This is one of the best, if not the best, pure CCR rockin songs! I'm 69 yrs old and our generation had the absolute best music ever!! Saw them live back in the day and they put on a show you never forget! Love them to this day.
Jamel, I can die a happy man after watching you react to my favorite CCR song.We use to dance our asses off to this and have the best times ever whenever we heard it. If your feet don't move to this your dead. I never thought I would see anyone react to this. Thanks...your the man.

Amazing this band had a run of only four years but their music lives on and on and on with new people discovering them and falling in love with their music. They were musical geniuses.
Chooglin' From the Urban Dictionary: A rhythm guitar style that employs a deliberately hard up and down stroke against the strings to simulate the motions of pistons or trains. A style made popular in the late 1960s and early 1970s by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Most people didn't realize what a talented guitarist John Fogerty was and is. He's also the one who dubbed their style of music 'swamp rock'. Loved this.❤
Jamel, you really nailed it when you said we were spoiled! Those of us who were teens in the 70's knew we had it pretty good musically and now, lo these many years later, it remains true :)
Nobody comes close to prime John Fogerty on vocals, dude was unreal. Even with a diminished voice he still does amazing at 75, and has a full solo catalogue of amazing music.
Release date 1969 . You know why are music was so great back then? It’s because it relayed on musical talent not million dollar computers and auto tune just pure talent.It didn’t matter how you looked or who had the best video it was who had the best sound.Artist competed for who had the best sounding record out.
saw them in Jacksonville FL, '69. Had floor seats, we were all seated until the first cord, then the chairs went to the side and we all stood and had a great time singing along and moving to the groove, lol
The lyrics will reveal what "chooglin'" means. "...But if you're a natchul man, you gotta ball an' have a good time, an' that's what I call choog-a-line!" Great live performance!!
Chooglin' is the coolest made up word since Stevie Miller's "Pompitous" of love. Thank you so much for this, one of their best jam tunes, a show closer for sure.
fall night in the south. Windows down and music up blasting down the twisty 2 lane black tops to PCB at the speed of heat. cooler full of mountain dew and ice. Yeah baby! 1970's rock n roll!!!
One of the best bands of the era... Excellent musicians. Grew up in the sixties/seventies and it was the best of times ... So much great music on the radio... I miss those days...
In high school, I played rhythm guitar in a garage band that covered this song. Every time we performed it, my fingers ached! It was one chord through the whole song!
Saw them do this at the first Atlanta Pop Festival back in 1969. It was late evening/early morning, little bonfires were burning and Creedence was CHOOGLIN'!
CCR is mostly known for great sub-4 minute songs that became hits and staples on radio. Fans of CCR also know them as one of the greatest of all jam bands!... this video is a prime example.
Thank you for taking my suggestion, Jamal. CCR is an American national treasure. There's something about their sound that us Indigenous people on the rez love!
The lead singer of CCR (John Fogerty) has a bunch of solo tunes that are amazing too. You should check out "Centerfield" or "The Old Man Down The Road".
I was a kid in the 70's and these songs are burned into my memory...Ray Stevens- The Mississippi Squirrel Revival, anything by Tommy James and the Shondells, Glen Campbell- Whichita Lineman, Tony Orlando and Dawn- Tie a Yellow Ribbon, The Jackson 5- I want you back, Edison Lighthouse - Love grows where my Rosemary goes, Flatt & Scruggs- Ballad of Jed Clampett. I love watching your reactions to some of the songs I've heard most of my life, but like you I also hear tunes and groups I somehow missed discovering while growing up! Who knew?😂. Keep'em coming. I work 3rd shift in a nursing home and my residents are enjoying the tunes! Stay safe and healthy.
@@love-vy1ry I went to so many concerts, I guess I got them mixed up. I do remember the Moody Blues had a few encores, and after the lights went on and they had left, the audience gave them a standing ovation for about 10 minutes trying to get another.
Thanks for playing my request Brother. When I saw it up there on my home page I yelled so loud my wife thought I went nuts. I watched it while eating supper and played the "air fork guitar"!
THANK YOU!! The first time I heard this, it was on a cheap cassette deck with a 2" speaker. I was 13 or 14? Man, it sounded as good to me then as it does now!
I was 14 when this hit the air. Wasn t on the radio that much but my COOLEST friends had the newest technology.....8 track.....YEEHHHHAAAAAWWW!!!! THE 60 s was GOOD to ROCK AND ROLL!!!
They were doing this over fifty years ago, and John Fogerty is still out there doing it. I saw him at Riverbend in Cincy a couple of Summers ago with ZZ Top and man he ain't missing a lick. In fact, he's better on the guitar than he was back in the day. Once the lockdown is over he will probably be at it again. Plus, he and his sons have been posting videos on RUclips making music from their home. He don't know how to do anything else but play.
I hope everyone, especially Jamel, knows that, at 75, John Fogerty is still chooglin' strong. Check out his recent videos where he and his kids perform a lot of CCR's hits from their home during the lockdown.
I'm 63 and enjoy CCR for sure. Have one of their best hit albums. And yet I don't recall hearing this song? It's awesome! Thank you and I'm so glad this came up on my suggestions.
I've been in a number of bands along the way ( i'm a 65 year old former hippie) and i can honestly say that when youre playing and everyone in the band is in the groove with that magical connection between us, in front of an audience that is also groovin along, into the music, its the most fun you can have with your pants on.
One of the best jam sessions from the 60s on record. Their second LP 'Bayou Country' also has Proud Mary and Born on the Bayou thereon. Great sound!!!!!
When we first heard CCR we assumed they were from down in the bayou. What a surprise to find out they were from San Francisco. haha. I never got to see them but I saw John Fogerty in Vegas some years ago. Great show!
I have this tattooed on my arm in honor of my two brothers. We are all CCR fans, and when shit gets rough, you gotta keep on chooglin. Rip Ron and Jerry.
When these boys went down into the swamps of Louisiana they must of met some Cajuns cause they come out of their with so much soul an rock that my personal opinion no one has topped them yet.
Just so you know, they never went down to Louisiana - their whole time as CCR, except for touring, was spent holed up in Northern CA. That being said, I thought the same thing when I heard my first CCR tune - 'Green River'
@@lynngatlin4469 Yes, that's why I referred to their touring, but they didn't get their style from traveling down there and getting inspired. They got it while living in the Berkley area of CA listening to that music. that's all, the music's great and it IS very much influence by Cajun/Bayou music without a doubt.
@@stoneblue1795 everyone knows he is from California but the blues didn't come from California it came from the south an there blues an soul in is music is it not or am I just hearing things
Brother Jamal, can you please react to Neil Diamond's music? "Cherry, Cherry" from Hot August Night 1972 is incredible. "I Am...I Said" live from 1976. And also "Hello Again" and "Love On The Rocks" from The Jazz Singer soundtrack audio. Please give him a shot. Thanks bro!
Lee Fertwayne even the great Neil Diamond had a few song line clunkers though. I am, I said to no one there. And no one heard a word, not even the chair? First, why are you talking to nobody? Second, I didn’t know chairs had ears. lol
There are at least 5 more prime CCR songs that I think you'll like: "Proud Mary", "Who'll Stop the Rain", "Up Around the Bend", "Green River", and "Lookin' Out the Back Door".
I was not aware of this song by CCR. .. But from the opening notes, my first thought was: "We are about to get an update on the groin injury, because he's going to be dancing to this one!" Not six seconds later the shoulders are moving and the head is bobbing... 😂😂😂😂😂 GREAT TUNE! Great reaction my good man!
So happy you're discovering all the great music and that you appreciate the quality and beauty of the music. Everyone can see that you're really feeling it!
Imagine being 19 yrs. old with a car full friends rolling down the road with the 8 track blasting this. What a time we had!
Yeah... that time never came back.... It's so sad...
Still doing this today, 23 yr old VW owner, nothing past 1980 gets played in my car!
I must have been on a different road doing the same
Bro that sounds fucken awesome!!! I was born in the wrong era!!
Good times coming down baby❤
We were spoiled didn't know it
Music-wise I think we knew it.
I knew we were spoiled, Always will be. It's also called discerning
Jamel, u have exquisite taste always! Love to see u diggin what I grew up on in high school. Look at the year this was recorded. Older, sick, so what...still jammin!!!
This isn't the 3 minute radio cut... 😁
Who'll stop the rain. Everything they did was great
Yes it was!
Like literally almost everything!!! For a band that wasn't together too long unfortunately they were so underrated
Mardi Gras was a disappointment.
This is one of the best, if not the best, pure CCR rockin songs! I'm 69 yrs old and our generation had the absolute best music ever!! Saw them live back in the day and they put on a show you never forget! Love them to this day.
agree 69 also I was a fan from 1969 on
Oh yes, Creedence. "Lookin' Out My Back Door" "Bad Moon Rising" "Green River" "Born on the Bayou"
Jamel, I can die a happy man after watching you react to my favorite CCR song.We use to dance our asses off to this and have the best times ever whenever we heard it. If your feet don't move to this your dead. I never thought I would see anyone react to this. Thanks...your the man.
How about "Run Through the Jungle"? Another very famous song of theirs, Vietnam era.
Born on the Bayou, Green River, Chooglin' & Run through the Jungle: the fab four of CCR's swamp rock (feel free to add others)

‘Long As I Can See The Light’ cmon!
Absoluteness!!!
I always request, but so far no takers. Great song! (I'll bet once someone does it, everyone will do it!)
Amazing this band had a run of only four years but their music lives on and on and on with new people discovering them and falling in love with their music. They were musical geniuses.
One of the greatest bands ever.
Цалкам згодны.
Never heard this CCR song before, but damn, that groove was strong.
Check out Graveyard Train too, bro. Ooby Dooby is fun as hell.
Live in oakland is a better version.
If you like this type of CCR song check out Crazy Otto.
If you've ever watched a movie with the Vietnam war in it, you've heard them. You just don't know it's them.
Oh go look them up. One of the best bands ever.

We had no idea we could lose that music creating talents! Spoiled indeed!
I will also request "Run Through the Jungle", and also "Lodi" is very good..
Yes! Run Through the Jungle & Old Man Down the Road! Favs. 💛
I'll second Lodi, that might be my favorite CCR song
@@tjtampa214 old man down the road is John fogerty solo but yeah great song!
Dusty Wayne Music , I’m with you on Lodi.
"Things got bad, things got worse
I guess you know the tune

Man, we were sure spoilt for choice back in the day! Feeling blessed to have lived through it. Peace.
Jamal, 'chooglin' refers to getting it on - from the song: "You've got to ball and have a good time and that's what I call Choo-ga-line"
Ya nailed it buddy, it's about ballin' all the time......
saw them in Jacksonville FL, '69. Had floor seats, we were all seated until the first cord, then the chairs went to the side and we all stood and had a great time singing along and moving to the groove, lol
Their version of "put a spell on you" Is cool, and dark, also "it came out of the sky" is a really interesting one
I love "I Put A Spell On You"! So creepy sounding!
CCR..can't think of a bad song . never get tired of them
So many great bands in the 60’s and 70’s and we thought it would always be that way
CCR always ended their concerts with this one. Brought the house down every time.
@Hugo Stiglitz oh yeah? You see em alot live?
This is true.
I now have major regret that I never choogled to that song.
I love when bands incorporate the harmonica into their music. Blues-Blues-Blues!
Yup, back in the day, almost every garage band that I knew would try and jam on this.
The lyrics will reveal what "chooglin'" means. "...But if you're a natchul man, you gotta ball an' have a good time, an' that's what I call choog-a-line!" Great live performance!!
Chooglin' is the coolest made up word since Stevie Miller's "Pompitous" of love. Thank you so much for this, one of their best jam tunes, a show closer for sure.
Yes!
late 60’s and the 70’s what a time for great music✌️
It was all John Fogerty. He wrote the songs. Sang them. Played the lead guitar. Harmonica. He was the whole sound. Great!
fall night in the south. Windows down and music up blasting down the twisty 2 lane black tops to PCB at the speed of heat. cooler full of mountain dew and ice. Yeah baby! 1970's rock n roll!!!

love that gritty sound, they weren't jammin, they were chooglin LOL
Saw them do this at the first Atlanta Pop Festival back in 1969. It was late evening/early morning, little bonfires were burning and Creedence was CHOOGLIN'!
That guitar work is cleaning out my ears. Thank you John Fogerty!
CCR's "Graveyard Train" is an epic blues tune you ought to check out.
Absolutely
Preach, Chris!

Down On the Corner( Willie and the Poor Boys)
You're right Karen! Thank you, good catch!
David Epperson He would love it!!
I think we sometimes forget how great a guitar player John was back in the day. He could jam with the best of 'em.
First time hearing this CCR song and damn its good. After 40+ years i thought i heard them all
I remember in both CCR concerts I went to, they did this song as an encore. It's no wonder! Their most high energy song.
It was just their last song, CCR did no encores....

@@watsonroadster3707 Yes!!
„Long as I can see the light“ is one of their best songs Jamel!
John Fogerty is in my top 5 favorite voices of all time with so many other talents as well🖤
Keep on Chooglin
Best unknown masterpiece ever
Just listen
This and " Pagan Baby" by Credence are my favorite jam songs by this phenomenal group.
I saw CCR in concert back in the very early 70's. They played this song and I was right up near the stage. We were definitely rockin' out.
I was 14 when this hit the air. Wasn t on the radio that much but my COOLEST friends had the newest technology.....8 track.....YEEHHHHAAAAAWWW!!!! THE 60 s was GOOD to ROCK AND ROLL!!!
John Fogerty was and still is the man! A truely gifted talent!
I LOVE this SONG!! It’s awesome that you can groove to this!
I LOVE Creedence, since I was a child & they first came out.
"Lodi" is a great one by CCR. My favorite of their big songs
Yup - we got spoiled growing up to bands like this.
CCR is one of the meanest, tightest bands in the business. A John Fogerty original this song like many of CCR’s catalogue
They were doing this over fifty years ago, and John Fogerty is still out there doing it. I saw him at Riverbend in Cincy a couple of Summers ago with ZZ Top and man he ain't missing a lick.

They got that deep southern rock sound. Hard to believe they are from California. Been listening to their music since I was a kid.

CCR one of the best bands of the late 60’s - 70’s !
If you really liked this one, you'd probably really like 'Susie Q' by CCR.
He did...about 3 weeks ago.
don't you love it when the music speaks to you, it's the best.
I'm 63 and enjoy CCR for sure. Have one of their best hit albums. And yet I don't recall hearing this song? It's awesome! Thank you and I'm so glad this came up on my suggestions.
Request of the day is Lee Michaels "Do You Know What I Mean"
saw him open for Grand Funk in Toronto, he bought the house down with that song.
"hoo!"
Rocks. Imagine this guy ordering for the family at the drive through? Coolest singing voice ever.
from CCR, please do "Long as I Can See the Light" and "Someday Never Comes". two of my all time favorites.
I've been in a number of bands along the way ( i'm a 65 year old former hippie) and i can honestly say that when youre playing and everyone in the band is in the groove with that magical connection between us, in front of an audience that is also groovin along, into the music, its the most fun you can have with your pants on.
