| Be Warned. The quality of the download is not the same as the preview. the sound is grainy with background noise. it sounds like it was recorded in a tunnel!

| Not the sound I expected. (review from amazon.com) |

I enjoyed the 2 instrumentals *Broken Spoke Shuffle and * Glory Be from the extra tracks,they fit well.The live extras were 3 man band CCR and not that great.It is a shame they could not have found a few rare live 4 man band CCR tracks to include.
As far as the sound of this remasterd CD It does not compare to the 24K gold Green River remasterd disc.

| Third album has much to offer (review from amazon.com) |
|
While the title track was successful when released as a single, the other single taken from the album (Bad moon rising) became even more successful. It just missed the top spot in America (as several Creedence Clearwater Revival singles did) but went all the way to number one in Britain.
Other highlights here include Wrote a song for everyone (a plea for mutual understanding that is just as relevant today as it ever was) and Lodi (a very sad song), while the other songs are all worth hearing.
This album helped to consolidate Creedence Clearwater Revival `s already high reputation when first released, but even better was to come with the next two albums (Willy and the poor boys, Cosmo's factory) before arguments within the group affected the quality of their music. If you're building a collection of original albums by Creedence Clearwater Revival, this may not be the best place to begin, but it should certainly be on your list.
Since I purchased my copy, this album has been re-issued with different packaging and extra tracks. Amazon puts reviews for both versions on both product pages, but I recommend this album whether or not it has those extra tracks.

| There's A Bathroom On The Right (review from amazon.com) |
|
| It's hard for me to rate this album among CCR's catalog of fine releases. I guess I'd have to say that my favorite CCR album is the one I am listening to at the time. I was 13 when this album came out and was just beginning to earn some of my own money cutting grass in the summer and shoveling snow in the winter. This was the first album I ever bought with my own money so it has a special place in my mind. This is the first that I bought of the newly remastered set of CCR releases. I have since bought the rest of them and I am very pleased with the sound and the packaging. If you are a CCR fan, then you will want to get all of the new releases. They are excellent!!!! Of course, who can forget the ever popular misunderstood lyric? Yes, there is a bathroom on the right!
