I'm a huge CCR fan, but I have never owned a copy of Chronicle. I did buy Creedence Gold and More Creedence Gold years ago because they were cheap, but I have all the original studio albums, plus the two live albums released back in the day.
I don't think you're missing anything. Although Chronicle features the edited "Grapevine", I'm not sure if it is on the Gold compilations.
My father owned Chronicle on LP and I still have that copy. It was my introduction to everything CCR and I remember how amazing that picture of Fogerty on the front looked to me.
I do have a Collectables single of Grapevine, on orange vinyl. That recording always takes me back to when I was a drummer. I would put the album version on, and play along.
There is something special about CCR's "Grapevine". I mean the song itself is so great and I don't know if it's even possible to do a bad version of it but what CCR makes out of it is so totally different. It sounds like it's their song. Really cool. And I'm sure it's fun to drum along to it.
Yeah, it's a great one. Paul Revere and the Raiders did a version in the 80's that feels to me like a mashup of CCR's and Marvin's.
