A-let me remember things I love, Lord
Stoppin' at the log where catfish bite
Walkin' along the river road at night
Barefoot girls dancin' in the moonlight
I can hear the bullfrog callin' me home
Wonder if my rope's still hangin' to the tree, ho
Love to kick my feet 'way down the shallow water
Shoo, fly, dragonfly, get back, you mother
Pick up a flat rock; skip it across Green River
Well!
Up at Cody's camp I spent my days, Lord
With flat-car riders and cross-tie walkers
Old Cody Junior took me over
Said, "You're gonna find the world be smolderin'
And if you get a-lost, come on home to Green River"
Well!
Come on home

Both songs sound quite the same in my ears.

John wrote in the key of E, hence why they all sound very much the same. My late friend called CCR the John Fogery and the Key of E band.
They also weren't afraid to place the drums and bass off center. In the 70's it became pretty standard to center the drums and bass.

I didn't know if they were ever that concerned with the way things change and happen during different points in time. You learn something every day.
Wow! Excellent recall from something that went down almost 45 YEARS AGO! Music really does bring back the memories.
My older brother also bought this and played it constantly. If I close my eyes, I can still hear "Lodi" coming up from our basement.
He also attempted to pull off J. Fogerty's "leather vest over flannel" look, with decidedly piss-poor results, as he was built like an offensive lineman back in his high-school days. Still is!
Oh, he is on...something:

Creedence Clearwater Revival by wnick87

Creedence Clearwater Revival (commonly referred to by its initials CCR or simply as Creedence) was a southern rock American rock band. Though hailing from the Bay Area of California, the group was influenced by the swamp blues genre that came out of south Louisiana in the late 1950s and early to mid-1960s.
Why I love them - CCR just has that vintage rock n' roll sound. I love the intensity that they bring to the table through their music — particularly the rockin' guitar solos and the voice of John Fogerty.
This music is perfect for drivin' into the sunset through Utah. Try it sometime. Roll down the windows and put on Green River followed by their version of I heard it through the grapevine. ~wnick87

Far out, Catherwood. Just roll a couple of bombers and leave them on the side table.

I agree with the top comment about the great quality of the production and mixing: spot on.
And yeah, it's pretty similar to some of their other songs. But, you know, it's still great overall, and I'm very much enjoying and appreciating it today.
