Creedence Clearwater Revival - John Foggarty


I just picked up his new disc in which various artists all collaborate in re-doing some of CCR's old favorites. Great disc and most of all great music. I had a few of their albums back - '' in the day'' and stupidly traded them or gave them away. I would like to re-start up CCR's collection on disc as I do see where many of them have been remastered.....let me know your thoughts on which one to start with.

During the trial Fogerty sat on the witness stand with his guitar and ran through several of his songs. Basically he told the court "you see, your honor--they ALL sound the same!"
Chronicle and Chronicle Volume 2 pretty much do the trick--40 songs that cover it well. But die-hard fans will want the original albums, I guess. I'm good with the 40 selected tracks--those two CD's do not leave me wanting.

The "live at Royal Albert Hall" is a nice change of pace from the recorded versions that you've heard a million times.
I'm not sure what you're point is, but Fogerty was playing country and bluegrass 40 years ago. Check out The Blue Ridge Rangers LP. It's good.
