CCR Cosmo's Factory

摘要

In 1970, Creedence Clearwater Revival, led by songwriter John Fogerty, was the most successful band in America without question, and that year's album, Cosmo's Factory, was their most successful ever, spending eight weeks at No 1 in the Billboard chart, and eventually achieving quadruple platinum status. And yet to call Cosmo's Factory an 'album' flies in the face of almost everything that has long been accepted about how iconic past albums have been made. The classic LPs of The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Beach Boys and others tended to have been recorded in a well-defined period of time in a studio, emerging as a coherent body of work whose running order was carefully chosen to enhance the listening experience.
