Nine years and a dozen albums after their debut, Ike & Tina Turner released their top-selling album, 1970’s Workin’ Together. The tracklist featured five Ike Turner originals and a half dozen covers, including two Beatles songs.
The standout track — one that would become the duo’s biggest hit and signature song — was a cover of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s ‘Proud Mary.’
Awhile back, I was inspired by Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski to listen to some Creedence Clearwater Revival.
Creedence is The Dude’s favorite band, and their music is featured a few times in The Big Lebowski, most memorably in this scene.
CCR has a deep enough catalog that I made the rare decision to purchase a greatest hits compilation rather than go for a signature album. I know, I know, I still feel bad about it.
