Creedence had begun life in 1959 as.... The Blue Velvets and then.... The Golliwogs, without much success. In 1967 they changed their name, and the following year released an eponymous album.... Creedence Clearwater Revival, which featured a No.11 hit in.... “Suzie Q”. Follow-up Bayou Country went Top 10 and included the No.2 smash hit.... “Proud Mary”.
Their third album Green River (1969) was widely praised and spun two hit singles.... “Bad Moon Rising” and.... “Green River”. Both of which matched.... “Proud Mary” in reaching No.2. Willy and the Poor Boys.... was another hit with critics and fans, spawning two more No.5 singles. Their fifth album.... Cosmo’s Factory (1970) topped the album charts and produced an incredible five Top.5 singles. There is much debate among fans and critics about which of these three albums is their best, with Cosmo’s Factory perhaps slightly edging it with most listeners.
