John still has it when it comes to song writing. He matches the type of sound to the songs he wrote on this album perfectly. He uses the sound similar to what Clapton did in "Sunshine of Your Love" for a 60's song and then for the "Creedence Song" he uses little riffs & parts like they did in their heyday.If you like John's music this one doesn't disappoint. He's still anti-war-corruption etc. like before. However, it's just a more recurring theme. I like this album and the more I play it the better I like it.
