Bayou Country is a heavy album. Most of the songs are a mix of blues and country with a lyrics that conjure images of life in the bayou. Hence, the apt album title. The music cuts a deep groove from slow, walking bass which gives many of the songs a haunting quality.
Creedence Clearwater Revival is another band to have decided to return to a simpler, more traditional form of rock and roll, although there are some psychedelic influences present. No matter, the band has done a wonderful job updating the rock and roll sound.
I didn't expect to enjoy this album that much. I was expecting vapid and superficial classic rock. (It's not their fault that subsequent bands would be inspired to produce that kind of music.) This album is far from it. It is some of purest and most honest rock and roll you'll ever hear. This album is worth listening to and is a must for any serious music collector.
I don't think there are any songs that are better than any other. All the songs are exceptional.
★★★★★★★★★★
