Sealed 2019 180gm Half-speed Abbey Road remastered reissue. Custom hype sticker on shrink. "Bayou Country" is the second studio album by American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival, released on January 5, 1969. The album features the hit singles "Proud Mary" and "Born on the Bayou."

Following the success of their debut album, "Creedence Clearwater Revival," the band began touring extensively and writing new material. They recorded "Bayou Country" in Los Angeles in late 1968, with John Fogerty serving as the primary songwriter and producer.

"Proud Mary" was released as a single prior to the album's release and became the band's first top ten hit, reaching number two on the US Billboard Hot 100. The song's popularity helped propel the album to number seven on the US Billboard 200 chart.

"Born on the Bayou" was also released as a single and became a popular album track, often performed by the band live in concert. Other standout tracks on the album include "Bootleg," "Graveyard Train," and "Keep on Chooglin'."

"Bayou Country" received critical acclaim upon its release and is often cited as one of the band's best albums. The album's swampy, bluesy sound and Fogerty's distinctive voice and guitar work helped establish Creedence Clearwater Revival as one of the most popular and influential bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
