    Lead singer is John Fogerty. He is from California. I’m from Louisiana and it is amazing how he gets the vibe of the swamp and culture of Louisiana.

      From Louisiana here too, but this band is from central California. They have lots of other great songs as well. In their tree year recording career, it's difficult to find a single song of theirs that hasn't been played on radio over the past 50 years and still counting. I love the originals, but their covers of "Heard it Through the Grapevine" and "I put a spell on you" are all time favorites of mine. Oh yeah, and don't forget that they're the ones that wrote "Proud Mary" that Tina Turner covered and put her on the map.

      As per Wikipedia "hoodoo" says... Hoodoo is a set of spiritual practices, traditions, and beliefs created by enslaved Africans in North America that were held in secret from slaveholders. Hoodoo evolved from various traditional African religions and practices, and in the American South, incorporated various elements of indigenous botanical knowledge. In the Gullah South Carolina Lowcountry, Hoodoo is also known as "Lowcountry Voodoo." Following the Great Migration of African-Americans, Hoodoo spread throughout the United States. Practitioners of Hoodoo are called rootworkers, conjure doctors, conjure man or conjure woman, and Hoodoo doctors. Regional synonyms for hoodoo include conjure or rootwork.
      Background
      Approximately 388,000 enslaved Africans from various ethnic groups were transported to North America from the 17th to 19th centuries as part of the transatlantic slave trade. They were Kongo, Igbo, Akan, Mandé, Yoruba, Fon, Ewe, and Fulbe, among many others. After the arrival of diverse African ethnic groups to the United States, Hoodoo was created by enslaved African Americans for their spiritual survival as a form of resistance against slavery. "Because the African American community did not have the same medical or psychological aids as the European American society, its members were forced to rely on each other for survival." As a result, free and enslaved African Americans relied on Hoodoo for their protection.

    You two kids are adorable, and it's so gratifying for an old geezer like me to see that you recognize the enduring power of classic rock when you hear it.
    Other CCR tunes you should check out (all written by John Fogerty) include: Proud Mary, Green River, Lodi, Keep on Chooglin', Down on the Corner, It Came Out of the Sky, Travelin' Band, Up Around the Bend, Lookin' Out My Back Door, Who'll Stop the Rain, Long As I Can See the Light, Have You Ever Seen the Rain, Hey Tonight, Sweet Hitchhiker, Someday Never Comes.
    Then listen to John Fogerty's solo tunes (every bit as good), including: Rockin' All Over the World, Centerfield, Rock & Roll Girls, Southern Streamline, Hot Rod Heart, 110 in the Shade, The Old Man Down the Road, Big Train (from Memphis), Sugar Sugar, I Will Walk with You, The Joy of My Life, Change in the Weather, Almost Saturday Night, Don't You Wish It Was True, Mystic Highway, Weepin' in the Promised Land.
    There -- that should keep you two busy for a while -- and in throes of ecstasy! A musician has to get up pretty early in the morning to write or sing a better rock & roll song than any of the timeless treasures from the legendary Foge!

    I grew up with these men. I have heard their entire song book. I am a trained musician (guitar). I have loved and heard so many rock bands over several decades, and I have to say that CCR is the greatest of all time. I used to call it "River Rock" . Fogarty's blues edge incorporated into the Rock tempo is brilliant. The guitar is molten rock. No one can sample their music and make it sound like this. Thank you for your appreciation for this pure rock magic. And can I also say that Soul and Blues arrived through the historic black ethos, but Soul and Blues no longer has a color bearier. It reaches and teaches everyone. God bless. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.

    For me CCR's most iconic song is "Lookin' Out My Back Door", closely followed by "Bad Moon Rising". Me being born in 1964, everyone of their songs takes me down Memory Lane . . . In my youth they used to play their songs on German radio all the time and I could never stop myself from singing along their catchy tunes (still can't up to this day).

They did a lot of Vietnam protest songs and also some of their music was put to Vietnam War footage video. Check it out. There were a lot of war protest songs during the 60s and 70s so keep that in mind. A lot of bands made protest songs that were very popular. I have just started following your squad but have been watching you on TH-cam for quite a while. You have posted some of the best bands and singers from that era and IMO was the best era of music of all time. CCR was an extremely popular band and had many #1 hits. Great Band.
