クリーデンス・クリアウォーター・リバイバルほどロックン・ロールのルーツにこだわり続けた1960年代のバンドはまずないといっていい。彼らの音楽には、カントリー、ロカビリー、R&Bの匂いがぷんぷんしている。これらの要素が融合した音楽性が何曲ものヒットを生んだのだ――その大部分はこのコレクションに収められている。「I Heard It through the Grapevine」、「Lodi」、「Up Around the B」、「Who'll Stop the Rain」、そしてもちろん「Bad Moon Rising」も収録。これは素晴らしいベスト・アルバムであり、いつまでも語り継がれるバンドの音楽を知るには申し分のない内容だ。（Genevieve Williams, Amazon.com）

Few bands of the 1960s retained as much a sense of the roots of rock and roll as did Creedence Clearwater Revival. Their music is rife with country, rockabilly, and R&B influences, a combination that produced several hit singles--most of which are present on this collection. These include "I Heard It through the Grapevine," "Lodi," "Up Around the B ," "Who'll Stop the Rain," and of course "Bad Moon Rising." This is an excellent greatest-hits collection, and a perfect introduction to the music of a band that has been enduringly influential. --Genevieve Williams
