The band's genius was their ability to accomplish this with the economic, primal power of a classic rockabilly ensemble. The key elements of Creedence had been woodshedding in bar bands for about a decade before their breakthrough to national success in the late '60s. By the mid-'60s, with a few hopelessly obscure recordings under their belt, the band -- including Tom and John with two high-school friends, drummer Doug Clifford and bassist Stu Cook -- signed to Fantasy, releasing several singles as the Golliwogs that went nowhere.
The group only found themselves when John took firm reins over the band's direction, singing and writing virtually all of their material. On their first album, 's Creedence Clearwater Revival, the group played it both ways, offering extended, quasi-psychedelic workouts of the '50s classics 'I Put a Spell on You' and 'Suzie-Q.
When the Beatles broke up in early , CCR was the only other act that provided any competition in the fine art of crafting bold, super-catchy artistic statements that soared to the upper reaches of the charts every three or four months. Although they hailed from the San Francisco area, they rarely succumbed to the psychedelic indulgences of the era. John Fogerty also proved adept at voicing the concerns of the working class in songs like 'Fortunate Son,' as well as partying with as much funk as any white rock band would muster on 'Travelin' Band' and 'Down on the Corner.
