Not as highly renowned as "Green River" or "Cosmo's Factory", "Pendulum" may need a little time to assimilate, but in time it will grow on you.
These songs aren't as immediately memorable as hit singles like "Proud Mary" or "Bad Moon Rising", but it is quite interesting to hear how John Fogerty spent time arranging, polishing, trying out new styles, adding keyboards and horns to the "classic" Creedence sound. Sure, the instrumental "Rude Awakening #2" sounds suspiciously like progressive rock, which certainly wasn't Creedence's forté, but the vast majority of these songs are excellent. Just listen to the atmospheric acoustic folk-rock of "Have You Ever Seen The Rain", the bluesy raver "Pagan Baby", the moody, organ-laden ballads "Hideaway" and "It's Just A Thought", the upbeat hard rock of "Hey Tonight" and "Molina", and the fine, funky soul of "Born To Move".
Most bands would kill for this to be their best stuff, which just goes to show what a phenomenal band Creedence really was.
