Description

Willy & The Poor Boys is CCR’s fourth studio album — a rollicking, rootsy blend of swamp rock, protest anthems, and Americana storytelling. This limited edition yellow vinyl reissue, part of Concord’s Craft Recordings series, is pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl, housed in a replica single sleeve, and remastered from the original analogue tapes. The vibrant pressing celebrates the album’s enduring legacy and includes fan favourites with audiophile clarity.

Produced by John Fogerty, the album features timeless tracks like “Down On The Corner,” “Fortunate Son,” and “The Midnight Special,” alongside deep cuts like “Feelin’ Blue” and “Effigy.” With its blend of blues, country, and rock ’n’ roll, the album peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and was later ranked in Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. The reissue is part of the Atlantic 75 campaign, celebrating the label’s rich history with premium coloured vinyl editions.
