Nowadays superstar bands release an album no more frequently than once a year, or in many cases once every two or three years. But in 1969, there was simply no stopping Creedence Clearwater Revival. 1969 proved to be an epic year in the band’s too-short history. In that year alone they released three Top Ten albums, had four hit singles (charting at #2, #2, #2 and #3, respectively) with three additional charting B-sides. They even found time to record a fourth chart-topping album released the following year.
It was in January 1969 that Creedence released the first of its three LPs that year, Bayou Country. The product of frontman/songwriter John Fogerty’s fascination with Louisiana swamp-rock and R&B, the album contained the hits “Proud Mary” and “Born on the Bayou” and key FM radio tracks “Graveyard Train,” “Keep On Choogling” and a cover of Little Richard’s “Good Golly Miss Molly.” According to AllMusic.com, “Bayou Country announces that CCR had discovered its sound.”
