Critic Reviews
Show All-
Pitchfork
2018 - For all their aww-shucks media personalities, their sound was flexible enough to be fun, angry, sorrowful, or worried.
-
Rolling Stones
1974 - It’s another damn good album by a group which is going to be around for a long time.

John Fogerty serves up his progress in modest and reliable doses

'Mature' is the word. All of the songs display creativity and richness of sound.

John McFerrin Music Reviews
this album features CCR doing what it does best; basic gritty rock'n'roll crossed with solid pop sensibilities, and the result is the first CCR album that doesn't have a single track I actively dislike

Mark's Record Reviews
Every one of these songs scrapes under your skin with a gleeful muddy glow that warms your soul as it dirties up your apartment.

All Music
an album made during stress and chaos, filled with raging rockers, covers, and intense jams -- to a close
-
The Vinyl District
2018 - monumental statement by a band at the height of its formidable powers–a band that, like the Grateful Dead and the Band during the same period, was writing songs that will stand forever as American Myths
-
U Discover Music
2018 - It’s a heady mix of R&B, soul and Motown, country music, psychedelia, rockabilly and classic rock’n’roll that all comes together to create the soundtrack to swamp rock.

Daily Vault
2017 - The singles from this record are all-timers: “Up Around The Bend,” “Who’ll Stop The Rain,” “Lookin’ Out My Back Door.” Lesser bands would give up their left kidneys just to write a song of that quality ONCE in a career, and here Fogerty delivered three of them.
