Music reviews of Chronicle, Vol. 1: The 20 Greatest Hits

Music Review: Single Disk Greatest Hits
Rating: 5 Stars

This is a single disk that accurately captures one of the great American groups of the time. Creedence Clearwater Revival was born in California, but managed to grab a taste of Southern culture through the songwriting and playing of front man, John Fogerty. The original tunes tell tales of riverboats in the South, Tin Pan Alley, washboards and hand clapping tales, as well as serious political commentary, like "Fortunate Son". The hits are amazing, from the earliest cover of Dale Hawkins' "Suzie Q", through the Screaming Jay Hawkins song, "I Put a Spell On You", where Fogerty wails like a man possessed. "Looking Out My Back Door" is a humerous tale fueled by imagination. "Down On the Corner" is story about four guys on the corner singing harmonies for the sheer love of it. "Bad Moon Rising", an ominous tale of forboding has a chugging guitar that supplies rhythmic fill. "Up Around the Bend" begins with a searing guitar riff that flies into a powerful song. There is a second disk that is a good companion greatest hits, and a great box set that is more comprehensive, but this one of the best and most affordable "Greatest Hits" collections you can get.

Few bands of the 1960s retained as much a sense of the roots of rock and roll as did Creedence Clearwater Revival. Their music is rife with country, rockabilly, and R&B influences, a combination that produced several hit singles--most of which are present on this collection. These include "I Heard It through the Grapevine," "Lodi," "Up Around the B ," "Who'll Stop the Rain," and of course "Bad Moon Rising." This is an excellent greatest-hits collection, and a perfect introduction to the music of a band that has been enduringly influential. --Genevieve Williams
