Long As I Can See The Light

Last night, the FPO and Stimpettes were watching a film and I strolled through the living room just as this was playing over the credits.
I'd forgotten what a fantastic song it is - that lovely warbling Rhodes piano, the open drum sound and Fogerty's voice.
The problem is, in my head I can now hear the Stones plying this and Mick is ruining the vocals with his ridiculous accent :-)

"I don't hold out much hope for the Creedence"
Much as I love Creedence they were as much of a construct as the Stones. John Fogerty was born, brought up and formed the band in the San Francisco area. All his bayou schtick and delta stylings were shipped in wholesale from the east. Not that this matters one jot to me, I love CCR all the more for that.
One thing I become more convinced about all the time
For about five years Creedence Clearwater Revival were the best rock and roll band in the world.
