Creedence Clearwater Revival had been worn down to a trio by the time they released their final album."Mardi Gras" brings together three Fogerty songs, three songs by bassist Stu Cook, two by drummer Doug Clifford, one colleboration by Clifford and Cook, and a cover of Gene Pitney's "Hello Mary Lou". Doug Clifford and Stu Cook claim that John Fogerty needed time to creatively recharge, while Fogerty says he simply bowed to their relentless pressure for equal time, but either way the result remains the same: "Mardi Gras" is by far the group's weakest effort.The two Fogerty-penned singles are bothmore… fine songs, the hard rock of "Sweet Hitch-Hiker" and the great, soulful "Someday Never Conmes". And his folkish, acoustic "Lookin' For A Reason", which reads suspiciously like a comment upon the state of the band, is a great song as well. And that's about it. Cook and Clifford contribute one or two fairly good numbers each, and they perform the lead vocals themselves, but nothing matches even the weakest of John Fogerty's songs.If Doug Clifford and Stu Cook had performed these songs in a band of their own, rather than under the Creedence name, it would be easier to be charitable, but when held up against Creedence Clearwater Revival's other work, "Mardi Gras" stands as an unpretty end to a great band...Pepe panzer
