    I'm a 71 year old drummer and that beat has been in my bones for 50 years. CCR was my air drum band in my teens.

    I just realized, this performance, could almost be considered proto-punk. The pace, the simplicity, and the message.

      Yeah punk basically started as this kind of music but played very fast due to stage fright. And this version is noticeably faster than the album version

    I was lucky enough to see them live in the 70's. They were the first rock band my dad listened to and liked

    Phenomenal song. Have loved it for decades. CCR's repertoire is immense. So many artists have covered them.

    CCR are one of my favorite bands. Captivating from the first tone to the last with widespread musical colours.
    Thank you for your very appropriate analysis Bethany! 🙏

    I grew up on the great music of the 60's-70's. CCR has always been one of my favorites. John Fogerty has one of the most unique & recognizable voices around. They don't have a bad song! Huge list of hits! "I Heard It Through The Grapevine", "Proud Mary", "I Put A Spell On You", "Down On The Corner", "Green River", "Have You Ever seen The Rain", "The Midnight Special", "Susie Q", "Born On The Bayou", "Travelin' Band", "Run Through The Jungle", "Long As I Can See the Light", "Sweet Hitchhiker", "Bad Moon Rising" etc.

    2 of CCR really weren't "Fortunate Sons", as they did go to War in 'Nam, & so their band, just: 'Creedance Clearwater' broke up, & when, post-tours, they all reunited, they added: 'Revival' to the band's name
    to represent 'em revivin' to rockin' roll!🤘

      John Fogerty never went to Vietnam. He got a draft notice but enlisted in the Army Reserve. He served 2 years here in the states.

    I can name that song in 2 notes, it is one of those instantly recognizable songs, and important songs. John's voice is also instantly recognizable. I agree with you CCR is very underrated and always has been. Born in 83 I grew up listening to them as my parents were huge fans, and we always had the golden oldies on the car radio. I as always appreciated your reaction and thoughts on this.

    Cool song. Heart beat beginning to a jone of others heart beat a healthy rebellion. I Love It! His face looks to me as when he is singing this song. His soul is being tickled from performing this song. I can almost feel the inside gooses he is feeling.

    Totally agree. As a boomer, CCR was huge during my childhood. But these days, they seem to get lost in the shuffle of bands from that era.

    This version is a classic example of that old band joke, "How do you know when a drummer knocks at your door?" .... "It speeds up."
    If a band launched today, or any era post Creedence, with a vocalist that sang like John Fogerty, I honestly feel they'd be a world wide success.
    One of my absolute favorite live performances from John Fogerty is 'Born on the Bayou', from the Premonition live DVD; it's SO good.

    • @johnmadden2421

    "Creedence", as we say here in Sweden, were huge. And still if someone is playing covers at a pub there will inevitably be some requesting "Play some Creedence!"
    In fact the band my cousin used to play in made it 500 SEK (about $50) to request a Creedence song just because the wanted to play other songs as well for a change 😅

    Love the way you break down the vocals and your overall analysis of a song Bethany. Top notch. I appreciate your insight. Thanks.
    If you have the chance, please check out Stevie Wonders live cover of Fragile by Sting at Stings 60th birthday party. Stevie's phrasing and his take on the song is unbelievable.
    Thanks again.

    Many of the great singers from the 70's are half-forgotten. You've just reacted to two of them -- Fogerty and Rodgers -- but there are many others. One of my favorites is Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music. Over the decade, Roxy morphed from edgy art-pop to dreamy ethereal, and every step of the way Bryan was fantastic. The obvious would be to react to a performance from their ultra-successful Avalon album, but you can pick him up at any point in the 70's and enjoy his singular voice.

    Loving your channel!
    I highly recommend the CCR songs Wrote a Song For Everyone or (Wish I Could) Hideaway. Two lesser known songs that are more ballads than most CCR songs that really show off Fogerty's vocal skills. Also Hideaway is unique because organ rather than guitar is the lead melodic instrument in the mix. Unfortunately you'd be hard pressed to find a live performance of either of these songs to use on the channel. Thank you, have a good day.

    While you're watching live videos, 😊😊
    ‘Sivert Høyem - my thieving heart (live at acropolis)’ comes highly recommended.
    Totally different genre but very worthwhile.
    Sivert Høyem is the singer of Madrugada, with a very warm voice and already quite a long career that in my opinion deserves a bit more attention.
    Kind regards

    Finally! Big CCR fan here. One video, especially this particular video is not enough to understand Fogerty's voice. You can clearly see how he is nervous and keeps looking at the drummer Clifford because they just getting faster and faster from the beginning to the end. So he couldn't sing the way he used to.

    I love CCR's music, but I think their lore is even more interesting, and a bit sad to think about how much bigger they could have been. Banger after banger, songs like Fortunate Son that effectively defined an entire specific period of time, but the band only 3 years due to (apparently) massive control issues. They released 3 top 10 albums in a single year!

    When you're 12 and heard this when it first aired, you learn to hear and tune in to music and singers and when you age, you can skip all the others over the years that just can't match bands like these.
