It has been eight years Creedence Clearwater Revival’ last studio CD, “The Concert” which won Array Academy Awards� and was nominated for album of the year. For older fans The Concert will put a massive smile accross your face. On The Concert album, Creedence Clearwater Revival have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. This is one of the best cd’s i have heard through the whole thing.
This song has very few things relative to that of it’s predecessor. In Tombstone Shadow Creedence Clearwater Revival is at his best. Music and lyrics of Don’t Look Now creates, for me, fertile ground for daydreaming. The sound in Travelin’ Band is really warm and Creedence Clearwater Revival’s signature voice is still very much present. Who’ll Stop The Rain is the most memorable and perfect. Bad Moon Rising (2:17) a good melody. This track is almost perfect, instrumentals and vocals combine awesomely. Fortunate Son is simply exquisite. Creedence Clearwater Revival sings Commotion in such a comforting, confident voice that you can’t help but be moved. The Midnight Special is maybe the best thing the group’s ever done. Night Time Is The Right Time gives taste of what makes Creedence Clearwater Revival special as a musician. Down On The Corner is perfect. Keep On Chooglin’ is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after The Concert have ended.
