If, as many contend, Creedence Clearwater Revival was the foremost singles rock band of its time, Cosmo's Factory is the ultimate end-of-the-'60s singles album. Indeed, 7 of the album's 11 tracks turn up on Chronicle, CCR's best hits collection. That said, Cosmo's Factory is really a must-own in its entirety. No other album so adeptly laces together the various strands of the CCR sound. John Fogerty's ready-for-AM-radio knack surfaces in "Lookin' Out My Back Door" and "Up Around the Bend." His sober side is in evidence on "Who'll Stop the Rain" and "Long As I Can See the Light." And no white group of its time could cover black music with as much natural flair; for proof, check out the 11-minute cover of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." The band broke up two albums after the release of this, their apex LP, but Cosmo's Factory cemented CCR's standing as a great American band. --Steven Stolder

Album Description
This self-titled album is a blend of hard rock and symphonic prog that features organ and piano, flute and electric as well as acoustic (12-string) guitar; but it is Atsumi Rei's colorful keyboards and the memorable tunes that stand out and should attract fans from both symphonic prog and hard-rock. 6 tracks.
