Bayou Country

Thought it was average

I like a lot of CCR stuff, none of it seemed to be on this album. This seemed just too much CCR, it was overrun with high levels of CCR-ness. Someone turned up the CCR to 11. It's an overbaked cake, a hat on a hat, CCR squared. Even the voice was too much for me. Too CCR, too American, too much.

Not really my thing

Not for me im afraid.

eh, CCR is so generic

Pari hittibiisiä joista en ole koskaan tykännyt. Levyn muut biisit eivät yltäneet edes tuolle tasolle.

I'm giving it two stars, but only because I think Green River will be on here and it's their better album?

demasiado song of the south pa mi gusto

notttttt my vibe

Lame ??

I liked some of it. Not bad.

Simplemente no es para mí. Bastante zzzzzz.

J'avais hâte d'écouter un album avec peu de morceaux. Je ne peux pas dire que j'avais vu juste. En trois mots : long, ennuyeux, répétitif.

sto country mannaggia a diooo

pretty ass

meeeh demasiado country para mi

3/10 - how is this generic hilly billy music on this list? Can't believe this group has 3 albums here

idk about this

Holy shit they wrote Proud Mary! I fucking hate that song. Don't think Creedence Clearwater needed reviving tbh

Lackluster, some of the soloing was cool with the first and last track being the highlights… but god do I loathe proud marry as a song

I just dont like this type of music i hated his voice im sorry

dont like country best to worst Bootleg 2/10 Golly Miss Molly 2/10 Born On The Bayou 2/10 Penthouse Pauper 1/10 Graveyard Train 1/10 Proud Mary ?/10 Keep On Chooglin' ?/10

Proud Mary makes this not a zero star album. Otherwise horrible. Fortunate Son is the only reason these people didn’t die in a bog undiscovered

Imagine the highlight of your album being a harmonica solo

Not really a genre I look forward to but the songs were great for the genre, i'm just not really into country rock music but it was a nice album to listen to. Also, i dont really like the length of these songs as they were quite long, but i do believe they are a great band, just not my cup of tea.

It's a no from me😭😂

i am extremely uninterested in this entire album so far, not a single song is standing out to me this is like the shit they play in a bar for middle aged white guys in leather jackets

not my style

Wow, 60's country is far from my cup of tea. This has not regenerated my will to live.

I grew up hearing a few of these songs on the radio and couldn’t stand them. The full album is just as bad for me.

jaime pas trop mince

Donde esta el country? la portada mola mucho pero el album es muy repitivo, despues de 4 canciones me sigue sonando igual, las canciones en si tambien son muy simples, lo salva un poco "Proud Mary". Menos mal que dura poco.

Not for me.

Too redneck, and podunk for me.

2/10 I just don’t get CCR. This was boring sludgy blues jam that would have been torture if it went on longer. Only decent songs were pub band covers of decent rock & roll songs Best: Good Golly Miss Molly

ruim dms

I can't stand Creedence. Proud Mary is passable, the rest is torture for me to listen to

longos solos de guitarra não foi meu gosto

CCR is from Oakland and thats not anywhere near a bayou

Corny. Turned it off immediately.

Excruciatingly dull.

Did not enjoy

a little boring

I didn't like CCR then and still don't like them. This first album sounds like a second rate garage band. I've had to suffer through three of their albums so far. I'm sure there's more to come.

not my style at all tbh

So fun fact, I can't stand Creedence's music and have been dreading their appearance on this list! It's like this weird aversion that's beyond my control. Sorry!!!! Gave it a shot, but his voice grates on me. PROUD MARY KEEP ON BOYNIN'. Also, chooglin'? What are we doing here?? I fully acknowledge this is a Me Problem, but I will be true to myself and give this one star.

хмммм, скукотища

Proud Mary is a classic, but other than that this felt one note. Other groups did this style of music better in my opinion. And CCR has much better stuff

born on the bayou... the instrumental is groovy. not a fan of the country voice. very weak song and its not going anywhere. 3/10 bootleg...there is a nice call and response from the vocalist and the guitar. nothing too innovative with the lyrics. this is npc music from the 69s. 1 bar solo 😭😭 2/10 graveyard train... 9 minutes huh. idk whats up with country rock but it sounds so annoying and i hate their voices. and the harmony is too basic. nothing sophisticated. ive sat for 8 minutes and this song hasnt moved anywhere yet. not even a chord change. 2/10 Good golly ms molly.... this has slightly more variation but still lacks any emotion. the solo is nice. also the little rap-ish breaks give the song more dynamic. this stands out from the rest 4/10. penthouse pauper...more groove and it feels like we left the old ass farm and we are now in some sort of bar. his voice is slightly more tolerable on this song. I've heard worse. 4/10 proud mary...this one is honestly quite good. his voice sounds amazing on this and there SO MUCH movement on the guitar. very groovy and full instrumental. it serves its purpose. amazing solo and amazing chorus modulation. this has color and emotion. the sun dawning on their old ass farm. human. 5,5/10 keep on chooglin... the backing track is annoying since its only 1 bar repeating itself. feels like listening to a broken record. im getting tired of the samesounding blues improvisations. 4 minutes solo 😭😭. horrible way to end the album. 4/10 overall 3.5/10 album. would never listen again

Not for me. 1/5

All these years I thought I liked CCR 🤔 John Fogarty’s voice is unbearable. The instrumentals are awesome, but the singing. It’s just…annoying I only got halfway through the third song before I called it quits. I’m sorry America. I just don’t like Creedence Clearwater Revival. There I’ve said it

Barf. All sounds the same, I can see why southern idiots love this

Not my genre, too classic. I liked some guitars but no thanks.

Meh... Beginning to think that apart from some very specific albums/bands, I'm not a fan of the 60s/70s!

Nope

(Mai ascoltato prima) Canzoni troppo lunghe senza che succeda molto, mi ha annoiato. Alcune sono carine, ma niente che risalti particolarmente.

Never was a CCR fan and listening to this album confirms it

I hate country-fried rock, and this is one of the worst offenders: the raspy voice, twangy guitar, and oh yay - a fucking harmonica. Absolutely not.

Boooooooring.

Great background music while vacuuming. Zero non-fillers and a 2:40 cover on a 34 minute album. You may start to suspect this is definitely not my kind of music and you'd be absolutely right, but that only proves my low musical event horizon

Bay area boomers pretending to be cajun swamp guys - what a wierd premise. The vibrato-tremelo guitar tone is pretty cool, even though it sounds like Austin Powers. Has this band been ruined by pop culture? Probably, but was there ever really that much there to begin with? Not really. It's not that there's anything really to dislike, just that there's nothing there. It's such dull plodding blues rock with no real stand out elements in terms of performance, song-writing, anything. It's like a high school jamband that hasn't learned how to move beyond a vamp + solo. They put out 3 albums in one year - terrible idea. A tight 30-minute 7-song best of CCR album would be a fine 2* entry in over-played classic rock lane, but 2 of their mid hits and 5 tracks of good ol' chooglin' not so much.

No interest in this. I am definitely not in the target demographic

Muzak boring muzak

DNF'd halfway through this is just NOT my thing ngl

this one didn't touch me. nothing really stood out

Yeah I only like Fortunate Son

Swamp rock is really not my thing. Just couldn't do it.

borrrrrrin

Not for me.

I remember when AC/DC came on the scene. It was like nothing else. And I remember seeing documentaries later that described the shock wave of that guttural voice, screaming out songs like Back in Black. We all thought it was something totally new. But now I realize it was just an echo of John Fogarty from Creedence Clearwater Revival. It’s funny, if you go back and listen to Little Richard‘s version of Good Golly, Miss Molly, even he uses guttural vocalizations from time to time, so it’s nothing new. But even he didn’t sing that way all the time. That seems to be what John Fogerty brought to rock ‘n’ roll. Long before AC/DC and all the Cookie Monster metal bands that would follow. I must say I do like the harmonica in some of these Credence songs, and I appreciate how bluesy they are, and just like Wikipedia said I could hear them trying to imitate Steve Cropper‘s guitar (he of Blues Brothers fame), just not as well. Proud Mary is the best effort here and it still sounds like something you would see in a movie made for boomers. Credence has a dozen or more really great songs, but they’re all on other albums.

Just dreadful. So slow. Other than proud Mary this album really does not do CCR justice

it's nice but it ain't my thing at all

neei ikkje detta igjen send hjelp

Das ist ja mal echt scheiße. Und ich bin erst beim dritten Song. Ich denke, diese Platte hätte verhindert werden MÜSSEN. Ein kollektives Versagen der beteiligten Musiker, Produzenten und Tontechniker. Da spielen echte Menschen auf echten Instrumenten bestenfalls mittelmäßige Songs mit vorhersagbaren Arrangements und es ist eine Qual, ihnen dabei zuhören zu müssen, weil NICHTS dabei rüberkommt. Eine Platte, die mich wütend macht. Ich hasse sie inbrünstig.

Best thing I can say is that the running time of 34 minutes made the miserable listening experience as short as possible. It got ever so slightly interesting with Good Golly Miss Molly. Never trust a hippy.

Nahhh couldn't get into it

bruh

Такое, практически не зашёл, не знаю в какой ситуации он понравится.

"Keep on Chooglin'?" Lmaoooooo

Como me sigan mandando estos discos me voy a dar de baja en el servicio. Me gustan menos del 10% y el resto son una verdadera tortura.

throw it in the trash

Åhh vad jag har svårt för Creedence alltså... Av albumets 7 låtar tål jag inte 3st :) Graveyard train var en plåga. Good golly känns inge kul och Proud Mary har jag aldrig kunnat med hahaha. Jag har svårt för deras swamp rockabilly blues boogiewoogie. /M

Not for me

The first jokes look like you
