Creedence Clearwater Revival Self-Titled 1968 Vinyl LP Fantasy 8382 Original Q

Creedence Clearwater Revival’s self-titled 1968 debut on Fantasy — the original blue/purple “Full Radial Stereo” pressing (Stereo 8382). Features the original “Suzie Q” hype sticker on the front cover, plus their breakthrough cover of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ “I Put a Spell on You.”

• Vinyl: black, plays side

• Sleeve: edge wear, light corner wear, surface aging consistent with a 1968 pressing; original “Suzie Q” promo sticker intact

• Record: light surface marks visible under direct light

Liner notes by Ralph J. Gleason (Rolling Stone consulting editor) framing CCR as the “Third Generation” of the San Francisco sound. Tracks include “I Put a Spell on You,” “Suzie Q” (the full 8:34 version), “Porterville,” “Walk on the Water,” and “Gloomy.”

The record where CCR’s swamp rock identity first came into focus — before the hits, before the breakup, just four guys from El Cerrito reinventing American roots music.
