John's fifth solo studio album, i dont have "centrefield" but of the four solo outings i have i rate this one the best.
this was also John's first album on the fantasy/concord label since the demise of CCR back in the early 1970s and it came at a time when he was starting to play his old back catalogue live again...not sure if playing these old songs live again had anything to do with it but this one sure has a CCR feel to the songs.
i dont mind him revisiting his old sounds especially since he does it well and this album stands up well against those 'classic' late 60s, early 70s albums.
a great bluesy/country/heartland rock album filled with songs of recapturing the past 'good old days' with a couple of political rants thrown in the mix.
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
