CCR - Hey Tonight

Sorry for that bad album cover picture, but my scanner's too small for such lp covers. Anyway, today I want to present you a German compilation entitled "Hey Tonight" by the great swamp rock/country rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival. This is material recorded between 1968 and 1973 and includes several hits like "Green River", "Lookin' Out My Back Door", "Proud Mary", "Bad Moon Rising" and more. Also featured are lesser known songs like "I Put a Spell On You", originally a Screamin' Jay Hawkins song, and their great version of "Suzie Q", made famous by Dale Hawkins, who just passed away on Febuary 13. Enjoy this! (And I apologize for the bad covers and the sound, although I tried to improve it).
