Favorite NonCCR band

[nerdistmonk]

Just a small gossip thread to see what people listen to outside of CCR, trust me as many times as I hear the songs, I like to hear other stuff.

My other favorites are:

Nirvana
Electric Light Orchestra
Bachman Turner Overdrive
The Doobie Bros.
Jimi Hendrix

Thats just to name a few. I cant remember what all i like since theres so much.

and yes I really really like Nirvana, they are (were) the freshest artist to come since CCR, The last good band, then the music industry went right down the swirling throne of doom, but sadly just like CCR they weren't meant to be sustained for very long. (Ironically Kurt Cobain played CCR tunes in his early days)

Anyways list some of your favorites.

AC/DC is easily my 2nd favorite band!

In a strange sort of way, AC/DC's It's a Long Way to the Top (if You Wanna Rock 'n Roll) reminds me of Creedence's Bootleg. Mainly because of the guitar licks, but also the video of them playing the song while on the back of a moving truck is similar to the video of CCR playing Bootleg on a moving riverboat.




I also love Fleetwood Mac, ABBA, Alison Krauss and Union Station (not rock but whatever). Favorite single artists (besides Fogerty, of course): Iris DeMent, Neil Diamond, Enya, Bonnie Raitt, John Prine, Sinead O'Connor...to name but a few.

[Poor Boy]

The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, The Who, The Guess Who, Three Dog Night, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Cream, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Neil Diamond, Pink Floyd and still more. But Creedence Clearwater Revival still remains my favorite RNR band. So many good bands and so much good music.
