Creedence Clearwater Revival | Proud Mary (1969)

"Proud Mary" is a song written by John Fogerty and first recorded by his band Creedence Clearwater Revival.

1969-01-07 19:00:00 - Creedence

It was released by Fantasy Records as a single from the band's second studio album, Bayou Country, which was issued by the same record company and is generally considered to have been released in early January 1969, although one source states that it came out just before Christmas 1968.


The song became a major hit in the United States, peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1969, the first of five singles to peak at No. 2 for the group.


A cover version by Ike and Tina Turner, released two years later in 1971, did nearly as well, reaching No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and winning a Grammy Award.
