not as many top hits as i thought per my wife's opinion. happy with the source and shipping. not the seller's fault.
So, thanks for the effort anyway. The second half of "Suzie Q." What a joke. It would have fit on this CD, in addition, to having even one more bonus track, like "Born on a Bayou" or "Midnight Special".Oh well, I guess I'll just take what they give us and collect my own perceived shortcomings and make my own second Chronicles CD. Hell, I could even make a second collection that includes John Fogerty's "Rock and Roll Girls", "Centerfold", and "The Old Man Down the Road" from 1984. To me, they sound like a group that should have come from Louisiana or Southern Mississippi because of their deep Delta bluesy swamp rock sound.This CD could have been improved just a little better.
It's so easy to make a second CD of CCR to complement this release of Chronicles. The second Chronicles CD that they released, well, I could laugh. I see that they gave us the whole version of "I've Heard It Through The Grapevine", but I really missed having the full version of "Suzie Q" as I've always known it. Who would have thought. I've never heard it cut short like it was here, and there is no excuse for it.
I'll make my own 2 disc "Best of Creedance Clearwater Revival" because I do need "Ramble Tamble", "Keep on Chooglin'", and even, the two other tracks that I just mentioned, plus there are other great tracks.
Brought back a lot of memories and I got to listen to some songs I had forgotten CCR did. Got this today-I agree with all the other reviewers that it's great and you should get one for your kids. Going to listen to it again now.
But apparently the plan was to sell a follow-up album, Chronicle #2, along with it's share of filler tracks. They should have left out tracks #7, 15, 19, and included a major hit, Born On The Bayou, and a couple of other of CCR's big hits that should be here. This one is still worthy of 5-stars.
This isnt my taste in music, but since I got it for someone as a gift I cant say too much about it.
