There's a real fire to his writing here, turning Revival into a missive as immediate, effective, and telling as Neil Young's "Living with War."
-
This album is not just a revival, but a complete rejuvenation for John Fogerty. It's easily his best solo record, and what makes it so special is that he embraces his swamp-rocking Creedence Clearwater Revival days.
-
The title Revival is no hype: Fogerty is again in full command of his talent for blending heartfelt writing with irony-free meat-and-potatoes rock.
-
Fogerty sets high standards for himself and thankfully, he has delivered an album that matches his early solo work.
-
Reassessing the past and reengaging with the present, Revival lives up to its name.
-
Like Springsteen's recent return to classic form, the album feels more continuation than reprise.
-

ColeTJan 7, 2009I thought it was amazing to see John Fogerty make such a strong album. He's over 60, and he sings like he's 30.

KevinROct 22, 2007It's like listening to an older, more gruff and rugged CCR. And that's definitely a good thing.
