Creedence Clearwater Revival
(1967-1972)
Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993

I would give straight reds for the first six, with Green River and maybe another one orange.

The other orange would have to be between Willy and the Poor Boys and Cosmo's Factory. I'm thinking WatPB.

Tier is done. I gave the second orange to Willy and the Poor Boys because it had better reviews.

Honestly, and I say this as someone who considers himself a fanboy, the CCR and Pendulum should probably just be bold.

I suppose if we want to give the discography more differentiation, that'll be the way to go, but I've always found their output to be incredibly consistent. I would keep the self titled red either way, too many classic CCR songs on that one.

I'm gonna second this. They're a great band but they don't need that many reds.

I made Pendulum bold, as I had it for a few minutes before I changed it back to George's idea. Considering making s/t bold too, per Dreww's suggestion.

Cosmo's for me is an absolute dead cert orange over either of the other two if you wanna make it 2 oranges only.

Yeah it needs to be orange. Really, I'm thinking three orange there.

Naah, red for Willy. Orange for Cosmo's. The debut should be merely bold, if anything.

So:

Creedence Clearwater Revival (1968)
Bayou Country (1969)
Green River (1969)
Willy and the Poor Boys (1969)
Cosmo's Factory (1970)
Pendulum (1970)
Mardi Gras (1972)

Anyone ever listened to Mardi Gras?

It is truly awful.

How good is Effigy? Goddamn, I must not have been paying attention last time I listened to Willy and the Poor Boys - easily one of the finest Creedence tracks.
