Classic tune, great storytelling from one of the greatest American musical acts of its era. Or, for that matter, any era.
Caught this on PSD.
Hasn't been played since May 2012?
This song is too good to be out of circulation!

When I was a kid, ever so long ago, CCR on the radio always made me happy, and I have to ask again... just WHO is making this kind of music now?
Brother, let me share a truth with you: There are people, right now, making all kinds of music. The question you should be asking is: WHO is PUBLISHING and PROMOTING this kind of music?Further interesting questions are why isn't this kind of music being promoted and published, and what are the forces at play that have caused mainstream music to become what it is?

I always hear a lot of Jim Croce in this bands songs.

Why don't bands sound like this anymore? Something so authentic about their sound. God, what great tune.

I used to live in Lodi and I can attest that when you are a young man looking for something exciting to do on a Friday night, it is very easy to feel stuck in Lodi. I think that is the same in all small towns though. If you like the lifestyle, Lodi is actually very peaceful and chill. Fun fact: It is surrounded by vineyards and I think it is one of the largest wine producing regions in California.
Have you been to Lodi, Bill? They have many fine vineyards with excellent wines that they let you taste for free. :)

this is sweet—-i don't care how much I once heard them, always good.
JESUS I HADN'T HEARD THIS SONG FOR SUCH A LONG LONG TIME........BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES.THANK YOU
One of CCR's best, for sure.
Released in 1969,the year of R&R !

>>The song "Lodi," describes the plight of a musician who has wandered into Lodi, California (pronounced "low-die"), a small agricultural town about 70 miles from John Fogerty's hometown of Berkeley. After playing in local bars, he finds himself detesting the town but unable to raise bus or train fare to leave. Fogerty later said he had never actually visited Lodi before writing this song, and simply picked it for the song because it had "the coolest sounding name." However, the song unquestionably references the town's reputation as an uninteresting farm settlement, although the narrator does not mention any specific complaints about Lodi. The song's chorus, "Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again," has been the theme of several city events in Lodi.
Lodi is a little dry and a little dull
Was this the man from the magazine who said John was "on his way"?
