#193 Creedence Clearwater Revival, 'Willy and the Poor Boys' (1969)

1969 was an extremely prolific year for Creedence Clearwater Revival. ‘Willy and the Poor Boys’ was their third full length album to be released that year. Over and above a landmark performance at Woodstock plus a slew of #2 singles and a #1 album and a performance on the Ed Sullivan Show. John Fogerty was worried that if the band slipped out of the charts they would be forgotten, and so he pushed his band mates to continuously work.
