2008-11-23I got what I wanted and I'm thrilled with it! It made my day. I enjoy every minute of it, sincerly!
2008-11-05I scanned all the reviews here on Amazon before buying Chronicle Vol 2. I'd been inspired by hearing "Walk on Water" many times on Amazon and desided to buy the collection instead of CCR's eponymous first album. That was a mistake.
This collection clearly appeals to committed fans, as is true for nearly all reviews I see on Amazon. I found it mediocre, at best. "Walk on Water" has passion, a wide vocal range and nice changes of pace. The rest of this 2 CD set is forgettable.
Feel free to mark this review as "not usefull" -- I do it often myself when reviews are not informative. Sorry if this review offends your sensibilities but it's not a vote on whether CCR was a great band: it was, and John Fogerty's put out some good stuff since.
For the casual fan, get the orginal Chronicle (Vol 1) and enoy.
2008-09-05Chronicle was a let down for me. I guess Chronicle 1 had almost all of the best Credence songs. I actualy bought this album for the song "Midnight Special" with the hope that the other songs would be as good or better. It had a lot of cover songs that I don't think they did parituclarily well.
2008-06-05I bought this in addition to Chronicle Vol. 1, because I wanted "Born On The Bayou" & "The Midnight Special." As compared to Vol. 1, more of the songs on Vol. 2 are covers of songs by writers other than John Fogerty, & I was less familiar with the CCR covers of those songs than I was with those written by John Fogerty. I really liked most of their covers. I was also pleasantly suprised to dicover a few John Fogerty orginals that I didnt know from my youth that were really good. As a true CCR fan, I'm happy I have Vol. 2, but Vol. 1 is more relible as a general sampling of CCR. Still, I recomend Vol. 2 to anyone who is willing to accept a few (& I don't mean many) songs on a CD that won't really flip their switch mixed in with some truely classic songs.
2008-02-16Chronicles 2 is the second installment of Creedence Clearwater's greatest hits.
Chronicles 2 has many great songs, its just not the best of CCR'
What really amazes me is......it is very obvious that they left Born on the Boyou off of Chronicles so they had a hook to get you to buy this second edition. It may or not be good business but it is dishonest.
If you want the best of CCR get Chronicles....if you want great songs, but not the very best, get this.
John Fogerty is so good and CCR was so good, you will still enjoy this CD.
