Definitely check out their 1969 cover of the traditional folk song “Midnight Special,” from their album Willy and the Poor Boys. The band dates back to 1959, when John Fogerty, Doug Clifford, and Stu Cook met at Portola Junior High School in El Cerrito, California. Calling themselves the Blue Velvets, the trio played instrumentals and "jukebox standards", and backed John's older brother Tom at recordings and performances before he joined the band. The band had also released three singles, the second of which was picked up by Casey Kasem, who worked at KEWB, Oakland. In 1964 they signed with Fantasy Records, an independent jazz label in San Francisco. The band was attracted to the label after hearing a recording by Vince Guaraldi called "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" which the label had released to national success. For the band's first release, Fantasy co-owner Max Weiss renamed the group The Golliwogs (after the children's literary character Golliwog). Prior to the Golliwog name, Weiss had renamed them Vision. Bandmembers' roles changed during this period: Cook switched from piano to bass guitar and Tom Fogerty from lead vocals to rhythm guitar; John became the band's lead vocalist and primary songwriter. In Tom's words: "I could sing, but John had a sound!" For their work with this band, Tom took on the name "Rann Wild", and John became "Toby Green". Both sides of each of the group's first six singles (issued between 1964 and 1966) were credited to the writing team of Wild/Green. In 1966, John Fogerty and Doug Clifford were drafted into the U.S. armed forces; Fogerty joined the U.S. Army Reserve while Clifford joined the U.S. Coast Guard Reserve. Speaking of his experience in the US Army Fogerty has said: "I would become delirious and go into a trance. And I started narrating this story to myself, which was the song 'Porterville'." John Fogerty eventually took control of the group by singing lead vocals and blossoming into a multi-instrumentalist who played keyboards, harmonica, and saxophone in addition to lead guitar. By 1967, he was producing the group's recordings, although without credit. The group's final single, "Porterville", failed to chart (like every other Golliwogs recording) but the exact same recording was very shortly thereafter issued as a track by Creedence Clearwater Revival on that group's first album. In 1967, Saul Zaentz bought Fantasy Records and offered the band a chance to record an album. Having hated the name "The Golliwogs" from day one, the band decided on their own name, Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR), which they took in January 1968. Regarding the band name, according to interviews with the band members in the late eighties, the name's elements came from three sources: Tom Fogerty's friend Credence Newball, whose name they changed to form the word Creedence (as in creed); a television commercial for Olympia Brewing Company ("clear water"); and the four members' renewed commitment to their band. Rejected contenders for the band's name included "Muddy Rabbit", "Gossamer Wump", and "Creedence Nuball and the Ruby"; however, the last was the starting point from which the band derived their final name. Cook described the name as "weirder than Buffalo Springfield or Jefferson Airplane".

Check out Born on the Bayou if you really wanna hear something amazing by Creedence. It's a much longer song and it has two great guitar solos by John Fogerty. He's also the singer of the band if you don't know!!!!Love you sweetie!!! Have the best day!!!!

Vietnam era...this song fits that time period so well.

So good to see you again.

Aww thank you 💕💕

I refuse to watch any others reacting, you're the best!

This is definitely based on Vietnam War, and my dad served in this war after High School. This song - 10/10

So great to see you after so long!😊❤ You can never go wrong with the music of CCR! They're one of those rare bands where I love every song of theirs. As a Baptist Deacon, I appreciated your explanation of spiritual, church revivals. It's so good to see you enjoy this classic song! I think you would love their song "Hey Tonight!"

Hey! Good to see ya.

CCR's "I heard it through the grapevine" is a great cover of Gladys Knight and Marvin Gaye's. They were all recorded around the same time, but CCR's and Gaye's versions were the most popular.

hello beautiful haven't seen you in a loooooooooooooooooooong time welcome back.

They had the highest slugging percentage of all time, nearly every song they did is worthy of a reaction. Try one of the extended versions of "Suzie Q", either the 8-minute studio version, or the 10-minute live version included on the 40th anniversary edition of their debut CD. Go off the beaten path and react to "Bootleg (Alternate Take)", "Penthouse Pauper", "Gloomy", "Walk on the Water", "Porterville", and "The Working Man".

Big smile on my face seeing you back here. Hello again 👍

My wife calls their songs "1 beer long". They were from California and had never gone to the south before recording.

Every time I hear this I think of the movie "Apocalypse Now"

Well hello my good lady - hope you are well

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing

This is one of all time favorites. Vietnam was hell on earth, as is any war but it was televised in ways other wars were not and it was such a sore spot. Our vets were treated like criminals when they came back. The draft was being challenged. We should not have been there. Thank you for still bringing this music to light. I have a suggestion. The Rolling Stones “ Gimme Shelter” if you have never heard it. It is ….phenomenal.

The song was about the 200 million loaded guns in USA not Vietnam

The song is about control and the proliferation of guns in the USA
