Creedence Clearwater Revival | Born On The Bayou | Reaction

Vocally one of my favorite bands ever

[@tyronesharp401]

One of the most iconic voices in rock. Mr John Fogerty.

[@Sincopare]

It's not just the voice, alone is legendary. It's the guitar. It's the composition. It's the grit and sweat!

[@bessiesobjack8647]

Exactly

[@carterrandal9185]

1st concert I ever saw back in 1971. They played 31 songs. Albert King and Muddy Waters warmed things up. 3 and a half hours non stop for $5.50. Oh yes, I'm 68 y/o and still listen too them.

[@nadinemarie3811]

John Fogerty's vocals are so recognizable. No one else sounds like him. 🔥

[@polyscroll]

Yep, no one on the planet!

[@dlmullins9054]

I grew up listening to CCR. Most under rated band ever.

[@jefffournier9986]

I was a Yankee hiking deep in the Bayous in La fishing when I first heard this song and been loving it ever since. I use to play softball for the Bayou Blasters anybody out there remember them. Lol.

[@beetmnt]

Watching you discover and react to CCR is making me so happy!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@sharonstuhlmiller1757]

Why does it make us happy, but it does lol!

[@jeffreyjenkins1242]

Great reaction! What always amazed me, having grown up along the River, is how well they captured that delta vibe when they were from the San Francisco Bay area. Been listening to CCR since the ‘60s.

[@eamonperkins8061]

city boys hanker for country country boys hanker for country !

[@littlebearblackthroatedwind]

Jeffrey Jenkins I was floored the day I found out they were from Cali.

[@utGort]

You make it sound like there is only one reiver and one delta. Hint thee are both out in the SF bay area.

[@markhardwicke5345]

Anybody tell this guy about the Allman Brothers? Dude, go react to Whipping Post and Soulshine right now!

[@nerthus4685]

They are from the SF Bay Delta, which very much like the south in miniature. From Richmond to Stockton and Sacramento.

[@heathwirt8919]

The band is so tight and John Forgerty's voice is so soulful, just a perfect combination. Love their music.

[@Teresa7087]

My fav group of all time, hands down. Fogerty is a HUGE talent. Distinctive voice, great guitarist too. Amazing songwriter. He WAS CCR.

[@Deliquescentinsight]

The conviction, the soul, the voice!

[@Coolrockndad]

CCR's version of "I Heard It Through The Grapevine". An 11 minute great.

[@skrozar2000]

CCR.............Suzie Q and Sweet Hitchhiker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 more greats

[@tuffguy007]

Loved the reaction when Fogerty starts up "Oh when I was just a little boy..." -- I knew it was coming!

[@KoffeeKat18]

You can literally see the mist rising, feel the humidity, and feel the breeze... YES!

[@shirleykelly9971]

This is one of those legendary bands from the late 60s and 70s that was at Woodstock and John Fogerty is still singing to this day

[@bobstrauss9413]

John Fogerty listened to the old black blues singers and took those voices into rock and roll. He created an original sound that few can duplicate.

[@Salguine]

John Fogerty's vocal on "I Put a Spell On You" will peel the paint off your walls.

[@H1nth]

One of my favourite bands of all time🦋

[@MrCtr210]

Dude... I gotta pause. You put the biggest smile on my face enjoying CCR. Man.. 8-)

[@TheMike_I]

Creedence does the original Proud Mary

[@rogerbyington5640]

I have the original single. A side is proud Mary, B side is born on the bayou.

[@kennybrew100]

As an avid CCR fan two words "GREEN RIVER" !!!!!! That is all....have a nice day.

[@chrisredenbach7753]

Love watching your joy!

[@pureblood9514]

DUDE, "LONG AS I CAN SEE THE LIGHT". BY CREDENCE. WILL BLOW YOUR EFFIN MIND

[@NoLegalPlunder]

This right here. Yes. This song is utterly amazing.

[@lawrenceeason8007]

No doubt their #1 swamp rock tune. #2 has to be "Run through the jungle" with some great harmonica too

[@rayniecox7683]

He's been doing music from home during these rough times including desk top concert with 3 of his 4 kids. At 72, he sounds pretty good.

[@stevehodder647]

Ccr kicking ass.

[@JazzyBabe56]

OMG One of my absolute faves!!! - this was my soundtrack growing up - yeah I'm old....so glad you are discovering the music that inspired my generation! ♥

[@alleneh]

What surprises some people is to learn they're a band from the San Francisco Bay Area and not from the south.

[@systemsoversymptomsvisionw9806]

CCR was the greatest rock band of all time, and John Fogerty is the greatest song writer and front man. I saw him recently, and he's still rocking in his 70s!!!

[@pamelahofman1785]

Love when you jump in a sing and bar or two. You sound great!

[@ElusvOptmst1]

One of San Francisco Bay Area's favorite groups, CCR!

[@margiewhitehead2453]

Always been one of my favorites .

[@ABlastfromthePast]

This song fills my prescription for "more cowbell"

[@michaeldeegan2355]

Just found you and subscribed. Over the moon with your reactions on CCR. I'm from UK and was introduced to these y my friend Dave. Over the years I know these are my favourite group. You should watch Run Through the Jungle matched with Vietnam footage. So pleased with your awesome reaction to them. They were special John Fogerty has lots on KZbin everybody wants to join him on stage and play. Awesome.

[@rachellewalters8111]

CCR makes my top 5 favorite bands! 👐

[@kevinguyette634]

Great reaction to an awesome band, they had their shit together, music wise

[@russellgtyler8288]

Saw credence in Houston in the late 60s. Only concert I ever attended that the live performance was every bit as good as the studio version. Making sure my grandkids grow up knowing what music is supposed to sound like. Appreciate younger people discovering the music of my generation. Enjoy.

[@Golddust427]

Fav CCR song. Great to dance to.

My Dad loved this group. He also liked. Suzy Q

Not bad for Berkley students who have never seen a bayou

[@bradlaue1718]

I think they went to El Cerrito High.

[@SpaceCattttt]

You don't have to see it to smell it. All the world's a swamp.

[@clintatk]

You can't do nothin bout where your folks birthed you, but you can follow your soul as soon as you fly the nest, bro.

[@rkernell]

@@clintatk The closest that Fogerty got to the bayou was Fort Knox. We lived in Morgan City, Louisiana where my sister was born and CCR's music couldn't be more authentic Cajun than if he was born on the Atchafalaya...

[@clintatk]

@@rkernell I was born in St Charles Parrish. I'm partial to Zydeco and New Orleans jazz, but growing up I always liked the passion and wit in his songs. I mean, Myles Davis was from the Mid West, but as soon as he could he was off to New York City. 👍

[@mrichards6795]

Great reaction! One of America's great bands.

[@paulryan7159]

John fogerty is 71 and still sings like that.

Up around the bend, it's a bender!

[@johnandrews3151]

CCR/Suzie Q and the 10 minute epic I Heard It Through The Grapevine. By the way, in 1970, CCR was the only recording act that outsold the Beatles. The prior six years were dominated by the Beatles and they outsold everybody else.

[@chrstnanomee7494]

John Andrews OMG yes, heard it through the grapevine! CCR does such a good job!

[@larryd4352]

I had every LP they put out....and you're so correct...in 1970, when I was 13 years old...CCR was the King of the airways...and they were the king's of music! John Fogerty was not only a great singer and guitarist...he was also a great song writer. He was inducted into the Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Fame in 1993....

Great job, so fun to watch, as a older guy who was a young man back when CCR came out.

One of the best rythym sections in music history!

[@KillerNetDog]

CCR has a deep catalog of awesome tunes.. You have heard them even if you don't know it.. "Heard it through the grapevine', "Fortunate Son" and others have been in a lot of movies and such.

[@thelibrarian3037]

Ooh, Swamp Rock! No one else could do what CCR did, including inventing their own language, like ‘choogling’.

[@brucecronin6396]

1969, great year, great album, great reaction !!

[@ninthsunn]

it keep saying this is my favourite each time i hear their songs 🙈 ccr were at their high peak in my country throughout mid 70s, they were my last memories of cambodia where i left the country 40 odd years. your reactions said it all, thanks for this!

[@MarkLeonTanner]

First time seeing you... I'm a fan... This is one of my favorite performances of all time... I really enjoyed your reaction... Peace...

[@harrymiram6621]

CCR's music became known as Swamp Rock, mainly coz of John Fogerty's vocal stylings/influence & the Memphis blues inspiration!

John Fogerty, the lead singer, is still going strong. He has been doing videos from home with his (grown) children during this covid-19 BS. CCR classics, they are really good.
