Amazing this band had a run of only four years but their music lives on and on and on with new people discovering them and falling in love with their music. They were musical geniuses.
This is one of the best, if not the best, pure CCR rockin songs! I'm 69 yrs old and our generation had the absolute best music ever!! Saw them live back in the day and they put on a show you never forget! Love them to this day.
Jamel, I can die a happy man after watching you react to my favorite CCR song.We use to dance our asses off to this and have the best times ever whenever we heard it. If your feet don't move to this your dead. I never thought I would see anyone react to this. Thanks...your the man.
saw them in Jacksonville FL, '69. Had floor seats, we were all seated until the first cord, then the chairs went to the side and we all stood and had a great time singing along and moving to the groove, lol
I was 14 when this hit the air. Wasn t on the radio that much but my COOLEST friends had the newest technology.....8 track.....YEEHHHHAAAAAWWW!!!! THE 60 s was GOOD to ROCK AND ROLL!!!
Jamel, you really nailed it when you said we were spoiled! Those of us who were teens in the 70's knew we had it pretty good musically and now, lo these many years later, it remains true :)
One of the best bands of the era... Excellent musicians. Grew up in the sixties/seventies and it was the best of times ... So much great music on the radio... I miss those days...
When we first heard CCR we assumed they were from down in the bayou. What a surprise to find out they were from San Francisco. haha. I never got to see them but I saw John Fogerty in Vegas some years ago. Great show!
Most people didn't realize what a talented guitarist John Fogerty was and is. He's also the one who dubbed their style of music 'swamp rock'. Loved this.❤
Nobody comes close to prime John Fogerty on vocals, dude was unreal. Even with a diminished voice he still does amazing at 75, and has a full solo catalogue of amazing music.
Thank you for taking my suggestion, Jamal. CCR is an American national treasure. There's something about their sound that us Indigenous people on the rez love!
I'm 63 and enjoy CCR for sure. Have one of their best hit albums. And yet I don't recall hearing this song? It's awesome! Thank you and I'm so glad this came up on my suggestions.
Release date 1969 . You know why are music was so great back then? It’s because it relayed on musical talent not million dollar computers and auto tune just pure talent.It didn’t matter how you looked or who had the best video it was who had the best sound.Artist competed for who had the best sounding record out.
I knew we were spoiled, Always will be. It's also called discerning Jamel, u have exquisite taste always! Love to see u diggin what I grew up on in high school. Look at the year this was recorded. Older, sick, so what...still jammin!!!
I was a kid in the 70's and these songs are burned into my memory...Ray Stevens- The Mississippi Squirrel Revival, anything by Tommy James and the Shondells, Glen Campbell- Whichita Lineman, Tony Orlando and Dawn- Tie a Yellow Ribbon, The Jackson 5- I want you back, Edison Lighthouse - Love grows where my Rosemary goes, Flatt & Scruggs- Ballad of Jed Clampett. I love watching your reactions to some of the songs I've heard most of my life, but like you I also hear tunes and groups I somehow missed discovering while growing up! Who knew?😂. Keep'em coming. I work 3rd shift in a nursing home and my residents are enjoying the tunes! Stay safe and healthy.
Saw them do this at the first Atlanta Pop Festival back in 1969. It was late evening/early morning, little bonfires were burning and Creedence was CHOOGLIN'!
Thanks for playing my request Brother. When I saw it up there on my home page I yelled so loud my wife thought I went nuts. I watched it while eating supper and played the "air fork guitar"!
@@deborahcornell171 Me either. I look for his reactions on artists he doesn't have on his playlist by typing 'jamel jamal creedence' in the search window
Chooglin' is the coolest made up word since Stevie Miller's "Pompitous" of love. Thank you so much for this, one of their best jam tunes, a show closer for sure.
fall night in the south. Windows down and music up blasting down the twisty 2 lane black tops to PCB at the speed of heat. cooler full of mountain dew and ice. Yeah baby! 1970's rock n roll!!!
THANK YOU!! The first time I heard this, it was on a cheap cassette deck with a 2" speaker. I was 13 or 14? Man, it sounded as good to me then as it does now!
The lyrics will reveal what "chooglin'" means. "...But if you're a natchul man, you gotta ball an' have a good time, an' that's what I call choog-a-line!" Great live performance!!
So happy you're discovering all the great music and that you appreciate the quality and beauty of the music. Everyone can see that you're really feeling it!
I have this tattooed on my arm in honor of my two brothers. We are all CCR fans, and when shit gets rough, you gotta keep on chooglin. Rip Ron and Jerry.
@@love-vy1ry I went to so many concerts, I guess I got them mixed up. I do remember the Moody Blues had a few encores, and after the lights went on and they had left, the audience gave them a standing ovation for about 10 minutes trying to get another.
Well Jamel, really the only reason I watched this was to see your reaction when that harp started wailing. I wasn't disappointed! Dang that are so many things about the 70s I really miss.
The lead singer of CCR (John Fogerty) has a bunch of solo tunes that are amazing too. You should check out "Centerfield" or "The Old Man Down The Road".
In high school, I played rhythm guitar in a garage band that covered this song. Every time we performed it, my fingers ached! It was one chord through the whole song!
I've been in a number of bands along the way ( i'm a 65 year old former hippie) and i can honestly say that when youre playing and everyone in the band is in the groove with that magical connection between us, in front of an audience that is also groovin along, into the music, its the most fun you can have with your pants on.
CCR is mostly known for great sub-4 minute songs that became hits and staples on radio. Fans of CCR also know them as one of the greatest of all jam bands!... this video is a prime example.
One of the best jam sessions from the 60s on record. Their second LP 'Bayou Country' also has Proud Mary and Born on the Bayou thereon. Great sound!!!!!
Chooglin' From the Urban Dictionary: A rhythm guitar style that employs a deliberately hard up and down stroke against the strings to simulate the motions of pistons or trains. A style made popular in the late 1960s and early 1970s by Creedence Clearwater Revival
There are at least 5 more prime CCR songs that I think you'll like: "Proud Mary", "Who'll Stop the Rain", "Up Around the Bend", "Green River", and "Lookin' Out the Back Door".
I hope everyone, especially Jamel, knows that, at 75, John Fogerty is still chooglin' strong. Check out his recent videos where he and his kids perform a lot of CCR's hits from their home during the lockdown.
They were doing this over fifty years ago, and John Fogerty is still out there doing it. I saw him at Riverbend in Cincy a couple of Summers ago with ZZ Top and man he ain't missing a lick. In fact, he's better on the guitar than he was back in the day. Once the lockdown is over he will probably be at it again. Plus, he and his sons have been posting videos on UA-cam making music from their home. He don't know how to do anything else but play.
One of my favorite CCR songs is a rarely played song called "Hot Rod Heart". A really fun song is "Bootleg (Howl)" and make sure it's the video on the Mississippi paddle wheeler. Girl in white steals the show.
Hell yeah this is what I came for. Made my night. This is some serious southern blues rocking shit eating pickin going on damn those solos and harmonica. Wow. Thank you.
Amazing this band had a run of only four years but their music lives on and on and on with new people discovering them and falling in love with their music. They were musical geniuses.
Imagine being 19 yrs. old with a car full friends rolling down the road with the 8 track blasting this. What a time we had!
Yeah... that time never came back.... It's so sad...
Still doing this today, 23 yr old VW owner, nothing past 1980 gets played in my car!
I must have been on a different road doing the same
Bro that sounds fucken awesome!!! I was born in the wrong era!!
Good times coming down baby❤
This is one of the best, if not the best, pure CCR rockin songs! I'm 69 yrs old and our generation had the absolute best music ever!! Saw them live back in the day and they put on a show you never forget! Love them to this day.
agree 69 also I was a fan from 1969 on
They hit a groove on this live that's just insane. This song could be 45 minutes long, and I'd be OK with it.
Jamel, I can die a happy man after watching you react to my favorite CCR song.We use to dance our asses off to this and have the best times ever whenever we heard it. If your feet don't move to this your dead. I never thought I would see anyone react to this. Thanks...your the man.
saw them in Jacksonville FL, '69. Had floor seats, we were all seated until the first cord, then the chairs went to the side and we all stood and had a great time singing along and moving to the groove, lol
Keep on Chooglin
Best unknown masterpiece ever
Just listen
Man, we were sure spoilt for choice back in the day! Feeling blessed to have lived through it. Peace.
I saw CCR in concert back in the very early 70's. They played this song and I was right up near the stage. We were definitely rockin' out.
I was 14 when this hit the air. Wasn t on the radio that much but my COOLEST friends had the newest technology.....8 track.....YEEHHHHAAAAAWWW!!!! THE 60 s was GOOD to ROCK AND ROLL!!!
Who'll stop the rain. Everything they did was great
Yes it was!
Like literally almost everything!!! For a band that wasn't together too long unfortunately they were so underrated
Mardi Gras was a disappointment.
I love when bands incorporate the harmonica into their music. Blues-Blues-Blues!
Jamel, you really nailed it when you said we were spoiled! Those of us who were teens in the 70's knew we had it pretty good musically and now, lo these many years later, it remains true :)
We had no idea we could lose that music creating talents! Spoiled indeed!
One of the greatest bands ever.
Цалкам згодны.
One of the best bands of the era... Excellent musicians. Grew up in the sixties/seventies and it was the best of times ... So much great music on the radio... I miss those days...

Research what George Harrison said about him
CCR is one of the meanest, tightest bands in the business. A John Fogerty original this song like many of CCR’s catalogue
Oh yes, Creedence. "Lookin' Out My Back Door" "Bad Moon Rising" "Green River" "Born on the Bayou"
this genre of rock is known as 'Rock-a-billy"...you have masters right hear...Ty brotha
Nobody comes close to prime John Fogerty on vocals, dude was unreal. Even with a diminished voice he still does amazing at 75, and has a full solo catalogue of amazing music.
So many great bands in the 60’s and 70’s and we thought it would always be that way
Thank you for taking my suggestion, Jamal. CCR is an American national treasure. There's something about their sound that us Indigenous people on the rez love!
late 60’s and the 70’s what a time for great music✌️
Congrats on this one Jamel, a deep cut I’ve never seen reacted to yet. Love it. CCR have no bad songs.
I'm 63 and enjoy CCR for sure. Have one of their best hit albums. And yet I don't recall hearing this song? It's awesome! Thank you and I'm so glad this came up on my suggestions.

We were spoiled didn't know it
Music-wise I think we knew it.
I knew we were spoiled, Always will be. It's also called discerning
Jamel, u have exquisite taste always! Love to see u diggin what I grew up on in high school. Look at the year this was recorded. Older, sick, so what...still jammin!!!
This isn't the 3 minute radio cut... 😁
That guitar work is cleaning out my ears. Thank you John Fogerty!
Yup - we got spoiled growing up to bands like this.
I LOVE Creedence, since I was a child & they first came out.
This is the best song ccr ever made in my professional opinion & you were definitely feelin that jam ,my man. you got good taste in music
I was a kid in the 70's and these songs are burned into my memory...Ray Stevens- The Mississippi Squirrel Revival, anything by Tommy James and the Shondells, Glen Campbell- Whichita Lineman, Tony Orlando and Dawn- Tie a Yellow Ribbon, The Jackson 5- I want you back, Edison Lighthouse - Love grows where my Rosemary goes, Flatt & Scruggs- Ballad of Jed Clampett.

I work 3rd shift in a nursing home and my residents are enjoying the tunes! Stay safe and healthy.
don't you love it when the music speaks to you, it's the best.
They definitely was feeling that one!!
They got that deep southern rock sound. Hard to believe they are from California. Been listening to their music since I was a kid.
Saw them do this at the first Atlanta Pop Festival back in 1969. It was late evening/early morning, little bonfires were burning and Creedence was CHOOGLIN'!
I will also request "Run Through the Jungle", and also "Lodi" is very good..
Yes! Run Through the Jungle & Old Man Down the Road! Favs. 💛
I'll second Lodi, that might be my favorite CCR song
@@tjtampa214 old man down the road is John fogerty solo but yeah great song!
Dusty Wayne Music , I’m with you on Lodi.
"Things got bad, things got worse
I guess you know the tune
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again"
Yes! I HAVE BEEN Spoiled with this Jam All My Life!
Thanks for playing my request Brother. When I saw it up there on my home page I yelled so loud my wife thought I went nuts.
I watched it while eating supper and played the "air fork guitar"!
How about "Run Through the Jungle"? Another very famous song of theirs, Vietnam era.
Born on the Bayou, Green River, Chooglin' & Run through the Jungle: the fab four of CCR's swamp rock (feel free to add others)
he already did Run Through the Jungle in Mid-May...
@@hawaiiguy1
I searched 3 ways before I commented. Don't see it anywhere.
@@deborahcornell171 Me either. I look for his reactions on artists he doesn't have on his playlist by typing 'jamel jamal creedence' in the search window
@@meyerweinstock9567 He's reacted to Born on the Bayou
“Run Through the Jungle” is a must!!
Never heard this CCR song before, but damn, that groove was strong.
Check out Graveyard Train too, bro. Ooby Dooby is fun as hell.
Live in oakland is a better version.
If you like this type of CCR song check out Crazy Otto.
If you've ever watched a movie with the Vietnam war in it, you've heard them. You just don't know it's them.
Oh go look them up. One of the best bands ever.
CCR..can't think of a bad song . never get tired of them
I LOVE this SONG!! It’s awesome that you can groove to this!
Their version of "put a spell on you" Is cool, and dark, also "it came out of the sky" is a really interesting one
I love "I Put A Spell On You"! So creepy sounding!
Chooglin' is the coolest made up word since Stevie Miller's "Pompitous" of love. Thank you so much for this, one of their best jam tunes, a show closer for sure.
Yes!
fall night in the south. Windows down and music up blasting down the twisty 2 lane black tops to PCB at the speed of heat. cooler full of mountain dew and ice. Yeah baby! 1970's rock n roll!!!
I take it you were driving down either 79 or 22...
THANK YOU!! The first time I heard this, it was on a cheap cassette deck with a 2" speaker. I was 13 or 14? Man, it sounded as good to me then as it does now!
Brother Tom never got enough credit for that rhythm guitar
The lyrics will reveal what "chooglin'" means. "...But if you're a natchul man, you gotta ball an' have a good time, an' that's what I call choog-a-line!" Great live performance!!
Jamal, 'chooglin' refers to getting it on - from the song: "You've got to ball and have a good time and that's what I call Choo-ga-line"
Ya nailed it buddy, it's about ballin' all the time......
So happy you're discovering all the great music and that you appreciate the quality and beauty of the music. Everyone can see that you're really feeling it!
Traveling Band LIVE from Europe..life altering
Creedance! Have you done Willie and the Poor Boys yet?
So many good tunes! Where to even start! Down on the Bayou, Looking out my Back Door,
Down On the Corner( Willie and the Poor Boys)
You're right Karen! Thank you, good catch!
David Epperson He would love it!!
John Fogerty is in my top 5 favorite voices of all time with so many other talents as well🖤
Yup, back in the day, almost every garage band that I knew would try and jam on this.
‘Long As I Can See The Light’ cmon!
Absoluteness!!!
I always request, but so far no takers. Great song! (I'll bet once someone does it, everyone will do it!)
I have this tattooed on my arm in honor of my two brothers. We are all CCR fans, and when shit gets rough, you gotta keep on chooglin. Rip Ron and Jerry.
I remember in both CCR concerts I went to, they did this song as an encore. It's no wonder! Their most high energy song.
It was just their last song, CCR did no encores....
@@love-vy1ry I went to so many concerts, I guess I got them mixed up. I do remember the Moody Blues had a few encores, and after the lights went on and they had left, the audience gave them a standing ovation for about 10 minutes trying to get another.
All these great songs from Creedence Clearwater Revival were recorded between 1968 and 1972.
Well Jamel, really the only reason I watched this was to see your reaction when that harp started wailing.
I wasn't disappointed!
Dang that are so many things about the 70s I really miss.
First time hearing this CCR song and damn its good. After 40+ years i thought i heard them all
The lead singer of CCR (John Fogerty) has a bunch of solo tunes that are amazing too. You should check out "Centerfield" or "The Old Man Down The Road".
I think we sometimes forget how great a guitar player John was back in the day. He could jam with the best of 'em.
In high school, I played rhythm guitar in a garage band that covered this song. Every time we performed it, my fingers ached! It was one chord through the whole song!
I grew up with this album on non-stop in the 70s. One of my father's favourites. Thanks so much Jamel.
CCR's "Graveyard Train" is an epic blues tune you ought to check out.
Absolutely
Preach, Chris!
I've been in a number of bands along the way ( i'm a 65 year old former hippie) and i can honestly say that when youre playing and everyone in the band is in the groove with that magical connection between us, in front of an audience that is also groovin along, into the music, its the most fun you can have with your pants on.
„Long as I can see the light“ is one of their best songs Jamel!

You can't miss with CCR...Great band!!
Thank you Jamal for helping us smile through this crazy year...I always know you will lift our spirits...doing God's work ...keep on chooglin👏👏👏
CCR kept it real in the studio and on stage. They didn't fuck around.
How can you not like
Golden Earring
Song: Twilight Zone
Song: Radar Love ❤
Man you must listen to these
CCR always ended their concerts with this one. Brought the house down every time.
@Hugo Stiglitz oh yeah? You see em alot live?
This is true.
Man I love ccr the best band ever
CCR will always give you that stank face maximus!! One of my favorite bands
I freaking love this jam. Thanks for covering it man
Chooglin' From the Urban Dictionary: A rhythm guitar style that employs a deliberately hard up and down stroke against the strings to simulate the motions of pistons or trains. A style made popular in the late 1960s and early 1970s by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Wow, now that is some great info... now I can put a name to guitar 🎸 players when they do that 🎧🎤🎸🎧🎤🎸
Given that...where's Bo Diddley?
read my comment for definition
from CCR, please do "Long as I Can See the Light" and "Someday Never Comes". two of my all time favorites.
Just like on the album Bayou Country, they opened concerts with Born on the Bayou and closed with Keep on Chooglin’.
Blackfoot-Train Train!! I know he would love that song!!! 😃
That and Highway Song...
@@watsonroadster3707 Yes!!
"Lodi" is a great one by CCR. My favorite of their big songs
John Fogerty was and still is the man! A truely gifted talent!
It was all John Fogerty. He wrote the songs. Sang them. Played the lead guitar. Harmonica. He was the whole sound. Great!
‘Lookin out my back door’ is my favorite CCR! The lyrics have cracked me up since I was a kid (1980’s) listening to it on my dad’s record player.
Long As I Can See The Light is my fav CCR tune. Gotta check that one out!
There are at least 5 more prime CCR songs that I think you'll like: "Proud Mary", "Who'll Stop the Rain", "Up Around the Bend", "Green River", and "Lookin' Out the Back Door".
This is such a good tune, love to see you jamming to it man 😂
Rocks. Imagine this guy ordering for the family at the drive through? Coolest singing voice ever.
I hope everyone, especially Jamel, knows that, at 75, John Fogerty is still chooglin' strong. Check out his recent videos where he and his kids perform a lot of CCR's hits from their home during the lockdown.
I love this song, the tempo it keeps throughout the song is awesome! Have you ever heard Leon Russell - Out in the woods
They were doing this over fifty years ago, and John Fogerty is still out there doing it. I saw him at Riverbend in Cincy a couple of Summers ago with ZZ Top and man he ain't missing a lick. In fact, he's better on the guitar than he was back in the day. Once the lockdown is over he will probably be at it again.

Just a incredible time to live for a million reasons
This song also is super spectacular
You must check out their live set at Woodstock it’s epic. Keep on Chooglin brother.
I now have major regret that I never choogled to that song.
Hell yeah this is what I came for. Made my night. This is some serious southern blues rocking shit eating pickin going on damn those solos and harmonica. Wow. Thank you.
This Is..what we Signed Up For 😍😎!
