Creedence Clearwater Revival – Live At Woodstock

My copy is a bit wobbly (warpage) but plays decently. This is by no means a sonic masterpiece. Historically it’s a great addition to any collection. To my ears it sounds like a really good “Bootleg” recording. It is from the soundboard but given the time and circumstances of Woodstock 1969, it sounds like most of the Woodstock recordings of the 3 day show. Worth having.

This is a great set which just gets better and better to climax with a terrific Suzy Q. Side Four is just under eleven minutes long, which probably explains the sound quality - phenomenal vinyl.

For years, this set has had the reputation of being a bad show. So wrong, this was a fantastic performance. The band sounds raw And the sound take is really good.

Its a late 60s live recording. Besides that great pressing. Original poly inner sleeves are really solid

It starts off sounding a bit muddy with too much bass, but considering that these Woodstock recordings were made under less than ideal conditions with what would now be considered primitive equipment, it's pretty darn good. The band is tight and well rehearsed too. My copy was made in the US and has the slightest of warps, but not enough to be any kind of issue. It does seem to me that given the length of the performance, they could have pressed this on a single disc. I have Miles Davis records that clock in at over 52 minutes.

Susie Q!!!
This record is so good it sets the volume for you and that is loud.

Without a doubt, this was one of the best performances at Woodstock. Agree with the prior reviews, and such a pity the recording was sidelined for all these years. If you’re a Creedence fan, pick this one up asap - it features the original lineup, and some blistering guitar work. Yes, the first track "Born On The Bayou" is a bit rocky, but the power of the vocals and guitars shines through, and still a great listen - just know the sound quality improves as the album moves forward. In fact, you can hear them address the technical issues onstage in real time, which may be why Fogerty opted against using it. But later on... wow. "Suzy Q" is absolutely epic, and again, the guitar work is strong and vibrant, and Fogerty's vocals are unbelievably good. A brilliant document of the original lineup.

This is a dope recording. I love how it's an uninterrupted CCR set. I love the crowd noise and reactions - who would have thought people back 50+ years ago got rowdy at concerts? Plus the band crushes it onstage. An awesome time machine of a record.

Fantastic edition by Craft! Very well packed, antistatic inner sleeves and most of all great recording of this concert. Soudstage image very detailed and live.

The sound take is fabulous !
The band was in an amazing shape, songs were playing nervously, full of pure energy.
The tracklist was perfect, first song : Born On The Bayou and the last one : Susie Q.
