    I'm 74 years old. I was in my late teens when I first heard Creedence. People can say what they want but in my opinion, they were the best band in America at the time, hands down. The Byrds had pretty much flown away. David Crosby was gone. Buffalo Springfield had only made one album. Crosby, Stills and Nash had not formed yet. There were some good bands on the left coast but none really had the appeal to the masses that CCR had. Of course there were the Doors, the Grateful Dead and others. Santana was just forming. As for rock that appealed to everyone, Creedence was it. John has been through so much. He is kind of like Andy in The Shawshank Redemptions, swimming through a river of crap and coming out clean on the other side. He is trully an american treasure. There have been so many great performers that have left us this year like Jeff Beck, Robbie Robertson, Randy Meisner and Jimmy Buffett, we should all be grateful that we still have him with us.

I have played as a single off and on since then doing jazz and cover tune instrumentals in nice lounges.

On my way home I stopped in the bowling alley, where there was a game room and a jukebox. Immediately, I witnessed a usually quiet kid from school singing and jumping around to " too too too , looking out my back door" ? At that moment, everything changed.
