About Travelin’ Band: This music video offers a rare glimpse of the band on the road in 1969 and 1970—at the height of their international success—as the camera follows them from brightly lit stages to the hodgepodge of planes, buses, motorcycles and more, that brought them to perform for their growing number of adoring fans. This video releases in anticipation of Record Store Day’s exclusive Travelin’ Band (Live at the Royal Albert Hall) 7-inch available June 18, 2022. Mirroring the original double A-sided “Travelin’ Band”/ “Who’ll Stop the Rain” 45, which dropped in January 1970, this release showcases what were the band’s newest songs in a live setting. Side A features the first-time release of Royal Albert Hall performance of the song from April 14, 1970. Side B, meanwhile, offers a live version of “Who’ll Stop the Rain,” recorded at the Oakland Coliseum.

The former, with its on-the-nose lyrical depiction of the band’s new reality, found the band exploring a more traditional rock and roll sound compared to the “swamp rock” of their earlier releases. Cosmo’s Factory, which also features the hits “Lookin' Out My Back Door,“ “Run Through The Jungle,“ “Heard It Through The Grapevine,“ “Up Around The Bend“ and “Long as I Can See The Light,“ has since been certified 4x-platinum. About Creedence Clearwater Revival: Creedence Clearwater Revival’s 1968 self-titled debut album introduced the world to guitar-playing brothers John and Tom Fogerty, drummer Doug Clifford, and bassist Stu Cook, four young men out of El Cerrito in the San Francisco Bay Area. Though they emerged in a place and time where trippy psychedelic visions were the order of the day, CCR bucked the trends and instead tapped into a rich, traditional seam of American music that connected to blues, country, rockabilly, gospel, folk and R&B. During their short time together as a band (1968 – 1972), the band enjoyed an unparalleled period of creativity. They’ve sold over 30 million records in the U.S. alone, releasing 14 Top 10 hits, six Platinum albums (two of which went to number one) and one Gold album. They also managed to play over 150 tour dates around the world, including a headlining spot at Woodstock. Creedence Clearwater Revival’s canon has become a part of the Great American Songbook. Songs like “Bad Moon Rising,” “Down on the Corner,” “Fortunate Son,” “Have You Ever Seen the Rain,” “Proud Mary,” “Born on the Bayou,” “Travelin’ Band” and “Up Around the Bend” have been ingrained into pop culture — not just as rock staples, but as classic standards. With so many memorable songs that continue to grace our radio waves and television and movie screens, plus lyrics that still resonate today, Creedence Clearwater Revival is, truly, America’s greatest rock ’n’ roll band.
