What you will learn
Up Around the Bend was recorded by Creedence Clearwater Revival on their 1970 album Cosmo's Factory. In this iVideosongs guitar lesson, instructor Steve Rieck shows how to play the “swamp rock” sound that characterizes John Fogerty’s guitar work in much of the CCR catalog, including chord comping and lead fills. Up Around the Bend is a fun challenge for beginning-level players that can be played on a single electric guitar in standard tuning. Tablature and chord grids are embedded in the video for all song segments along with a full song performance in sync with the backing track.
