FANTASTIC PICK from you guys with this one! Easily one of the more fun videos we’ve recorded! Have a great weekend guys!! 🔥🤟🏻
Do CCR's "Graveyard Train". many youtubers don't know this one because they are from the wrong generation - take it from an old guy (60+) this track is fire.
lol reminds me of when 8-track was state of the art. I was in my early teens. Sorry you guys missed it those were much better times except for no internet...I Noticed again you liking that bass. So again I'll recommend Grand Funk "Black Licorice" for some killer bass lines (and a funny lookin' bass player). Oh yteah it's all around a great song. The drummer is singing and never met a roll he doesn't like! Check this vid out I can't wait for your reaction! th-cam.com/video/wiEy3nbmjd4/w-d-xo.html
🍄🎸🎸Real Cool🎸🌿 Couldn't wait to see what u Picked 🌿Good one🌿 Green River. Should be next by CCR😃😃
Dudes! I knew you'd love that one! That's how its done!
Swampy....night driving Song..Cool🎤🎤😁❇️🎶🎶🍄🎸
John Fogerty, the only guy to be accused of plagiarizing himself. He won in Court.
Got to see him in an intimate theater after getting the rights back to do his own songs-Great show.
Sued to get his own words back Sad
I remember that case.. what an eye roll
😂😂😂
He was sued for writing new lyrics to a song that was 75% owned by someone else. The Old Man Down The Road is just Run Through The Jungle with shitty lyrics. John Fogerty is only a victim to his own ego.
John Fogerty played lead guitar, sang lead and wrote and produced the music. A true renaissance man!
navyman1984 And he got screwed by his label.😡😡😡
Thank You!!! Everyone should know...
And it drove his brother nuts with envy
and lets not forget his band tried to take it from him....
He also has one of the greatest rock n roll voices of all time.
This why this album went platinum in 1969-70. Still sounds great. John Fogerty’s incredible voice.
Your reaction to this fabulous song that's over 50 years old is PRICELESS!!! 😁💖
I got the original single. A side is proud Mary, B side is born on the bayou.
I love there reaction. One of my all-time favorite songs. I have the original single. A side is proud. Mary, B side is born on the bayou.
Totally 💯
There is NO song like this. Even Little Richard was like YEAHHH that's the number!
You better " Run Through The Jungle", and don't look back.
CCR suggestion: I put a spell on you. You'll feel it in your bones, dudes...
Also, keep on chooglin'...
Oooo that's a legendary tune!!
Yes! There's a great video out there of them singing. So good.
bazzer124 I was thinking the same thing. Fogerty's vocals are raw and savage.
yep.
As soon as the guitar riff came in you guys knew what they were gonna do. And they still did it better then you had imagined. It is rare when a song totally exceeds your expectations. But it's what CCR does best. That was a great reaction!
Written in El Cerrito, California by a kid that had never seen a bayou in his life. You would never guess; it's done so well.
yep true
Willie and The Poorboys!
By a guy not even age 24 yet!
The group also lived in West Oakland before they acquired fame and the heartaches that came with it
This band was actually based in El Cerrito, California....up the road from Oakland
If you liked the swampy feel here, you HAVE to listen to CCR's "Run through the Jungle".
I'd follow that with "The Old Man Down the Road" from solo Fogerty. He actually got sued by CCR's label for plagiarizing his own song.
Yes yes....music that defined my generation...
Marathon Suzie Q. Best cowbell since BTO.
Yesss!
Yes and lighten the swamp theme with Jim Stafford's Swamp Witch!!!!!
You want the CCR drumming apex: listen to their version of Heard it through the Grapevine, and make sure you have the full length version with the extended outro jam. Absolute lesson in rock and roll rhythm
Oh, you're right on the money! Beyond great... CCR has a catalog of such great music (even the covers, no?). Great weekend to you!
Dan knows drums.
And the bass on their version is amazing! A&A will love it!!!
Oooh yes! Excellent choice! I'll second that motion!
perfect suggestion
John Fogerty sells that swamp vibe with his amazing pipes, hard to believe he’s from the East Bay of California :)
Yup, CCR was from Berkeley.
Well they're was a lot of Southern immigration to California in that time
@@joelspringman7748 Delta
In my household CCR was always around and I was hearing from a very early age and when I got old enough to be able to read album liner notes I was shocked to find out that they were from the Bay Area! Shocked! I had just assumed all along that they were the Deep South - Louisiana or Mississippi or something
@@joelspringman7748 El Cerrito, actually. About a 30 minute drive from my town.
CCR..one of the best rock bands ever..never to be duplicated..classic .thanks guys
When this was new, NOBODY believed it was four white kids from Berkeley, Ca.
El Cerrito actually... 😎 Jeff Fogerty
@@jefffogertymusic2023 Not Lodi?
I was driving in SF one day back in c.2003-4 and a DJ came on after Suzie Q and said: "And there's John Fogerty, wailing away like no white man has a right to." I always loved that.
@@filthyswit LOL..I lived in Lodi, not a bad place.
@@teller1290 Dale Hawkins ....used to wait for Suzi Q long unedited cut to come late at night with my 7 transistor radio earplug in under my pillow
John Fogerty is one of the best songwriters in Rock n Roll. He produced many hits and his vocals always fit perfectly with the lyrical content. He is a master of his craft.
Tally Kev ...IS a master of his craft.
@@ellbee2 Yes! my bad
In only five years CCR provided a multi-generation legacy!
@@scoutfinch7727 Pretty amazing when you think about it.
They had multiple #2 top hits. Never a #1.
the mud & grit is just dripping off his vocals~
I never get tired of this song 😊
“That cowbell makes it!” So in other words... Christopher Walken was right all along! “I gotta have more cowbell!” “Ive got a fever and the only prescription... is more cowbell!!!!!”
🤣🤣🤣
Really Explore the space with the cowbell.....
Too funny!!! 🤣 🤣🤣🤣✌
Pretty cool how the cowbell moved from one ear to the other between 4:30 and 5:30.
More cowbell …. Lol. Few know what we mean that are not our age. Keep this music alive guys. Please never let it die. I know my kids grew up on classic rock along with us. Went to concerts when they grew up with us. Keep on rocking guys. And Andy, keep that beautiful head of hair. My God most women are envious. ❤️👍🏻
Similarly swampy? Try Mountain's Mississippi Queen.
ABSOLUTELY
What she said!
@@briansd2772 Yes.
Yes! Leslie West slays it.
No not really, like totally wrong. Tremelo is swampy. Miss queen has none.
You guys NEED to hear Run Through the Jungle..... if you haven't already.
"Travelin' Band", "It Came Out of the Sky", "Susie Q", and SO many others!
Creedence and the Doobies two of the best kick ass bands ever.
1969 was a trip, trust me.
Pre Pro Tools!! John Fogerty has one of the most unmistakable voices in rock history!
Gives you chills on this one. Way cool!
Wanna trip out? Try Soul Sacrifice from Santana
Can you believe this was the B side of a single - CCR singles growing up always had awesome songs on BOTH sides of the 45 - amen
I know I'm late to the party, but I don't think I've ever seen you guys have so much fun during a song.
Great song and reaction.
Alex & Andy, I can't stress this enough!! CCR "I Put A Spell On You". Guitars, vocals, drums, bass are all bangin!!! Do your boy in Tampa, and yourself, a solid and do this song. You'll thank me later!!
What he said
And the joss stone version. Video has great visual value too 😁
Another great suggestion! Let's face it, CCR is a band who has no bad songs. I keep upvoting all! haha
Got to do "I Put On a Spell On You", so good.
Put a spell on you a cover of course.
Check the original by "Sceamin Jay Hawkins!"!!
Please give Three Dog Night's song "Mama Told Me (Not to Come)" a listen!
That's a good one.
Another excellent suggestion, although I'm a huge fan of "Try a Little Tenderness!" Three Dog Night is definitely worth a listen. Brings back great memories.
Written by Randy Newman!
@@gregrambo606 yes!! Randy can do no wrong!
@@frankdavis6438 It's a shame they aren't at the forefront of conversation more often!
CCR was one of my dad’s favorite bands. I so grew up listening to them. Great tunes!
fantastic band
I have the original single . A side is proud mary, B side is born on the bayou. One of my all-time favorites.
ha, i am 67 years old and i bought all the albums, records, cassettes and cd s. over the years they made a lot of money off of me.
I was in a “band” when I was 11 and song was he pending to this song
Sorry. High high. Trying to make a point. If anyone finds it let me know
I grew up in the 70's 80's and this is what we heard on the radio every day. The oldies was 50's-60's if you turned the radio dial. All amazing music.
Still waiting for CCR Lookin out my Backdoor...such a fun song
And Centerfield!
You're gonna be reacting to CCR for a long time because they have such a large catalog of bangers. Enjoy!
Fogerty was the master at writing these 3 minute slabs of simple lyrical and sonic perfection.
Somehow he made a group of San Francisco boys sound like they came out of the Deep South.
Yes, I’m Cajun so, this is a forever in my playlist. Born in Lake Charles, LA...later moved to Texas...BEST OF BOTH WORLDS.
Miss magnolia, sisterborn! Lake Charles Memorial hospital! I loved the way they reacted to this! And yes I I claim it as my song my momma was an okie yet my dad was a Ragin Cajun.😉so when I hear it I turn it up and yes my children son 30 & daughter 22 definitely knows that part of their history. Cheers to you my dear
Moved to Texas. Let me guess....Beaumont?
@@pilotboy3328 Nope, Katy.
Well I'm a real cajun from southwest Louisiana and John Fogerty Is my all time favorite, such a great talent
I am from Shreveport. This was a great song we played over and over at LSU frat parties. Susie Q was another one that got people moving. Geaux Tigers!
I was a little concerned when, after your last CCR reaction vid, a lot of people (me included) were asking for "Born On The Bayou" next. It's because of its simplistic, don't take it too seriously vibe that I wondered if you two would find it not interesting enough, maybe too repetitious.
Is it because I've been hearing it for over fifty years and don't really sit down and take everything in anymore? I still hear all of the cool nuances it dishes up, from the cowbell to John's little three syllable vocalizations at the end of the verses. But maybe I take all of that for granted, now.
After watching you two have eargasms over it, and bobbing my head along with yours, I'm starting to get that certain tingle that washes through you when something special is played.
This song is something special.
So agree. Ive been listening to SO many of these songs all my life that I suppose it's easy to start taking them for granted. But then watching A&A discovering them for the first time is simultaneously reminding ME just how great they truly are and becomes ALMOST like hearing them again for the first time myself.
You took the words right out of my mouth. Having grown up with this music in the air, "tingle" is the WORD!
Well said! Amen to all the above! This song is truly something special! :-)
Yes it is my friend. Yes it is!
Guys, that was normal music on the radio when I was growing up. Music now sucks haha
Amen!
Not all of it though, you just have to look in the right places and maybe open up a bit. There's such a wealth of stuff out there waiting for an audience, especially in the underground scenes (Sun Kil Moon, Father John Misty, and maybe even Mac DeMarco), and even a bunch of stuff from the past as well that goes overlooked sadly (like the Velvet Underground, Captain Beefheart, or Can). Cheers!
Jinjer is my current favorite
H4RDC0R3 What Ed is saying is that back in the day great music was on the radio all the time without having to 'go look for it' which is the standard reply these days. Give me one song by one of the bands that need to be searched for that is as good as this song by CCR and I will concede to you. Just type the band and song below.
So true. It was something in the air back than
These dudes are from California and you would sware they’re from my home. South Louisiana Cajun country! They have many songs about Louisiana bayous!
Same situation with the Doobie Brothers.
Like the Eagles singing about California and not being from there.
Funny thing is with the song Lodi it just sounds to most people like its probably another song about the south but if you're from Northern California and have drive around some at all you'll just be like oh, thats south of Sacramento lol (Green River is also about a place kinda near Sacramento).
From Berkeley/El Cerrito.
For some reason it has really kind of bothered me since I learned that CCR wasn’t from somewhere in the south. Still amazing music but it just kinda sticks in my craw. Would be like if The Beach Boys were from Chicago or something
This is just the best, rock solid, badass piece of music CCR ever did! Still gives me shivers and don't even mention John Fogerty's vocals!!
Run Through the Jungle was pretty awesome!
@@kathycuster1714Run Through The Jungle is essentially this song with different lyrics.
If you love the swamp vibe, Doobie Brothers' "Black Water" is key.
But only half as good as their swampy tune, Dark Eyed Cajun, Woman. You can almost feel the cold mud squeezing between your toes in the cold night air.
And if you want more Creedence, you MUST try Green River & Run Through The Jungle. Honestly, BANGERS.
They did an INCREDIBLE version (zoom?) early in the covid weirdness.
eta: John Fogerty did some great online performances during the lockdown as well. Great musicians all!
Steely Dan is a group worth exploring. "Do It Again" and "Reeling In The Years" are classic early '70s rock at its finest.
Peg
I agree... They already know Pink Floyd were master musicians... Steely Dan is cut from the same cloth
Steely Dan is a whole other rabbit hole to get lost in. It's not a band so much as a musical collective. It's like Fagen and Becker said "Who is the best guy I can get to do this part on this song". Steve Gadd's drums on Aja. Larry Carlton's guitars on Babylon Sister. Bernard freaking Purdie on Babylon Sister. Michael McDonald's backing vocals on Peg. So much good stuff there. These guys talk about getting lost in the sauce. Steely Dan is all sauce.
Jason Remy I need to second everything Jason said. Please jump into the sauce that is Steely Dan.
I will add My Old School!
You guys have so much fun! You've restored my faith in the youth of today. Like many, I grew up listening to music like this when it was new. So nice to see young guys diggin' it today. When you get to be my age, I hope you find 2 just like you who will appreciate some of the music you grew up with.
I pray they keep the music alive. I grew up listening to it. 60’s 70’s mostly and my kids will attend concerts with us. They love the classic rock. There will NEVER be music like this again. I have faith in you guys. Love every minute of your reactions. ❤️❤️❤️
I feel the same way. I feel like a grandmama to these bright and talented kids. ❤
Amen!
We were SO fortunate to grow up in the 70's!
"Whatever you think is going to happen, it's going to be better" -- that's CCR
Run through the Jungle
His voice is one of my favorite in music though, it's just so gritty and raw
Yes!
Doobie Brothers Black Water
Robert Wood Absolutely, that’s what I was thinking!!
YES
Concur
Ten Years After - "I'd love to change the world". Lyrics, guitar and percussion are so good in this one. Anti-war and anti-political song. Check this one out. Cheers from Poland.
Robert Wood also a great suggestion!!!
CCR is THE American Band that give our country its own voice in Rock. Their sound is so atmospheric and paints mental images.
Good pick.
I grew up on the bayou, & this song gets the feel. Fogerty has a lot of fans in Bayou Country.
Three Dog Night song 'Mama Told me Not To Come' is a lot of fun and good ole rock n roll
"Green River" is another good swamp-themed song and a must-listen.
Mouse Shadow yes! My favorite CCR song!
Absolutely!!
Mouse Shadow Do Green River, guys!
Green River is a masterpiece.
You're hearing what my generation adored. These guys were on a par with the Beatles for popularity.
He’s still singing.. live - he’s in Las Vegas often. He’s been posting videos from his home studio, with his kids, who all tour with him. He still sounds great!
Yep. I absolutely love his album Deja Vu All Over Again. Some of it sounds *exactly* like CCR. Wicked Old Witch, In the Garden, Nobody's Here Anymore. Great stuff!
Guys. You talk about guitar tone all the time. How about Black Magic Woman by Santana? There is no sweeter tone on Earth. You can pick him out from a million other guitarists immediately.
Excellent suggestion, although to fully appreciate it, you should listen to the whole of the first side of the Abraxas album - it sounds so much better that way.
Need some Santana! My vote. "She's Not There" (cover, but better!)
@Trevor Aton Singing Winds, Crying Beasts!
Or "Evil Ways" or "Oye Como Va" or "Samba Pa Ti" the list long.
A&A - Oh, Dude!! Lmao. This was beyond fun!!! It is perfection & am so thrilled you had such a blast w/ this. There's no one like Fogerty's guitar & vocals. Solid musicians/music!! Have a fantastic weekend, fellas! Still lmao! -- Lisa :)
Susie Q and Heard it Through the Grapevine.
Oh, and top off the decanter cuz they’re both marathons.
I got to meet Dale Hawkins after a small gig. He wrote Susie Q and had the original hit back in '58. Super nice guy.
CCR is so past rock and roll. It is pure American music. All aspects. 😊
Considered by many as one of their best grooves .... everything was just perfect .
If you like that one then I Put A Spell On You is next level.
Another band I think you'll love is Bad Company. Some of their songs: Bad Company, Feel Like Making Love, Shooting Star, Ready for Love, Can't Get Enough of Your Love....(Can you tell I like Bad Company?)
I second that.
Forgot silver blue and gold
The vocals are what makes this a historically great song. Good old American Rock and Roll !!
The smiles on your faces says it all.
I remember when that song came out, I listened to it on a 45, the good old days. Still great 50 years later
I literally just picked up a 45 of this song at a rummage store about a week ago. maybe it was yours! :)
@@gabriel38g Nah, man... Ya KNOW Donald's still got his! ;-]
Highly recommend "Down On The Corner" and their cover "I Put A Spell On You"
Also Lookin Out My Back Door
I love the moves by Alex after hearing the cow bell at 3:45
They have an 11 minute version of I heard it through the grapevine that is unbelievable. Bass and drums are relentless and drive the song start to finish.
Yeah CCR rocks for sure
more please"hey tonight","I put a spell on you","lookin out my backdoor","green river","Lodi","put a candle in the window", to name a few. "Swamp music"by Lynyrd Skynyrd or"legend of Woolley swamp" by Charlie Daniels are also fantastic and worth a listen and reaction ☮️
Gary Kelly It IS time for some Charlie Daniels. Also, nice choices of CCR songs.👍
th-cam.com/video/L5V9nK7-OkM-/w-d-xo.html--one of my favorites
"Suzy Q" is the next swampiest, hands down.
Great list. I'd start with Green River but add Suzie Q too.
Gary Kelly it’s not “ put a candle in the window” it’s called “as long as I can see the light” fyi
I will always recommend I Put A Spell On You. Really showcases John's vocal talents, and all of the band's talents on their respective instruments.
I giggled throughout this video, your reactions to everything was hilarious and perfectly apt. 😅
Steppenwolf: "Born to be Wild"
And Magic Carpet Ride,Snowblind Friend and The Pusher. Phenomenal stuff.
If you read more about John Fogerty and CCR, particularly from his autobiography, “Fortunate Son”, you would know that this guy drove this band to practice their asses off until the song was played exactly like he wanted. So he cared big time about how and what was being recorded. It was all the practice before recording that made it sound effortless.
So true !
You guys really need to do "Run Through The Jungle" next. A great classic rock track about the Vietnam War. You gotta check it out.
John Fogerty is an honorary Southerner. In fact he is more Southern than most of the people living in the South now. Along with Patrick Simmons and Tommy Johnston of the Doobie Brothers, I was proud to dub them Honorary Sons of The South!
If you like this try 'Mamma told me not to come' by Three Dog Night.
Ian Ross
3 Dog night live versions are just so much fun.
I was recently listening to their old hits, forgot how good they were!
One - Three Dog Knight, Eli’s Coming - Three Dog Knight
Tony Joe White did “Poke Salad Annie” ? and Dr John did a few. “ i Walk on Gilded Splinters”, “If i Don’t do it Somebody Else Will”.
I’ve listened to CCR for decades and love everything they did. However, during your reaction video, I rediscovered the tremendous bass on this song. It completed the song.
I grew up with my mom playing this album...i just assumed they were cajun or something.Then as a young adult i found out they are from my area in California lol.
@Hillary's emails to Lorne 😄😄
"Born on the Bayou" of El Cerrito, California - East Bay town between Berkeley and Richmond, is where he went to high school. I grew up just a few miles down the road from there. Makes me laugh every time. :-)
@@dwc1964 lol i know the area well❤
@Hillary's emails to Lorne Fogerty really sells it!
Fun Fact: even though a lot of CCR songs are set in the South, the band actually formed in California.
CCR worth a deep dive. They have so much great music.
This reaction was more than we could ask for. 😂😂😂 Just like the song. I was a freshman in High School !! Omg. How did I get this old. Honestly, your brain tells you your the same, but the body says differently. I’m glad I got to grow up in times of some of the best music ever. Please promise me you won’t let it die. 🙏. This era was true music. 60’s 70’s. some of the best. Dive deep you guys. You won’t regret it. With all honesty I can’t compare much of it to today but a few. There are some great vocalist, but hands down I’m glad I lived the days when you KNEW the nest hit was good and waited for it. I have an open mind and today I wonder if and when will come a hit that everyone would agree upon. Silk Sonic is great ! But they sound like a throwback with fantastic vocals from Bruno Mars and Anderson Pakk is a great today sound. Keep on rocking guys. ❤️❤️❤️💫💫💫
You guys would love the James Gang. “Walk Away”
Or “Funk #49”.
William Brocklehurst yessssssssss! Get into some early Joe Walsh! Also Rocky Mountain Way!
Yep. I recommended that song too.
Yes to both!
You guys haven't heard "Funk #49"?
Get back to those chairs immediately!
Dude! Ashes, the rain and I! What a superb track that is
When I was nine, my family was camping at Devils Lake in Wisconsin. My sister made friends with some guys who promptly came to our campfire, and one with guitar asked if we wanted to hear a song. He started playing and singing Proud Mary and I have been a CCR fan ever since!
Used to hike and rock climb at Devil's Lake all the time. Hop on the ferry and cruise on into the park for a day of sunshine.
The last time I was there, about twenty years ago, my girlfriend and me were sitting with our feet dangling over the edge of the bluff, taking in the beautiful view, when a hawk came gliding by not more that ten feet in front of us. It gave the tips of its wings just a little flap, but we both heard it. Gave us chills.
@@Drummingvulture I loved those bluffs! Seen plenty of Turkey Vultures! The sad thing is, if a couple of young adults experienced today what you saw then, they would only get a glimpse because they would be trying to get their phones out to take a picture. I live in Vegas now, and in a half hour I can be at Red Rock Canyon. I was there yesterday hiking a mountain I know well. I get to the top to find two twenty-somethings BOTH on their phones! One talking loudly and the other sitting on a rock and watching a vid, instead of looking at the incredible scenery! If you are ever in Vegas, it is worth spending a day out there (just don't try to do it in the summer months!).
This is the way music I supposed to sound, sad we don’t have this kind of stuff anymore. Real musicians and songwriters. Check out “long as I see the light”
I got the original single. The a side is proud Mary and b side is born on the bayou.
Pure Joy! Love Creedence & John Fogherty is King ❤️
I live in Clearwater Fla. and C.C.R. is some of the best. Green River would be a good Swamp Song.
Oldsmar FLA here. CCR, along with Tony Joe White, fits this awful Florida humidity like a glove. My dad listened to this stuff all the time when I was growing up, and my son is probably going to have the same story when he gets older. Timeless stuff.
For another CCR song... I thing you guys would dig "Midnight Special"
They didn't realize till we began coming home from Vietnam, this is some of the stuff we listed to, the other by them Run Through the Jungle, their version of Susie Q is way different. Not like so many who ran up to Canada to dodge the draft. We got into it before JFK, he was going to pull us out, then LBJ took over after Kennedy was killed, and this war was part of the reason. But LBJ increased the American Troops by hundreds of thousands while in office. The problem was, we could have easily won that war, but LBJ wanted it to keep going, the longer the war, the more money the US made in goods and weapon sales. For us, we were just following orders, when I got home, I made sure everyone know LBJ was a war criminal, and we told the world just that.
@@txsmalltown5135 In 1948 LBJ was campaigning for senator by helicopter. The helicopter needed an overhaul and LBJ was out of money. Bell helicopter Gave him a new heli to use with pilot and mechanic. He returned the favor by buying 6,000 Bell helicopters for the war. And I believe he had a hand in JFK's Death.
You though the hawk JFK was going to pull us out?
@@docsavage8640 Look, I am not a Democrat, but JFK was not a Hawk, he signaled to the Joint Chiefs he wanted to get out of Nam before we lost control. LBJ was in it for the money and the Military Industrial Complex which Ike Eisenhower warned all Americans about. No one listened, not we'll never get rid of them. If he was a Hawk, he would not have stopped the US War Machine from joining the Bay of Pigs invasion, and overthrown Castro....Which would have brought the Soviets into the mix.
The more things change… the more the things stay the same. In a way, because of LBJ, we’re still in the mess that we’re in today. It’s just a continuation of what happened in the past. I personally think that JFK was shot because he was putting us on a gold standard (LBJ, Nixon, & Bush literally NAILED that), & I think that there was a mafia connection with the CIA & the mob. JFK a year before he was killed put a lot of taxes on the unions, & I don’t think that went over too well. But looking at what’s happening in 2020-21, it’s almost like a repeat of what was happening then (in some ways) with the posturing & everything else.
My uncle was figthing in Vietnam. Sadly he past away about a year ago. He died of cancer caused by agent orange. In my opinion this war didn't make any sense.
CCR were a great swamp rock band.... all these old bands have such great depth....
That was sooo much fun to watch. I'm still grinning. 😁
@Karen Kriske Hoffman
😁😁😁
❤️❤️❤️❤️
CCR's Run Through The Jungle
Love you guys. One minor suggestion: whenever you in a toast/cheers, you must drink. You may not clink glasses then put yours down without a drink. Bad juju, long haired guy.
Lol!
Lmao facts
LOL! True!
funny, these are the songs of my life. I thought all music was this epic, I did not know I was living thru the best of rock and roll!
Dudes, "PROUD MARY!!!" then follow that with "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" (long version)
Black Magic Woman by Santana!
If you like your "grits dirtied up with some hot steamy gravy" like this, I only got two words for ya: MUSCLE. SHOALS.
I am SO proud and so glad to be a Baby Boomer. People born in the 50’s have lived in 7 decades, 2 centuries & 2 millenniums. We had the best music and the fastest cars. We had Drive-in theaters, soda fountains and happy days. And we aren’t even that OLD yet, we’re just that cool.
CCR had so many hits, in a really short amount of time.
Radar Love by Golden Earring or Frankenstein by Edgar Winter. That was one of my favorite reactions yet by you guys.
Second both of these...
Frankenstein rules! Gotta watch a retro live version
Frankenstein yea
I'm sure glad to see you children enjoying some of the pioneers!!!
I love dancing to this!!
what I love from CCR are: Have you ever seen the Rain; Who'll stop the rain: Bad moon rising; Proud Mary; Cotton Fields; Heard on the Grapevine and LONG AS I CAN SEE THE LIGHT ..again, .keep on reacting guys...
Z Z Top - La Grange. But my personal favorite by Z Z Top is "Got Me under pressure." This is the one I would suggest you listen to. Some nasty, hard-hitting rhythm and licks in that song.
Good call. If you guys haven't started digging into ZZ Top yet, either of these songs would be a perfect place to start.
A how how how how have A&A not done any ZZ Top....?
If ya do ZZ TOP, you gotta do "Heard it on the X", and "Fool for your Stockings"
I'd also go with Waitin' On the Bus/Jesus Just Left Chicago of Tres Hombres, too. Awesome album.
I particularly recommend ZZ Top's live videos from their 1980 Rockpalast performance. This is them at their blues-rock best, before they broke REALLY big in the 80s (and got a little more commercial). La Grange is a blues guitar standard, and Just Got Paid is also tremendous at this performance.
Keep On Chooglin' - Creedence Clearwater Revival
These guys were just so Southern...great music I grew up in in Texas
You all are catching on! You've reacted to numerous great songs, but you haven't even gotten close to all the others out there from the late 60's thru the 70's! They will keep coming!
lets face it, they'd have to do a couple of songs a day 5 or 6 days a week to begin to truly make a dent in ALL the great music of the 60s, 70s, and early eighties. time these college boys don't have.
Your absolutely right flubblert! I was considering some of your math numbers when I wrote my initial comment! There are many bands I haven’t even seen mentioned as suggestions in all the past comments from all their previous reviews! Two great guys enjoying music like we did in the early to mid 70’s college days!
A&A - Oh, Dude!! Lmao. This was beyond fun!!! It is perfection & am so thrilled you had such a blast w/ this. There's no one like Fogerty's guitar & vocals. Solid musicians/music!! Have a fantastic weekend, fellas! Still lmao! -- Lisa :)
Agreed Lisa!
@@tallykev6608 This was so much fun. Omg! Have a great weekend, Kevin or should I say Dude! lol :)
I recall an interview with Fogerty once where someone asked him where he gets that distinct style of singing from, coming as he does from California. He made no bones about the fact that he was going for older black southern blues guy. I'm not sure he quite got there, but damn if he didn't create a completely original sound all his own in the process. No one sounds quite like him.
@@flubblert Great point. One would think he was out of Bayou country. I believe he was so taken with the sound coming from the southern regions, he couldn't help but want to immerse himself? Unique vocalist/guitarist, absolutely! Have a great weekend flubblert! :)
@@lisaw5604 r&b, blues, southern rock, an irresistible mashup. few bands have done it better than CCR. have a good one Lisa!!
"You're way cooler if you don't care". AWESOME! Sounds like John Fogerty! Thanks.
I've listened to this song for almost 50 years. Glad to see appreciation from a younger crowd who knows good music. Thanks guys!
These guys are legitimately "Cool!"
