If this was too short, y'all need to go back to their first album and their first big hit. "Suzie Q." It even says "Featuring Suzie Q." on the front of the album. Eight minutes and 42 seconds of eargasmic sauce and solos.

I think there's a long version on KZread of "Keep on Chooglin'." Haven't looked for it lately or seen it reacted to. I'll have to do some research.

For your next CCR reaction, I recommend either "Proud Mary", "Who'll Stop the Rain", or "Up Around the Bend". Their version of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" is very good, definitely worth hearing, but the other 3 songs I mentioned are 3 of their very best songs, songs that anyone that loves CCR has got to hear, and all 3 are John Fogerty compositions.

Down on the Corner gets my vote. Just makes you happy. You can't listen to that song and feel anything but happy.

My favorite CCR song! Born on the Bayou is right up there too, along with Susie Q. Have you guys listened to that one yet? It was played in the movie Apocalypse Now. Truly surreal.

Sweet Hitchhiker CCR

Ramble Tamble! Totally different totally cool... I keep suggesting this hopefully one day you see it and choose it. No doubt you will enjoy it

This tune is super-swampy and actually one of my favorites by CCR.

One of the things I like best about CCR is that even their more obscure songs are just about as good as their hits, and in some cases even better. They don't have a 'bad' song.

"Someday Never Comes " is so emotional! "Ramble Tamble is swamp rocker! "Long as i can see the Light" is swamp gospel! 3 MONSTER SONGS

Grapevine, Grapevine, GRAPEVINE! You should do this song next for sure. Worst songs by great bands livestream is something I would tune in for.

I'm sure it's been mentioned but CCR were from the San Francisco area and had never been anywhere near a bayou when they wrote/performed these songs. Fogerty liked the style. Learned the techniques and the feel... and let it loose on the world.

They also did Proud Mary! It was probably one of Tina Turner’s biggest hits but CCR’s is my favorite.

Their cover of "Heard it Through the Grapevine" is awesome, good choice. Bad song live-stream is BAD IDEA.

'Long As I can See the Light' has to be my favorite CCR song and it gets better as I get older.
