Creedence Clearwater Revival - Woodstock Festival 1969

Image
This is Creedence Clearwater Revival , live at Woodstock. John Fogerty felt the band's performance was below standard on the night, this was after all CCR at their peak of success both live and commercially. As a result their concert did not appear on the Woodstock soundtrack or film, (several CCR tracks from the event were included in the 1990s commemorative box set.) The band also complained that they had to take the stage at three in the morning because The Grateful Dead had jammed far past their scheduled set time, (and many of the audience had gone to sleep - no change there then - sorry Dead-Heads). All of that said and having listened to this boot of the show, I have to say I think they were harsh on themselves, this is full on CCR, at a true moment in musical history. This then is Creedence Clearwater Revival on August 16th 1969, live at Woodstock. Set List: 01 Born on the Bayou 02 Green River 03 Ninity Nine and a Half 04 Bootleg 05 Commotion 06 Bad Moon

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Closing Night - Fillmore West 1971

Image
This is Creedence Clearwater Revival live on the closing night of the Fillmore West in San Francisco, way back in 1971. Ironically the band were starting to fall apart at this time, following an intense period of recording and touring that had lasted since the late 1960's, during which they achieved considerable critical acclaim, along with a number of highly successful albums. Recognising the milestone that was the Fillmore West closing, the band performed a concert that was relevant, and a must for any fan of the band, or the era. This then is Creedence Clearwater Revival at the Fillmore West closing night, San Francisco, California, USA, on July 4th 1971. The set list includes the source for the concert KSAN FM, possibly the most appreciated alternative radio source in the USA at that time. 01) intro before 1st song 1:47 02) Born On The Bayou 5:22 03) Green River 3:55 04) It Came Out Of The Sky 3:31 05) Door To Door 3:26 06) Travelin' Band 3:29 07) Fortunate Son 2:20
