Most bands would kill for this to be their best stuff, and the fact that it's tucked away on an album that even some fans forget illustrates what a tremendous band Creedence Clearwater Revival was.

Rolling Stone
1975 - All the elements of great rock and roll are present on some of this album and yet none of it ever becomes great rock and roll.

Robert Christgau
The rest is six songs so superpar Steve Barri or Tommy James would kill (or least steal) for them. Ho hum, another Creedence album.

Ultimate Classic Rock
stands out as the band’s most sonically layered album as well as Fogerty’s most obvious tribute to his Stax Records heroes

Aphoristic Album Reviews
While the previous Creedence Clearwater Revival albums felt like a measured progression from a straightforward swamp boogie outfit to a classic rock hits machine, 1970’s Pendulum is markedly different. It’s much more sonically expansive – not surprising for an album where the songs weren’t written in advance, and the band spent more time in the studio.

Mark's Record Reviews
It doesn't kick butt, but it's a groovy trip, dude.

The Music Box
2009 - a solidly constructed affair, it also boasted a few songs that have never left much of a lasting impression

U Discover Music
2018 - Recorded over a month, John Fogerty wrote every track on the album and added horns and keyboards to create a more expansive sound on Pendulum.
