Weekend Song – Creedence Clearwater Revival
June 23, 2007
Readers voice: “Tell me you didn’t just go old school.”
I’m afraid I can’t do that, because we’re busting out the Creedence.
Born On The Bayou is one of those songs that sounds determined, relentless, grooved, edgy, nothing fancy, sexy as hell and that’s all it is.
More cowbell? Right there in the second verse.
It’s the sound of summer and the way it starts up is the killer.
Two bars of this, two bars of a little something else, building up until you got yourself a song. Count it off with me.
Feedback.
Guitar riff.
Drums and bass.
Handclaps.
Fade it down some
…and sing it.
…my poppa said “Son, don’t let the man git’ ya and do what he done to me.”
Listen: Creedence Clearwater Revival – Born On The Bayou
