Best CCR album?

I like Creedence but don't have an lp in my collection. Any recommedations on the one and only album to have?

John Fogerty was a pretty strong songwriter at that time. You probably won't be too disappointed with any of them (if you like their sound, that is).

It has a darker, moodier feel to it. It does not contain Suzy Q, that is on CCR's first album (sorry, Twl). If you want a good beginning CCR album, I would go with Willy and the Poor Boys. I love Fortunate Son. Hope this helps.
