This album is a selection of tracks extract from 71's European tour.
Sides 1 & 3 of Live In Europe out in 1973.
The album documents the band performing as a trio, following Tom Fogerty's departure.
It was released, despite John Fogerty's strong objections, after his final struggles with Fantasy Records over his songwriting.
In 1973, Fogerty said he would never play a Creedence song again, as it would only benefit Fantasy Records—a promise he kept for some 20 years.
This record seems to have been released only in France, according to Discogs.
Released in 1975, probably with the motivation to profit from CCR's fame, after all the band had already broken up for 3 years.
These will be recordings from the last tour of the band, in 1972, partly because Tom Fogerty did not play.
It seems like someone came across a forgotten recording after a few years and just released it. In terms of sound quality and music it is not that great.
The band plays rather hastily, and here and there the second guitar is sorely missed. Furthermore there is simply too little on it, CCR was of course known for many short songs, but 25 minutes is really very little.
