I hear ya. Not a true solo, but how can you say this isn’t a kick ass guitar riff?
I just always put them more in the pop category. Not denying they were legendary. Plus it’s so old they didn’t have access to a lot of great gear the later guys had in terms of tone.
They did everything from country to blues to pop to heavy metal. I can name at least one song of each.
Creedence hits:
Good Golly Miss Molly
Travelin’ Band
Fortunate Son
Just sayin’.
Ok then, category was rock band, not everything band.
They were primarily rock. Lennon’s hero was Chuck Berry.
Suzie Q
Who’ll stop the Rain
Green River
Up Around the bend.
Who knew a bunch of guys from Berkeley would invent Cajun Rock?

Oh and also, my knowledge of rock falls off a cliff after 1980 because I switched to primarily a blues, indie and country fan. While still listening to the older rock I grew up on some times.
Home grown heroes for a kid growing up 12 miles from Berkeley in the Sixties.
West Coast kids puttin’ Swamp Rock on the charts. Still love 'em. 
I used to tell my kids when they were little “Creedence never did a bad song.” They, now in their mid thirties repeat that wisdom. 
Marcy who? YAWN! 
Nobody is redesigning the American Flag. I wonder, if anyone noticed that about 1/4 of the posts in politics these days has to do with faux racism?
Yep. She hasn’t been relevant since a bit part in Training Day has she?
Same. But I was still very disappointed when I learned they were not authentic Cajun.
