Creedence Clearwater Revival - Cosmo's Factory - Music. For those more accustomed to John Fogerty’s full, gravelly vocal, McIlrath’s vocal can feel a little weaker in places. This album cover has a ray of light striking these and breaking into a rainbow. It’s a straightforward cover, with the band transforming the swamp-rock track into a more punk rock sound. To me, the song represents one of the best examples of mixing music and politics together so seamlessly that nobody questions it.” Said lead singer Tim McIlrath: “We actually used to cover ‘Fortunate Son’ in our early basement days. All the songs add up to a superb statement of purpose, a record that captures Creedence Clearwater Revival's muscular, spare, deceptively simple sound as an evocative portrait of America.As a part of their new EP Nowhere Sessions, Chicago punk rockers Rise Against have covered the Creedence Clearwater Revival classic, “Fortunate Son.” Released in time for Veterans Day, the track has a special meaning for the band. "Born on the Bayou" is a magnificent piece of swamp-rock, "Penthouse Pauper" is a first-rate rocker with the angry undertow apparent on "Porterville" and "Bootleg" is a minor masterpiece, thanks to its tough acoustic foundation, sterling guitar work, and clever story. "Proud Mary" is the emotional fulcrum at the center of Fogerty's seductive imaginary Americana, and while it's the best song here, his other songs are no slouch, either. The lyric is married to music that is utterly unique yet curiously timeless, blending rockabilly, country, and Stax R&B into something utterly distinctive and addictive. At the heart of Bayou Country, as well as Fogerty's myth and Creedence's entire career, is "Proud Mary." A riverboat tale where the narrator leaves a good job in the city for a life rolling down the river, the song is filled with details that ring so true that it feels autobiographical. He carries this illusion throughout the record, through the ominous meanderings of "Graveyard Train" through the stoked cover of "Good Golly Miss Molly" to "Keep on Chooglin'," which rides out a southern-fried groove for nearly eight minutes. With this song, he sketches out his persona it makes him sound as if he crawled out of the backwoods of Louisiana instead of being a native San Franciscan. It's not just that "Born on the Bayou" announces that CCR has discovered its sound - it reveals the extent of John Fogerty's myth-making. Opening slowly with the dark, swampy "Born on the Bayou," Bayou Country reveals an assured Creedence Clearwater Revival, a band that has found its voice between their first and second album.
