Amazing !!! An
unbelievable piece: What we have here is an unheard-of TWO-SIDED U.K. TEST PRESSING of this Creedence
Rock classic, one of the group's finest classic works from the very peak of the
group's creativity and success. Bid now or weep your heart out later!
album Green River represents the full flower of their classic sound initially
essayed on its predecessor, Bayou Country. One of the differences between the
two albums is that Green River is tighter, with none of the five-minute-plus
jams that filled out both their debut and Bayou Country, but the true key to
its success is a peak in John Fogerty's creativity. Although CCR had at least
one cover on each album, they relied on Fogerty to crank out new material every
month. He was writing so frequently that the craft became second-nature and he
laid his emotions and fears bare, perhaps unintentionally. Perhaps that's why
Green River has fear, anger, dread, and weariness creeping on the edges of
gleeful music. This was a band that played rock & roll so joyously that
they masked the, well, "sinister" undercurrents in Fogerty's songs.
"Bad Moon Rising" has the famous line "Hope you've got your
things together/Hope you're quite prepared to die," but that was only the
most obvious indication of Fogerty's gloom. Consider all the other dark
touches: the "Sinister purpose knocking at your door"; the chaos of
"Commotion"; the threat of death in "Tombstone Shadow"; you
only return to the idyllic "Green River" once you get lost and
realize the "world is smolderin'." Even the ballads have a strong
melancholy undercurrent, highlighted by "Lodi," where Fogerty
imagines himself stuck playing in dead-end towns for the rest of his life. Not
the typical thoughts of a newly famous rock & roller, but certainly an
indication of Fogerty's inner tumult. For all its darkness, Green River is
ultimately welcoming music, since the band rocks hard and bright and the
melancholy feels comforting, not alienating.

album, included a chockfull
of goodies, hits and CCR signature tunes. This is an increasingly rare original
pressing, on the blue Fantasy label, and is pressed on the thick, inflexible
slab of vinyl, which probably explains why it sounds much, much better than the
shoddy 'Fantasy records' compact disc. Track listing: Green River - Commotion -
Tombstone Shadow - Wrote a song for everyone - Bad Moon rising - Lodi -
Cross-tie walker - Sinister Purpose - The night time is the right time.

musicianship, revolutionary
significance and influence it exerted on numerous generations of musicians,
writers and general public, this album was voted one of top-100 albums of all
time in one of the largest poll of critics, music reviewers, professionals and
producers ever organized: the poll, which was conducted in 1987 by Paul
Gambaccini, legendary BBC Radio A&R man, surveyed more than 50 top music
professionals  (click

RECORD
unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!;
we grade records under the strong,
diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)
WE GRADE THE VINYLÂ ASÂ NEAR MINT.
Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions – mostly sleeve scuffs - are (barely) visible, but are probably
inaudible, and do not affect visual
integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and
the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.
The records comes in their original poly-lined “Made in Great Britainâ€
stock inner sleeve.
The records are pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which
was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on
such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not
expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!
Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior,
digital recording!!!
