“Wrote A Song For Everyone” by Creedence Clearwater Revival from the album Green River.

*About Green River*
1969 was a prolific year for Creedence Clearwater Revival, who released three Billboard Top Ten albums in 12 months. Released in August of ’69, Green River was the Bay Area band’s third studio album, and their first No. 1 record. Featuring hit singles “Bad Moon Rising” and “Green River” (which both went to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100), the album also features fan-favorite “Lodi,” “Wrote a Song for Everyone,” and a cover of the R&B standard, “The Night Time Is the Right Time.” Included in Rolling Stone’s 2003 “500 Greatest Albums of All Time” list, Green River has often been cited as frontman John Fogerty’s favorite record from Creedence’s catalog.

*About Creedence Clearwater Revival*
Creedence Clearwater Revival’s 1968 self-titled debut album introduced the world to guitar-playing brothers John and Tom Fogerty, drummer Doug Clifford, and bassist Stu Cook, four young men out of El Cerrito in the San Francisco Bay Area. Though they emerged in a place and time where trippy psychedelic visions were the order of the day, CCR bucked the trends and instead tapped into a rich, traditional seam of American music that connected to blues, country, rockabilly, gospel, folk and R&B.   

During their short time together as a band (1968 – 1972), the band enjoyed an unparalleled period of creativity. They’ve sold over 30 million records in the U.S. alone, releasing 14 Top 10 hits, six Platinum albums (two of which went to number one) and one Gold album. They also managed to play over 150 tour dates around the world, including a headlining spot at Woodstock. 

Creedence Clearwater Revival’s canon has become a part of the Great American Songbook. Songs like “Bad Moon Rising,” “Down on the Corner,” “Fortunate Son,” “Have You Ever Seen the Rain,” “Proud Mary,” “Born on the Bayou,” “Travelin’ Band” and “Up Around the Bend” have been ingrained into pop culture — not just as rock staples, but as classic standards.  

 With so many memorable songs that continue to grace our radio waves and television and movie screens, plus lyrics that still resonate today, Creedence Clearwater Revival is, truly, America’s greatest rock ’n’ roll band.
