Description

Up for auction or sale is a highly collectible original 1969 US stereo first pressing of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s breakthrough swamp-rock masterpiece, Bayou Country (Fantasy Records, 8387). This specific copy carries the highly desirable matrix runout identifiers F-2715-2-C4B on Side A and 3F-2716-2-B/B on Side B, accompanied by the distinct R stamped into the deadwax. This marks it as an authentic initial 1969 production run pressed at RCA’s historic Rockaway, New Jersey plant. Revered by classic rock purists, this early heavy-wax pressing delivers an incredibly robust, driving analog punch that perfectly anchors the gritty, delta-style production. It brilliantly defines John Fogerty’s raw, gravelly vocal delivery, the deep bass tracking on the timeless swamp anthem "Born on the Bayou," and the full, uncompressed dynamic separation of their massive signature hit, "Proud Mary." Complete with its original dark blue and silver Fantasy label configuration, this seminal piece of roots-rock history offers superb shelf appeal and stands as an essential, high-fidelity upgrade for any serious 1960s classic rock or vinyl completionist collection.
