About Creedence Clearwater Revival

Creedence Clearwater Revival was a famous roots rock band that formed in El Cerrito, California, USA and were active from 1967-1972. Their members consisted of vocalist/lead guitarist John Fogerty, his brother and rhythm guitarist Tom Fogerty, bassist Stu Cook, and drummer Doug Clifford. They produced seven studio albums and sold over 26 million copies in the US alone. Despite being from the Bay Area, their lyrics often reflected that of a band from the Southern US, for they revolved around bayous, catfish, the Mississippi River, and other popular elements of Southern United States iconography, as well as political and socially-conscious lyrics about topics including the Vietnam War.

Before becoming CCR, the band started out as Stu Cook, Doug Clifford, and John Fogerty in 1958 as The Blue Velvets. They were a backing band for a single with James Powell as the Blue Velvets in 1960. Shortly after Tom Fogerty joined and they became Tommy Fogerty and the Blue Velvets, releasing singles in 1961-1962. From 1964-1967 they were known as The Golliwogs and released several singles.
