rock go mainstream,great sound and the rythm is unique and makes you shake your head to it even if you don't want to.CCR best band ever

[420DAILY]

ccr was from cali

[gotzy77]

one of the best song ever

[huggablehowie]

McCain, Obama, WTF, I ain't no fortunate son,

so no opinion on em bro! -- but I love CCR and I was genuinely born on the bayou, New Orleans. There be good people down there in Bayou country.

[Darsh092]

Hey man go back to the bayou, you racist hick. This is a great song

Oh yeah and Obama is better.

[Justinak74]

fuck you obama loven nigger

[robin14669]

Great live version!

[birtdiker]

best song ever fuck all u fagit NON-americans white power

p.s. mcCain 08 nra 4life

[callmemoonchild]

umm your joking right?

[UnnamedMoose]

wish world was cleared of intolerant fools like you. period

[feliao77]

tremenda interpretacion,buenisima

[BloozeDaddy76]

The Beatles had a bigger impact on the world, and the Rolling Stone slasted a whole lot longer, but.....

No other band played pure rock n' roll better than CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL!

[3larry13]

@BloozeDaddy76  DITTO!!!

[HEARTHEANGELSVOICES]

@BloozeDaddy76 - WHY DID THE ROLLING SLAST SO LONG? DO YOU KNOW?

[AustriaAirlines]

jea

[thrbrdrider]

gorgeous......

[54spiritedwill54]

this is real rock

[L324RT12]

The band took its name from Credence Nuball, a friend of Tom Fogerty; "clearwater", a reference to the band's concern for ecology (from a beer commercial of the day); and "revival", which spoke to the four members' re-commitment to their band.

[dammiel78]

elapcrema: el leon cree que todos son de su condicion pendejo, con ese nick que tienes de seguro tu si te vienes por el culo, yo, como buena mujer, me vengo por la vagina...repito: pendejo.

[dammiel78]

acabo de tener un orgasmo viendoa estos genios del rock¡¡¡

[elapcrema]

solo que los hayas visto por el culo cabron

[jadelac1]

Otra rola de miedo de este super grupo te imaginas que fue ver, escuchar esta rola en vivo con el grupo original y el resto de todos sus exitos

[RMCDOXX0]

i remember first hearing this when i was about seven-eight years old, i was watching the very old and extremely budgetted horror comic flick "SWAMP THING" LOL old memories :)

[sonor23]

Too many cymbal crashing going on . Great song , though prefer the album version .

[kH0pSu3Y]

pause it at 1:12.Scary.

Lol the drummer looks gaytarded all the way through the way he moves his arms.Really good though.

[sky0725]

I love their band name- Creedence Clearwater Revival- I wonder how they came up w/ it. Does anyone know?

[gunnerdan]

i saw in this video on their 1970 concert @ oakland that they had a friend named creedence, they were enviromentalists, hence clearwater, and no clue where revival came from

[IronSteeI]

I can't believe how good they sound live. They're one of the best all-time bands, definately.

[muddyjenkins]

incredible. CCR is mind blowing. god i love this band. nothing like them will ever exist again in my mind.

i wish the sound quality was a bit better on the vid though. the symbols were a bit piercing.

[eddieballer]

Guys is not about rock and rap. The music CCR played is the best music that will ever exist. Nowdays is all about sound effects and fancy videos. CCR the best band that will ever exist.

[latinlightning08]

CCR - one of the best. If not, the best.

Its a shame though how things turned after the break-up. If only things would have turned out differently we might of heard at least a few more gems from some real talented musicians.

[howinthehell]

you wont find any better than CCR. Period

[burge104]

this is real rock right here...

[mbtemlett]

ccr rule, the song just flows..and john's voice is so powerful - I'm sorry but the Foo Fighters version is not anywhere near...

[basketballsuperstar1]

yeah me too.i wish rap hadnt started.i hate rap.i go to school with people who hate rock and love rap.

[dogbutterfly]

oh man, the feeeeel!

[makemoneyonlinehome]

Doug Clifford on Drums, great jammin' by Creedence. Are there any performers around today that can take the stage move people like this performance does? No Cheap, High Tech Gimmicks to hide behind back then either.

[caryarcar]

Powerful, I miss this type of music...
