Undoubtedly the best CCR song. Anytime I hear a mortar burst, it reminds me of this tune.

Although barefoot girls, dancin' in the moonlight, it doesn't get much better than that in August.

Fogerty's voice, incredible.

9. Anything but that song about that stupid boat
I actually like most of their material except for that one dumbass song. I hope to complete my life without ever hearing ANY version of it again.

10. The cover of "Heard It Through the Grapevine."
Possibly the only cover of that song that should be allowed by law.

11. Big fan of CCR
Maybe my favorite group/singer (John Fogerty) of all time. I like so many of their songs. "Up Around the Bend." "Long as I Can See the Light." Too many to name.
