WILLY & THE POOR BOYS, the fourth album by one of the world's all-time greatest rock bands, Creedence Clearwater Revival, remains a top-selling album in the CCR catalog with over 2 million copies sold to date. Reaching the top 50 in six countries upon it's release, the album stands as a landmark international success and one that cemented the band's legacy as a vanguard of American rock 'n' roll. Contains the ubiquitous chart-topping hit, 'Down On The Corner,' which rocketed into the top 10 in the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. and continues to be a mainstay on classic rock radio today. Additionally, the visceral 'Fortunate Son' is included here - an incendiary protest song that became inextricably linked to the Vietnam war, resulting in it's addition to the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress in 2014 for being 'culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant'. ## Images ![Willy & the Poor Boys - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/W/IMAGERENDERING_521856-T2/images/I/51ud-mIwYCL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Masterpiece! *by V***A on Reviewed in India on 26 October 2014* It's the best creedence album in my opinion! Fortunate Son rocks! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Creedence Peak *by R***W on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 March 2021* By the late sixties and early seventies The Creedence Clearwater Revival were one of if not the biggest American Band led by John Fogerty they produced a series of wonderful singles including classics such as Proud Mary [Ike & Tina Turner did a wonderful version], Bad Moon Rising, Up Around The Bend and from this album the fabulous angry Fortunate Son.Of the albums by Creedence my 2 favourites are Cosmos Factory and this one Willie And The Poor Boys, the bands sound has been described as swamp rock, music with a southern American vibe which is a mixture of country, blues and rock this was surprising as the band didn't hale from Alabama but from California!! . The album begins with Down On The Corner which has a sort of funky country rhythm it is followed by the rocking It Came Out Of The Sky then comes the country flavoured Cotton Fields this is as good a start to an album as you will find and it continues with tracks such as Midnight Special and of course Fortunate Son the last 2 tracks of the original album tend to lose slightly the momentum set up by the opening tracks then there are the extra tracks include 2 live tracks recorded on a tour of Europe and a version of Down On The Corner recorded with Booker T And The MG'S. So this is Creedence at the zenith of their popularity it didn't last the band were unhappy with John Fogerty's dominance of the band and pushed for more participation in the material this created acrimony within the group and by 1972 the band split with wounds that never healed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The sound of rock! *by S***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 May 2021* I have never enjoyed talking about Creedence Clearwater Revival. The band's back catalogue with the original four members is about as perfect as rock and roll ever got and it's really hard to review . Yet, here I am trying to review their fourth album, Willy And The Poor Boys. Another stone cold classic from the band.Willie and the Poor Boys was Creedence Clearwater Revival third and final album of 1969. The album was originally released through Fantasy Records in November of 69 and was produced by the band's singer and song writer John Fogerty. The album is ten tracks in total and is a good thirty five minutes in length.As a record, Willie and the Poor Boys is one of the band's best and probably one of their more recognisable. The track list features many classics including the opener, Down on the Corner, Effigy and a fantastic cover of Cotton Fields. It's mostly known for one of the band's most popular songs, Fortunate Son. A song that has been featured in every rock compilation over the last fifty years.Much like the albums that came before it, the album has a lovely raw tone to it. The guitars are distorted and the drums pack a punch, but it all sounds very natural and it really compliments the kind of simple music that the band play. John Fogerty's vocals are extremely powerful and ooze emotion, even on their cover versions. You'd think the group wrote Cotton Fields with the way they perform it. Absolutely fantastic in every way.This (and the others) are most definitely worth picking up. They're mandatory purchases for fans of old school rock music. You can easily buy it on the basis that it contains Fortunate Son, a fantastic song in its own right. The rest of the songs are just as good and there's no filler here at all. If you haven't got it, it's time to fix that. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/142525426-willy-and-the-poor-boys](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/142525426-willy-and-the-poor-boys) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
