Willy and the Poor Boys

Vinyl LP

Willy and the Poor Boys came out in 1969, when, as annotator Ed Ward writes, 'a period when Creedence, surely the most anomalous band in the San Francisco explosion of the late 60s, was also proving its most commercial seller of them all.' The album contains the anthemic Fortunate Son along with down on the corner and a cover of the traditional folk song The Midnight Special. - Rough Trade
