Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits (Celebration Edition)
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits (Celebration Edition) is a special limited-edition vinyl reissue of Creedence Clearwater Revival's landmark 1976 greatest hits compilation, released on June 12, 2026 via Craft Recordings. The Celebration Edition presents the album as a double LP pressed on eye-catching Red, White & Blue colored vinyl — a patriotic tribute befitting a band whose music has long served as a quintessential American soundtrack — and includes an exclusive CCR slipmat. The original Chronicle was first released in January 1976 on Fantasy Records as a comprehensive singles collection drawing from the band's remarkably productive 1968–1972 run, during which they released seven studio albums, placed fourteen songs in the Top Ten, and headlined Woodstock. Certified 12x Platinum by the RIAA, it remains the best-selling album in the band's catalog and has spent over 750 non-consecutive weeks on the Billboard 200.
The twenty tracks collected here represent the full sweep of CCR's achievement as one of rock's definitive singles bands, ranging from their earliest material through their final recordings. The tracklist moves from "Susie Q." and "I Put a Spell on You" through the swamp rock classics "Proud Mary," "Bad Moon Rising," "Green River," "Commotion," and "Fortunate Son," continuing through "Who'll Stop the Rain," "Up Around the Bend," "Run Through the Jungle," and "Lookin' Out My Back Door," and closing with later tracks like "Have You Ever Seen the Rain," "Hey Tonight," "Sweet Hitch-Hiker," and "Someday Never Comes." The collection also includes the band's celebrated eleven-minute cover of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." Unlike earlier CCR compilations, Chronicle was designed to include all of the group's charted hits in one place, and it remains not only an ideal introduction to the band but, as Craft Recordings notes, proof that "Creedence Clearwater Revival were one of the definitive singles bands of the late '60s and early '70s."
