I have most of Ragweed’s Cds. This one has some very memorable tunes on it. Nice mix of rockers and ballads as is the usual for CCR. Good lyrics from Cody Canada. I have to admit though I’m spoiled by Soul Gravy – their best IMHO … It’s unfair to compare every other Ragweed cd to that one however it has earned it’s place in my top 10. Mission California is worth the dinero and is a good listen for veterans and those not yet exposed to the CCR sound … once you dial in to any CCR tune you’re gonna be hooked!

CCR is my favorite band, the are the best band of modern times. Unbelievable lyrics, with great music, and the best fans. Like many in the northeast, I discovered them on Satelite Radio. Wish they would come to PA, so all I have is there CD’s and DVD’s. The album is fine but if you are not familiar with the band do not get this album as a first. Has some great songs, a great mood, but I would recommend some of their earlier albums

I am reaallly glad I bought this one. Not just a great picture on the cover, which is why I chose this one, but great driving home from work music.
