#JohnFogerty was the pivotal member of #CredenceClearwater Revival.
But his brother #TomFogerty, who contributed significantly to the CCR sound as rhythm guitarist, could also sing, just nowhere near as "intense" and "gravelly" as John.
This is considered his best solo song.

Far from having a positive song title ๐๐, the generally overlooked #CredenceClearwater Revival song GRAVEYARD TRAIN is really one of the best vocals in #JohnFogerty' s canon.
He really hams up the Deep South drool singing this song, and of course it's classic CCR rhythm too.

Of all the songs that come out of that genre shattering revolutionary year of 1969 this short and sweet "blast from the past" ode to the forefathers of 50s rock and roll by #CredenceClearwater Revival is my absolute all time favourite.
CCR and #BuddyHolly to me are the best.

One of the most underrated #CredenceClearwater songs which is a noticeable omission from various "greatest hits" compilations.
#EricClapton reprised it years later & done a really good job of it by slowing it down and jazzing it up.
But it is CCR's song off COSMO'S FACTORY.

BLUE MOON SWAMP from #JohnFogerty, his belated mid 90s epic & first record since CENTREFIELD in the mid 80s, is just like the perfect #CredenceClearwater Revival album.
There is nothing flawed about it. Not one dud song in a classic "swamp rock set".
My favourite 90s album.
