If you actively dislike Creedence Clearwater Revival, then I can never respect anything you have to say about anything.

Dire Oyster Revival is the best band ever.

A good example of a band to which this actually applies
NRBQ Classic or Dud

There are lots but the best example, without a shadow of a doubt, is Kiss.

Journey, too, I believe.

Regardless of their chart performance at the time, they're pretty much unknown to people my age (26) except as that band the guy in the Big Lebowski likes.

that's depressing! i'm 25, and while the big lebowski's done a lot to sustain CCR's popularity, i know lots of people that love them aside from that!

TH: We often cover Creedence Clearwater Revival, which is weird because I don't personally like them as a band, but it turns out...like, I don't like Proud Mary. You know that song?

Pitchfork: Yeah, I do.

TH: I don't like that song.

I don't like Proud Mary. You know that song?

Pitchfork: Yeah, I do.

He knows THAT song? Just... wow!

He had to ask who sung "Jeremy" tho, sounds like he's heard maybe 4-5 records ever

TH is not me by the way

fuck les savy fav imo

ramble tamble is f'in awesome, but it has that line that creepsme out: "actors in the white house." it's like weird reagan prophecy...has anyone else noticed this? this song was written at least ten years before RWR was elected President...what is going on with Fogerty & co.?

While still governor of California, Reagan ran for President in 1968 - he actually beat out Nixon in overall popular vote, but didn't have enough delegates to defeat Nixon.

Listening to "Bootleg" on shuffle play and was reminded of the "appalachian-kraut-boogie" description from one of the other CCR threads. Brilliant song.

I actively dislike Credence Clearwater Revival.

Then I will never respect anything you have to say about anything. Including "I actively dislike Credence Clearwater Revival."

(So much so that I don't know how to spell their name.)

That's too bad.

Why do you "actively dislike" them?, says this fan of CCR.

Fogerty's big chompin' voice grosses me out.

see how good the water tastes
when you can't have any more

My mom beat me with a switch while playing CCR non-stop. That is why. Feel bad about it.

^^^New board description^^^?

TAKE A GLASS OF WAAAHTER MAKE IT AGAYNST THE LAAAAAAAAHWWWW

I love CCR. And I do know who Trisomie 21 is.

Listening to CCR is the only thing that got me through the hard times of being beaten with a switch.

Based on these anecdotes, I will probably give CCR's live show a miss.

1:groove is relentless & formidable
2:could be 2 x as long & still great
3:no matter how loud you turn this up, it could still go 1 louder if poss:

For years my dad maintained that CCR were the greatest rock and rollers ever and I laughed at him. Now I've been learned.

I actively really fucking love the woodstock version of "I put a spell on you."

This is meant as the ultimate compliment, not something to appall CCR lovers: I thought the key to why Madonna's "Beautiful Stranger" was so great was that it had CCR all over it, especially "Born on the Bayou."

I actively really fucking love the woodstock version of "I put a spell on you."

the woodstock movie is so bizarre in retrospect, really gave everyone a warped view of the show

is there footage of CCR there, or were they not filmed? they're not in the movie, right?

not in the movie as far as i know, or at least the regular cut that they showed on PBS when i was a kid...dylan, the band, tim hardin, mountain, the grateful dead lots of others performed as well and weren't in

i think albert goldman had a dispute with the filmmakers and pulled all his artists, which was part of the omissions

huh wiki says incredible string band and johnny and edgar winter too

i actively dislike them, for real. i think i am allergic to john fogerty

dylan didn't pla woodstock - i think they begged him to, though.
& yeah, ISB are sort of notorious for bombing miserably at woodstock.

i only dislike eric clapton/cream more
