The font for the songs is so small that he wasn't able to read how loaded the hits were on this album without his glasses. Cosmo's Factory is CCR's most commercially successful studio album with over 9 million sold. Their second-most successful studio album is Willy and the Poor Boys with 5.5 million sold. The sales of singles released from Cosmo's Factory also outpaced their other albums by a hefty margin.

Cosmo's Factory has no hits? It's the studio album with the most hits: Travelin' Band Who'll Stop the Rain Run Through the Jungle Up Around the Bend Looking Out My Back Door Long as I Can See the Light I Heard it Through the Grapevine (cover)

Every time I hear CCR, especially live clips like when they played on the Ed Sullivan show, I am always dumb-struck by how AMAZING John Fogerty's vocals sound. His voice just pops out of the stereo - one of the greatest singer/songwriter's in the history of rock music. They went up against The Beatles and knocked them off in 1969 in terms of album sales. Too bad that not only did they get totally screwed over by Fantasy Records, but that the other 3 members completely betrayed Fogerty by taking him to court as well, and also taking the side of Saul Zaentz, the scumbag owner of Fantasy Records.

You seem to know quite a bit about CCR, so how is it that you don’t know that almost every song on this album was a “known” song and/or hit?!! Are you kidding me?😆 There are 7 major CCR hits on this album! Lmao
