Overview

The album is notable because it was performed as a trio following Tom Fogerty's departure. The record was released despite John Fogerty's strong objections.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The album was released after John Fogerty's final struggles with Fantasy Records, in which he as a songwriter was trapped. In 1973, John Fogerty said he never would play a Creedence song again, since this would only benefit Fantasy Records. This was a promise he kept for some 20 years.[7]

A 1987 reissue of this title as a budget-priced single album omitted "Door to Door" and "Sweet Hitch-Hiker", both of which were originally recorded and released as a trio. A remastered single CD was released by Fantasy Records in 1999 which restored the two missing songs.

A lot of them could use static or server side dynamically generated pages as opposed to JS.<@474726021652807680> A lot of time that's for development convenience as opposed to anything else. Or so it can actually respond in reasonable time to input and stuff.
gollark: DRM is inherently broken, it'll always run into this if people are dedicated enough.
