@@lvcubing9024 I have bob seger old time rock and roll live on my playlist it’s way better than the original, especially the blues jam at the beginning
I was alive in 69. Off the top of my head here are the musical acts I recall: credence, the doors, the beatles (still together), rolling stones, janis joplin, simon and g ("mrs. robinson" the year before "bridge over troubled water" the year after). Elvis (still lean and mean), steppenwolf, crosby stills and nash, sly and family, Joe cocker, donovan, three dog night, bob dylan, jefferson airplane, inspired one-hit wonders, and now? lady gaga. what happened?and I prob'ly left several out!
@@reggiekrager5411 No, this song was railing against the unfairness of the draft. A lot of the rich and well connected would get out of the draft. Or, simply go to their induction and deliberately fail every test they could. (BTW, I served 20 years in the Army - the ALL VOLUNTEER ARMY. )
The vocals sound just like the original recording. I do not believe the vocals were live. Usually you would have a few minor changes or adlibs in a live recording and this does not have it.
GOOD 1980 The vocals are not the same. There's much more rasp here than there is in the studio version. Also there are many small differences, for example, during the first chorus, in the studio version he sings: "I ain't no senator's son, son"; here he sings "no" instead of "son". Then, studio: "I ain't no fortunate one, no"; here he doesn't sing the "no". Etc.
a friend of mine said that if he ever had the chance to go back in time, he would be fascinated to witness all great revolutions and achievements of mankind such as the American independence war and such.. FUCK THAT SHIT TAKE ME TO EFFIN' 1969!
what an awesome live performance. It's rare to find a band anymore that can really play their own music live as well as it sounds recorded in a studio. These guys were good.
Amazing how they could put out such great live music without guitar cords or amplifiers! Just kidding. This was a phenomenal band and John Fogerty-very versatile. From swamp rock to acid rock. They innovated a lot of stuff.
“Some folks are born silver spoon in hand Lord, don't they help themselves, oh But when the taxman comes to the door Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale.” As relevant today as ever
@ChaosOfSpartan in the Vietnam Conflict, soldiers actually put radios in their jeeps, tanks, PBR's, and small radios in their huey helicopters just to listen to this song and many others like it which helped raise morale
just one more thing. for example. in those days there would often be a song (or sometimes even an album) that would be the song of that moment. For example, in 1968 after the murders of martin luther king and bobby kennedy that song was, "so here's to you joe dimaggio, a lonely nation turns its eyes to you. what's that you say mrs. robinson, joltin' joe as left and gone away--" at those moments it was like the whole country would hold its breath for a second. that never happens now. never.
Oh, I almost forgot. In 1968 the British band "the Yardbirds" reformed and released their debut album on January 12, 1969 under their new name of "Led Zeppelin." Yes, a very wimpy year for music, 1969.
I think this is not Lypsync, the studio version ends with a fadeout, this ends abruptelly and the instruments do the natural muting sound. With that being said. I fucking love this song.
Despite not having a #1 (but several #2 songs), CCR had the whole "Swamp-Rock" market cornered. Nobody was better at it than Fogerty, with his fantastic voice, writing, and guitar-playing talent. While this video was filmed for Ed Sullivan, it probably wasn't done in his famous theater (there is no audience or front of stage) but more likely in one of the adjacent CBS studios, with a very unusual set (more of a barn than a treehouse) and a continuous 360% camera shot; unique for the time.
The band is definitely not playing live in this video. They are miming to the master release or a special mix-minus track which has just the instruments and he's singing live along to it, which was popular at the time for TV. The awkward stop at the end is a good clue. Fantastic Rickenbacker guitar sound on the record, and this is the same track. Note how the song is in G but he's playing in A, so his Rick must have been tuned down to D tuning for this recording. Absolutely a great rock song.
"star spangled eyes & 'only answer more, more, more...." sounds like just about everyone i ever knew in the '60's! loved this song for the words and i usually do not care too much about lyrics. do you all hear the musicality?
You're right, there's as much talent as there ever was. You just have to actually look for it now. But still, to be around when rock n roll was king... I would do just about anything for that.
And this is why music vocalists were WAAAAY better back in that era. Notice how he sounds just as good as he does on the album version of the song? You had to have REAL vocals to be able to sing, not any of this audio technician in the sound room adjusting your pitch. So many fucking artists today sound godawful when they sing live, and there's a reason why many of them lip sync when they do. It's because they sound fucking awful. I am probably the worst singer in the world, my voice is that bad. But I bet that if I hired a professional audio technician, I could sound just as good as most famous singers out there. It's sad but true. A good example is Robert Plant from Zeppelin before he ruined his vocal chords after throat surgery. Before that happened, he could belt out those insane vocals just as good as it sounded in the studio. His voice was truly a marvel. After he ruined his vocal chords, he still sung all of his songs live, but he had to change the vocals to sound differently just because his throat wouldn't allow him to. He destroyed his vocal chords because he went on to sing for the fans when he had a throat problem, and went against doctor's advice. Him and the rest of Led Zeppelin were so dedicated to their music that they didn't give a shit if someone was ill, they rarely ever canceled a show. Now adays, if the average singer has a fucking runny nose, or doesn't like the vibe of the audience due to the rampant diva antics, they will walk right the fuck out of a show, not giving a shit about people who payed good money to see them live. There are still some really incredible modern vocalists today however. Brandon Boyd from Incubus just sounds incredible. I went to see a live show of Incubus once, and I was blown away. He wasn't lip syncing, he was fucking belting out those vocals and it shocked me how good he can sing live. Kurt Cobain was incredible as well, same with Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam. Fucking insane vocals. And even though I don't like straight pop that much (aside from Michael Jackson's music), Lady Gaga can really sing incredibly well. Beyonce isn't shit compared to LG in terms of live singing.
Plant adjusted by changing the melodies...I don't think I've ever heard a clip of him singing Rock And Roll in the original octave on the record. Freddie Mercury was known for doing the same thing in live shows...he'd just bypass all the cool high notes.
Man, I do a lot of vocals for the two bands I'm in, and for vocal covers I do. If I can't sing a song, I'll stop at nothing to train my voice to master it. Never used autotune or anything like that in my life, since in my opinion, that either shows waning talent if you use it halfway through your career, or you have no talent if you use it from the get-go. So in that sense, a lot of commercially successful vocalists nowadays don't know how to do a lot of things outside of autotune and the occasional tuneup of their voice and pitch
Watched an interview from the 70's with Jeune Pritchard on Rage this morning with this band. Fogarty said that they mimed live shows for reasons like turning up to gigs and having crap equipment etc. I know their recordings like the back of my hand and can't recall ever having heard a proper, fully live one. Bit of a let down for such a top band
I tried working this out by ear last week. While getting the chords right, what I thought sounded like open strings didn't make sense. Now seeing John with his gat tuned down now explains it.
Were you there? I know they were. list the bands extant (in operation) in 1969. sly and the family stone, crosby stills and nash, ccr, jefferson airplane, santana, the rolling stones, THE BEATLES, the jimmi hendrix experience, simon and garfunkle, bob dylan, elvis presley was in the middle of his "comeback", one year later james taylor and elton john both broke onto the scene, and an uneding stream of one hit wonders with great songs e.g. "in the year 2525." all these people were peaking.
I've been listening and listening to this track and in the end I am very confident that John Fogerty isn't singing live. It's just too close to the original and if search for this video "Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son (Live 1969)" you'll hear the difference. Still a great singer and an awesome band!!
Da gusto poder oir rock and roll americano puro y duro, Sin duda una de las formaciones que ha hecho historia en la música de los EEUU y de todo el mundo. Bravo por la Creedence Clearwater Revival!!!
i actually saw creedence in 1969 or 1970. i was surprised by how much their live show sounded like the record. the eagles did this too..live shows sounded like the record

no, CCR members bitter John left them out to dry lol.
Perfect comment Alberto! Ha!
Sweet baby Jesus that voice is something special.
It ain't me
John Fogerty had one of the best power vocals of his time. Love his vocals very much.
As his brother once said, it wasn't just a voice, it was a sound!.
@@agankachu09 Of his time? Of all times. We had to wait for a certain Cornell to come along

No one can play this song like the originals.

The vocals are live, everything else is from the studio recording. This was common place for alot of band appearances on TV shows in the 60's.
I thought the vocals were from the studio album!!
IMO the vocals are from the original studio recording so no part of this video was a live performance.
The vocals sound just like the original recording. I do not believe the vocals were live. Usually you would have a few minor changes or adlibs in a live recording and this does not have it.

Yeah I could hear that
This song becomes more and more relevant each day
A song that's as relevant today, as the day it was written. Brilliant band.
Yes sir and today as well 2024
When i was 6 my dad played this to me, now i am 29 and my son is 6 and i also play this to him
Aww
Музыка моего детства -1969 -5-й класс. Помню и слушаю до сих пор.
USS Coral Sea 1974-75 A song imbedded in my heart.
One of their Golden hits. Powerful intense desperate Vietnam war Song . Incredible raw voice of John Fogerty and the force of this rhythm..Wow
'some folks was born made to wave the flag...that aint me"..wow voice of a generation
a friend of mine said that if he ever had the chance to go back in time, he would be fascinated to witness all great revolutions and achievements of mankind such as the American independence war and such.. FUCK THAT SHIT TAKE ME TO EFFIN' 1969!
A message/song that never seems to get out of date. Just as valid today as back then...
what an awesome live performance. It's rare to find a band anymore that can really play their own music live as well as it sounds recorded in a studio. These guys were good.
Eric Cartman
Well because the instrumentals were recorded in the studio, only the vocals were live
Best band that came out of USA. Beatles of USA. what a unique natural voice no fucking vocoder and pro fucking tools needed.
The BEST songs are ALWAYS to short.
Long live CCR!
Epic sound quality! and what a live voice!
That Ricken he's playing is awesome.
Why is that not recognised as the best rock voice ever
Isn't it?
holy fuck holy fuck holy fuck. what a songwriter!
when the live version is the perfect clone of the studio version ---> one of the greatest band of all time
One of my fav tracks from the American 60's nam days.
A song for the generations.
Si le pones dislike, es porque lo que consideras musica es basura. Grande Creedence!! Desde Argentina.

Give almost anything to go back to the 60s/70s just for the concerts alone. God I could easily go to a few hundered of them.
Not 1 million YET???? This is a classic!!!!
how can seven people dislike this song??
This song made you fortunate, son!

Surprisingly good sound quality for 1969 music videos!
Brilliant songwriting, it had it all, the sound, the lyrics, and all wrapped up in just over two minutes.
Happy Birthday,John Fogerty!
Thanks Battlefield Vietnam for introducing me into this awesome song

The BEST "Driving my car down a desert road"-song
what an outstanding recording of a truly, truly outstanding song...I get angry just listening to it. Love an emotional reaction...
This song still rocks after 51 years!

True Gods of rock, 1969; Peace man!
Of all the versions of this classic this is by far the best. Not too fast for just a show. Just right to get the message across!!!!!!!!!
saw this on TV. almost 25 years after it's original air date. bought the album the next day.
John keeps it simple and straight ahead...he let's the strength of the song carry it..!
Que vocerron... voz en vivo igual o mejor que la del disco!!!
"star spangled eyes & 'only answer more, more, more...." sounds like just about everyone i ever knew in the '60's! loved this song for the words and i usually do not care too much about lyrics. do you all hear the musicality?

Best song CCR.
You're right, there's as much talent as there ever was. You just have to actually look for it now. But still, to be around when rock n roll was king... I would do just about anything for that.
One of the best R'N'R songs ever
playing to a track but John's vocals are live.
think so? sounds like the whole music is playback, even the singing, but then there are some small differences, i really can't tell
