Cosmo's Factory is a solid album. Creedence Clearwater Revival have moved away from their swamp rock to blues/country rock.
The songs are all outstanding. There are four cover songs and seven originals. Despite the covers being great songs in their own right, the originals are what make this album shine. John Fogerty is a great songwriter. The only problem is that the songs don't congeal into a thematic whole like CCR's previous two albums (on this list) have.
This album is definitely worth listening to, but I don't think it should be on the 1001 Albums list. This album is neither innovative nor groundbreaking.
The stand out songs are: Ramble Tamble, Travelin' Band, Lookin' Out My Back Door, Run Through the Jungle, Up Around the Bend, Who'll Stop the Rain, I Heard It Through the Grapevine, Long as I Can See the Light.
★★★★★★★★★☆
