Análisis (en inglés) - :
It could be argued that {$Creedence Clearwater Revival} were the greatest American {\rock & roll} band, and one convincing argument would be that no other of their peers had such a commanding grasp on a variety of American music and could synthesize them in such a bracingly original fashion. It's that synthesis that makes a genre-specific compilation like {^Creedence Country} so difficult to pull off -- it's hard to single out one strand from that mix, particularly since {$CCR} didn't so much perform {\country} as absorb its influence. In fact, only a handful of songs could be appropriately classified as "{\country}" -- the slow-crawling opener {&"Lookin' for a Reason,"} the peerless lament {&"Lodi,"} the similarly heartbroken {&"Wrote a Song for Everyone,"} maybe the bouncy {&"Lookin' Out My Back Door,"} which can sound like the streets of Bakersfield, and perhaps their driving cover of {$Leadbelly}'s {&"Cotton Fields,"} which winds up as {\rock & roll}. The rest of it is either flat-out {\rockabilly}, whether it's a cover of {&"My Baby Left Me"} or {$John Fogerty}'s {&"Don't Look Now,"} or flat-out {\rock & roll} like {&"Cross-Tie Walker"} -- and it's hard to believe that anybody could call the elongated, menacing jam of {&"Ramble Tamble"} {\country}. That said, it's a thoroughly enjoyable listen, since nearly all the music is excellent, but it doesn't really present any insight into the band -- it's just a good mixtape. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
