Great interview with Dianemarie (DM) Collins on The DM Zone with two of the original members of Creedence Clearwater Revival – Doug ‘Cosmo’ Clifford and Stu Cook – and learn the story of Creedence Clearwater Revisited.
Proud Mary, Born on the Bayou, Heard it through the Grapevine, Lodi, Bad Moon Rising, Who’ll Stop the Rain, Fortunate Son, Down on the Corner, Suzie Q, Hey Tonight … a night full of hits at Talking Stick Resort in Scottsdale, AZ.
Stu Cook and Doug “Cosmo” Clifford may not have intended it, but their band Creedence Clearwater Revisited has taken on a startling life of its own. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame rhythm section (bass and drums respectively) from the legendary group Creedence Clearwater Revival launched the Creedence Clearwater Revisited project in 1995 to once again perform live Creedence Clearwater Revival hits ‑ touchstones of a generation. Though the pair initially only planned to play private parties, Creedence Clearwater Revisited now performs up to 100 shows a year and released the album “Recollection.”
“We never really had any intention of playing for the public,” says Stu. “But a friend wanted to promote a couple of concerts. We got talked into it, but didn’t know how it would go over.” Since then, the reaction to Creedence Clearwater Revisited’s concerts has been astounding, and driven in part by a generation of kids who, as Cosmo says, “weren’t even born when the music came out.”
“The true test of any concert is how the music makes you feel,” commented Classic Rock Revisited critic Jeb Wright about a 2013 concert. “On this night, this writer walked away with a wonderful feeling, having just witnessed timeless, historical music, performed to perfection. Creedence Clearwater Revisited not only looks to the past, performing iconic songs, they bring them to the modern day, reminding us all of the true importance of music.”
