    My father blessed me with having this music in our home when I was a child. I grew to love CCR and still listen to them to this day. Well, on the night of his death my brothers and I reminisced about our dad, and we played nothing but CCR that night, and when this song came on my eyes moistened and all of us with sad knowing smiles seemingly all seemed to say," yes this is why dad loved this music it touches the soul'. It was a glorious way to say goodbye, together. Thank you for this reaction.

      The "Midnight Special" TV show started out as an election special to get young people out to vote. NBC didn't even realize they had much of an audience after midnight. Rating services didn't tally viewership between midnight and 6 AM. It was as a result of overwhelming viewer mail that the show became a weekly series. They also quickly filled the midnight spot, Monday to Thursday with "The Tomorrow Show", with Tom Snyder. It was the beginning of late night network television. Without these breakthrough shows, there would be no "Late Night" or any of it's competitors today.

    My Daddy (who turned 77 today!) raised me on CCR. About 10 years ago I saw John Fogerty was having a concert a couple of hours away and got 2nd row tix for me and my Dad. Awesome concert, but my Dad isn't one to sing along or anything. Song #17 "Midnight Special"... Daddy was singing to that one! We ran into Fogerty at Disneyland a few months after we saw him at another concert years later and he talked with us for about 5 minutes or so. Quiet guy, but that made our day!

    The Midnight Special was actually a train that passed along by a prison in Sugar Land, Texas. The light refers to the beam from the engine car passing through the prison grounds. At least that's the story. Sugar Land is a city southwest of Houston.

    I just found you guys shortly and I'm so pleased to see a couple of younger people loving CCR, my all time favorite band. Midnight Special is my #2 (behind Proud Mary) Creedence track. I guess I'm about half way through the CCR videos and look forward to watching them all. If you want to hear yet another side of CCR check out Ramble Tamble from Cosmo's Factory. A blistering rocker; my only regret from Creedence is that they didn't cut loose like this one more often.

    If you watch the Movie, "Cool Hand Luke" from the mid-'60s, about a bunch of prisoners in a southern work prison, one of the inmates in the open bay barracks plays and sings this on a worn out acoustic guitar. It's an old traditional blues song.

    @dancoughlin3331 Год назад +3

    John Fogerty grew up in El Cerrito California near Berkeley. He may have been drawn to music from the South, including blues and country but his roots were West coast. Many bands in the 60's and 70's didn't stick to one specific genre. Jerry Garcia played blue grass and Bob Dylan had a great album called Nashville Skyline.

    Hey guys, I really enjoy your reviews. It makes me feel like I'm hearing these songs I grew up for the first time again. You have to do "Long as I can see the light." It has some really great vocal styling by Fogerty and a really nice sax solo. Thanks!

    Saw John Forgerty in concert a few years ago. One of the best concerts I have ever gone to. The audience sang along to all of his song. His son played with him too.

    This song is in the opening of the movie, The Twilight Zone, with Dan Akryod. I'm pretty sure, it's been a few decades since I've seen it.

    This has always been my favorite CCR song. I would listen to my mom's records on a record player as a small child and this one was played the most! Bad Moon Rising was my second favorite! Cotton Fields is a good one too!

    I had to laugh, Amber, because you said country bumpkin and instantly reminded of a song by that name sung by Cal Smith, very old country and I bet you’d love it! I just found it on RUclips, so it’s there!

    I was fortunate to attend three CCR concerts (1970, 1971, 1972.) at the Sam Houston Coliseum in Houston, Tx., as a teen. They had everyone up, dancing and singing; this one, in particular. Doug Clifford's drumming, "bum, ba dum, bum ba dum" on "The Midnight Special" was like a call for everyone to jump up. John Fogerty (lead guitar and vocals), Tom Fogerty (underrated rhythm guitarist with a voice much like his younger brother's), and Stu Cook (excellent bass guitarist) set the house on fire. The Coliseum was situated on or near Buffalo Bayou, as I recall, and had a cavernous interior and echo chamber effect that carried the music outside to the streets--my parents who took us and came to pick us up from these concerts attested to that fact. The location made it extra special when they launched into "Born On The Bayou". Houston is known as "The Bayou City".

    Musicology moment: The Midnight Special is an important American classic song. It's roots are itinerant roadhouse blues of north Texas / Oklahoma cotton country, The most famous recording from 1934, Huddie William "Lead Belly" Ledbetter recorded at Angola Prison for Library of Congress by John and Alan Lomax (The Lomax Recordings), researchers given a grant by the government Works Progress Administration (WPA). These recordings, particularly Lead Belly's slack guitar stylings, because they were novel and available in public libraries across the country for free during the Depression, are acknowledged to be the foundation of featuring guitar as lead instrument in Rhythm & Blues and eventually to the style we recognize as Rock 'n Roll

    Keep On Chooglin’ (live version) will blow your socks off, and you’ll find out what Chooglin’ is. Also, you should really check out his post-CCR stuff. Some of his absolute best work. Rambunctious Boy and Hot Rod Heart just to name two but not a bad song in his solo work at all. My favorite artist hands down and even more amazing live.

    The Late Great Muddy Waters and Johnny 'Guitar" Watson wrote and played the original. CCR asked those 2 personally for permission to cover this song. One condition, just respect the true meaning of the song. And as you hear, CCR put some respect on that song.

    You guys MUST hit the long (8:40 m) version of "Suzie Q". I just searched your history, and I don't see it.
    "Suzie Q" was their break-out hit and it really and truly is a masterpiece. The long version is just to die for. It has the most amazing hook and rhythm that you've EVER heard. Nobody had ever done anything like it. The long version sets up a groove that wraps its arms around you and you gently guides you into the sauce -- where you stay lost and comfortable until the end. It is just marvelous regardless of your state of consciousness, and works really well after a little bit of -- well, you get my drift.

    Hey Rob Squad, I have been watching you since day one and have watched you grow and dig into so many great artists! If you are ready, there's a great documentary on folk music, and it is filmed in NY. Another Day Another Time is a must watch. Many great artists you may ot may not have heard of perform in it. You won't be disappointed.

    Written and recorded in the early 20's, Lead belly, the iconic Bluesman recorded it. Many versions exist, but this is the one most known.
