Pendulum (Creedence Clearwater Revival Album) - Background, Recording and Production

Background, Recording and Production

Like most Creedence albums, the songs on Pendulum were rehearsed at "the Factory" (as in Cosmo's Factory) in Berkeley, California and were recorded at Wally Heider Studios in San Francisco. Producing the album was John Fogerty. The album took about a month to complete, which was rather long for the group. The reason for this was John Fogerty's insistence on the horn section (which he played by himself), the keyboards, and backing vocals. As usual, the first take of a song was played by all four members with John going in later for the vocal and additional instrument overdubs. The album was remastered and reissued on 180 Gram Vinyl by Analogue Productions in 2006.

    He shall not die, by G—, cried my uncle Toby.
    MThe ACCUSING SPIRIT which flew up to heaven’s chancery with the oath, blush’d as he gave it in;—and the RECORDING ANGEL as he wrote it down, dropp’d a tear upon the word, and blotted it out for ever.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    The production of too many useful things results in too many useless people.
