About the song
Originally recorded by Creedence Clearwater Revival and covered by Tina Turner. This version is arranged by Johnie Vinson.
Roadmap
Played as fast as possible.
History
The original version of this song, by CCR, is just over 3 minutes in length. Our arrangement, played at the correct tempo, would be about the same. The song, however, is not particularly "peppy", so at some point, it was decided that the song should be played faster. This modification snowballed into an odd tradition of playing the song as fast as humanly possible - previously referred to as "on crack" in order to differentiate from playing it normally. The current "record time" on this song is somewhere around 42 seconds, which translates to a tempo of approximately whole note = 90.
At the recording of America's Pep Band in 2001, it was clocked at 56.5 seconds.
