Album Notes & Community Reviews
A blistering, politically charged anthem that directly attacked the class inequalities inherent in the military draft system during the Vietnam War. Propelled by John Fogerty's ferocious, raspy vocal delivery and a relentlessly driving rhythm section, it stands as one of the era's most potent and enduring protest songs.
