“Down On The Corner” #3 12/20/1969

After the success of “Sgt. Pepper” with the Beatles using alter egos, CCR did the same with their “Willy And The Poor Boys” album. They actually appeared on Ed Sullivan posing as a street corner jug band. This two-sided hit was Creedence’s fourth Top 3 single of the calendar year. The album cover photo was taken in front of the Duck Kee Market in Oakland, just down the street from their recording studio. One of the most fun songs of 1969, and absolutely a personal fave.
