Scary music back when we were praying for Vietnam draftees to make it home.
Creedence's cover of "I Put A Spell On You" is one of the all-time best
FACTS!!!!! Fogarty, and Miss Nina the top versions, IMHO
@@kikivon3501Agree, but Annie Lennox comes pretty close too.
First Creedence song I ever heard. Immediately hooked.
you know it !!!!!
That northern California swamp music 😍
That East Bay swamp!
The muddy bayous of the Sacramento River. 😆
Sorry people. They are from the South

John was from northern California.
Decades later and still never tire of listening to them....magic!
A lot of people think this is about Vietnam, which is fine, but John Fogerty has stated that it was about the proliferation of guns in American society. It's a pro-gun control song. And they are NOT from the South. They were from California.
I wonder if John was inspired by the swamps, green rivers, and wetlands of Kentucky while stationed there during his military service.
@nazfrde nonsense
@@L.A55 The song was written by Creedence's lead singer, guitarist and songwriter, John Fogerty. It was included on their 1970 album Cosmo's Factory, the group's fifth album. The song's title and lyrics, as well as the year it was released (1970), have led many to assume that the song is about the Vietnam War. The fact that previous Creedence Clearwater Revival songs such as "Fortunate Son" were protests of the Vietnam War added to this belief.[3]
However, in a 2016 interview, Fogerty explained that the song is actually about the proliferation of guns in the United States.
The thing I wanted to talk about was gun control and the proliferation of guns... I remember reading around that time that there was one gun for every man, woman and child in America, which I found staggering. So somewhere in the song, I think I said, '200 million guns are loaded.' Not that anyone else has the answer, but I did not have the answer to the question; I just had the question. I just thought it was disturbing that it was such a jungle for our citizens just to walk around in our own country at least having to be aware that there are so many private guns owned by some responsible and maybe many irresponsible people.[4]
@@L.A55 I refer you to @josephbrowning4220's comment below.
They got a Bayou sound but they're from San Francisco....gnarly how they play and sound like it's the world they were raised in...
That’s John Fogerty on harmonica also. There is no end to this guy’s talent. By the way, he’s almost 80 and still doing shows.
This is often believed to be about the Vietnam War, as it referred to a "jungle" and was released in 1970. The fact that previous CCR songs such as "Who'll Stop the Rain?" and "Fortunate Son" were protests of the Vietnam War added to this theory. In response, John Fogerty said: "I think a lot of people thought that because of the times, but I was talking about America and the proliferation of guns, registered and otherwise. I'm a hunter and I'm not antigun, but I just thought that people were so gun-happy - and there were so many guns uncontrolled that it really was dangerous, and it's even worse now. It's interesting that it has taken 20-odd years to get a movement on that position." His position is best demonstrated in this lyric: “200 million guns are loaded, Satan cries, "Take aim!"
John Fogerty is on tour now. He does 20 or more Hits back to back at every show. Incredible concerts.
Saw John Fogarty live in Amsterdam a few years ago.
HE STILL HAS THAT VOICE!
Awesom show. He played for two hours.
Thanks guys, this was good 👍💪😁
What sucks is all these greats are old or gone, and even if they still "have it" it's not as good as in their prime. At least we still have all the great music on recordings
Love CCR, love John, but he lost “that” voice a couple decades ago.
@@rubrokenNo doubt JF has lost much of the bass and grit in his voice, and not recently either.
The pride and joy of Northern California right there!! Love them from the first time I heard them ❤
The atmosphere of this song is so strong. It sounds like he's a herald of God roaring a warning at us from the mountain top.
"Let the people know my wisdom, fill the land with smoke". Seriously? That's some kind of line. Jeez.
Heard It Through the Grapevine ( long version, 11 minutes) is my favorite CCR song....exceptional song!
Gladys liked their cover too
@@seanabadalich9112 Hers is the best, imho. All are good, but hers doesn't get enough recognition.
These guys only made albums together for like THREE YEARS! Astonishing.
It has to be the greatest catalog of music ever made in a span of 3 years.
Yes yes yes. Snarling CCR. Still Funky and swampy, but with attitude. “Two hundred million guns are loaded, Satan cries take aim.” Sure sounds anti-Vietnam to me. Great song.
No, it is about the proliferation of guns in the US.
Yes indeed it was an anti-Vietnam song.
@@dianaspears571 No. John Fogerty himself said it wasn't.
@@79BlackRose yes, I just read that and stand corrected. I remember when the song came out and it was used in protests about Vietnam at the time. My cousins who served in Vietnam said that they listened to it and it what a big hit with the troops while they served, among a few other songs. This is the first time that I'd ever heard otherwise. It may have been written by John Fogerty with that intent but it certainly wasn't the public's interpretation of the song. Thank you for enlightening me.
@@dianaspears571 No problem. You're welcome.
And the most amazing thing is that they’re from El Cerrito, CA.✌️❤️🎶
El Cerrito, between Berkeley and Richmond.
John Fogerty the lead singer Served in the army Although he didn't go to Vietnam The song is about the war. That's why it's in the soundtrack A lot of Vietnam movies. The band itself is from Berkeley California
Unmistakable CCR.
I'm from Louisiana and when they first come out I would have swore they were homeboys. Even when I found out they were from California I was like "Ain't no way!"
Imagine how powerful this song was played on Armed Forces Radio in Vietnam
My dad has stories. We’re only getting them recently.
Classic CCR banger! Always love their sound
Fogerty is just plain great--and from Northern California. How did he get so swampy and funky? Dunno! Credence does have some friendly songs--Down On The Corner, Lookin' Out My Back Door, Sweet Hitchhiker, Proud Mary, etc. What does not change is Fogerty's brilliance and authenticity.
The anti war/ anti Vietnam war songs were great. This one is one of the very best!
Let the people know my will , fill the land with smoke. Tough times for many.
El Cerrito CA. (CCR's hometown)) is a world away from the bayou's of Louisiana, but you'd never know it, listening to the deep swampiness of Fogerty's genius..... love the channel gentlemen!
BOTTOM OF THE STATE HERE.....AND THANK YOU....
HELL YES!!!! You two spot on as usual.
This is my favorite CCR song, love the harmonica
CCR comes right out of the swamps of northern California. 🤣🤣
A testament to Northern California where these boys were from. Even the Country 'Bakersfield' sound was born there!
Central Valley, i.e., 'Bakersfield' ins't NorCal.
THEY ALWAYS REMIND ME OF THE VIETNAM ERA!!!
John Fogerty has that unique Cajon sound. Not bad for a California band. Their first name was The Golliwogs. CCR had many two sided hits. The power of their music is incredible.
You guys are marvelous reactors.
I really enjoyed that.
I missed CCR! It's been a while since you've reacted to them. They deserve more appreciation from everyone!
Classic. So good, and it aged well.
Bad ass jam from the past…love it !
Magic
Yes CCR have a sound of their own, and I love it. Thanks and good morning ☀️.
The key to the "swamp sound" is a tremolo pedal and a Fender Telecaster. The Telecaster is famous as one of the twangiest guitars out there, and the shimmering volume tremble that the trem pedal gives coats the guitar in that wet, swampy warble that really makes a lot of CCR songs.
Its a Rickenbacker model 325 John plays on this track, like the majority.
@@tombradley7796 You're absolutely right. During CCR he was mainly using his fireglo 325. I think he also began using two separate Les Pauls during the later phase of the band's existence. It wasn't until some time later and long after the age of the Rickenbacker (mostly) that you started seeing him on stage with a Telecaster occasionally. Totally my own misspeaking.
@@Chamomileable No worries at all brother, Peace.
Such a classic and wow I sure do love how that bass guitar line interacts with the primal drums and the back beats in the rhythm guitar.
Check out one of their hardest punching hits, Someday Never Comes.
Hard pressed to make people believe they are El Cerrito’s own.
The diversity of Bay Area music... Green Day started close by and Sly and Tower of Power were just up the road in the East Bay
LOVE Creedence!
They had the ability to blend Rock,Blues and Folk into unique sound
The best swamp music coming from the blue-collar suburb of El Cerrito north of Oakland
Which would be in Berkeley, right?
We’ll it actually sits in between Berkeley & Richmond , with Albany tucked in there
Going east on HWY 80
anyway, 4 East Bay homeboys making swampy, southern rock. 😜.
Chi sure has some dedication and courage to be wearing that White Sox cap this year.
I was shocked when I learned that these cats were from the San Fran area! Was sure they were from the Bayou of Louisiana!
I LOVED this group !
Creedence has that sound exactly. Swampy!!! Lol! They put echo on their guitar rythyms, with a steady beat, with funky old blues mix. Then add his voice and Bang!!!!
OH MAN… YOU GUYS GOTTA LISTEN TO… KEEP ON CHOOGLIN
THATS GONNA BLOW UR MIND… ROCK ON 👊🖖
Keeping the weekend going strong! Great song from a great band! Excellent reaction, fellas 👏 🎉❤😊
Hard pressed to believe these boys were together for such a short time with all there hits.
I like how Fogerty pronounces words to get an even grittier...like you said, "swampier" sound. Like, instead of saying "...heard a rumbling..." he says "...hoyed a rumblin'..." And instead of "...two hundred million guns are loaded..." he says "...two hundid million..."
Flip side hit to another hit " Goin' Up Around the Bend"
It's one of the great single chord songs. I'm pretty sure it never changes
Spot on gentlemen! They sounded dangerous and grimey. As a 4-5 year old kid back around 1970, ( and the youngest kid in my fam by a long way) I just felt that sound, and they made me scared!! I remember my parents often organised fund raisers for their golf club at a local farmers Barn, cows straw and all- and played all the groovy latest music loud. But hearing CCR spooked me out!! Always remember that feeling!🤣🤣
Ya’ll two are the BEST!!! I love ya’ll’s reactions !!!!
I was about 10 years old (1970) when I first heard "Bad Moon Rising." I ain't lyin', it scared the shit outta me.
I sleep on CCR , they got so many hits. Fogerty’s voice is funky!!!
All 3 went to high school together in El Cerrito California. This is California-based rock, most definitely not Southern, though John Fogerty loved the swampy-creole tinged blues sound of Louisiana and wrote to those themes. This song was about both the proliferation of guns in the US and about being a combat soldier in Vietnam--JF allowed for both interpretations. Great volume of work in a short period and JF is a top ten male rock vocalist--great pipes, could sing anything.
Turn Turn Turn was released in 1964, and was definitely a world away from 1970! David Crosby was in The Byrds before Crosby, Still, Nash & Young and you can see the development of their music with the times. (Much darker stuff!)
I feel like I need to be on a bayou with an Abita beer and some blackened catfish
John seems like he singing a warning to us all
I saw John Fogerty (Vocals & Lead guitar) last week in Raleigh. He was doing the Creedence Revival Tour. At 79 he's still out there doing it and doing it quite well. His son's band Hardy Har is his back up. He was touring with George Thorogood and they are very old close friends. It was a great show!!!
CCR is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Brings back bad memories but a great song!
Referencing the Vietnam War. Fogerty wrote most of the music and who will deny it’s iconic..he’s one of the greatest American songwriters.
Reminds me of riding in my grandpa's 54 Chevy with the AM radio cranked to KLIF-1190 when this first came out
"Swampy". LOL I like it. Give their It Came From The Sky a listen.
John was raised in Northern Calif.
In an interview, in 2006 I believe, Fogarty stated that this was not about Vietnam but about what he saw as the scary proliferation of guns in America. The “200 million guns” line came from his having read that there was “a gun for every man, woman and child in America”.
From Cosmo’s Factory… That’s a great album .. this is a fun song to play on guitar..🎸 I love Fogerty’s riffs.
VERY DIFFERENT S0UND, MANY, MANY HITS< THEY CERTAINiY HAD THEIR 0WN NICHE BACK IN THE DAY!!
Vietnam was a swamp, particularly during monsoon season. This is a protest song, linked to a strategy for staying alive when you don't know where the enemy is at. Better run through the jungle.
these guys are Cajun, but this came out during the Vietnam war. one of my favorite bands
Alright Laa and Chee! Some good ole swamp rock!!
Straight from the swamps of the East Bay!!
I said the same thing when I first heard CCR. That swamp sound they must be from Louisiana. Blew me away when I found out they were from California.
Next one y'all should do is " Long As I Can See the Light ".
We consider Fogherty an honorary citizen of Louisiana.
Dirty and muddy is the perfect description
Heard it through the grapevine. Long version is a must.
They ding that song Down On The Corner that most people know. They have quite a bit of great songs. Suzie Q is great and whole handful more like Lookin Out My Back Door, Heard it through the Grapevine,Proud Mary, Up Around The Bend, etc. Keep playing them? Some are covers, but in Creedence style!
Green River next for your listening pleasure. We loved CCR and our vinyl records got played out! 1971?
They are from San Francisco............................El Cerrito!! I would've never guessed!!
these guys were all from around the san francisco bay area. lead singer, john fogerty, is the only singer/songwriter to ever be sued for sounding like himself.
Young Fogerty was inspired by that southern sound. He probably couldn't help it
Just jumped in. Brothers, you gotta react to more CCR!! Put a candle in the window is my favorite
They grew up out of the swamps of Emeryville, CA!
Going to see John Fogerty next Saturday in NJ. It should be great.
They loved that deep South sound but they were from the San Francisco Bay area, El Cerito, CA. 😄✌, PJ
I'm 62 born and raised in New Orleans and until I was in my 20s and found out CCR was from Northern California hell I even thought they were from the swamps of Louisiana
Vietnam era...tough time for G.I.s! This song spelled it out to a tee.
Anti Vietnam war song by CCR. One of many rock bands that wrote anti-war songs in the late 60's and early 70's. Great review.
No, it is about the proliferation of guns in the US.
Greatest song in Vietnam they blow a rams horns and a thousand would come running 120 degrees hot hot and i burnt up 6 barrels on M60 they court marshall for barrels in rice patties just keep moving backwards in 30 hrs killed thousands we were the first ones there and saved 3 missioners they had captured Run through the Jungle
Now John Fogerty was a soldier in Vietnam so I think maybe some of this song is about his experiences
You dudes got it going on, keep it up ! I’m checking out y’all’s reactions & enjoying it! 👍👍👍👍👍! ! !
My favorite CCR tune. The have a thick catalog.
Short one but a Great one.
Used well in The Big Lebowski.
Yeah....❤
So John Fogerty wrote the songs, lyrics and music and all. He was the lead singer and lead guitarist. When John left CCR he signed over all the rights to his old songs. He was sued later by the member of CCR because they said his new song "Old Man Down the Road" sounded too much like Run through the jungle (this song) so he had to play both songs in court and in the end the judge ruled in John's favor saying someone can't copy themselves and that John had a signature sound.
