Lookin' Out My Back Door
"Lookin' Out My Back Door" is a song recorded by the American band Creedence Clearwater Revival, also known as CCR. The song was written by the band's lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter, John Fogerty. The song is included on their 1970 album ''Cosmo's Factory'', the group's fifth album, which was also their fifth and final No. 2 Billboard hit. It was certified Gold and in the early 1990s was also certified Platinum. In 2003 ''Cosmo's Factory'' was ranked 265 on Rolling Stone's list of 500 greatest albums of all time. However, the album signaled the decline and subsequent end for the band. "Lookin' Out My Back Door" was a direct tribute to the Bakersfield Sound, a form of music that influenced John Fogerty and the Creedence sound. Buck Owens, one of the architects of the ''Bakersfield Sound'', is even mentioned in the song's lyrics.
==Background==
After touring Europe in 1970 the band returned to their San Francisco studio and began recording what would be their fifth album, ''Cosmo's Factory'', which is widely credited as their finest. The name of the album came from an inside joke between members referencing the strict “factory” like work ethic they were adopting while practicing and writing. Cosmo came from Doug Clifford’s nickname, which was given to him because of his beliefs and interests in cosmic things. Later, Doug Clifford even named his first solo album Cosmo. After ''Cosmo's Factory'' was released in July 1970, "Lookin' Out My Back Door" achieved No. 2 on the Billboard’s Top 100 Hits. It reached number one on the Cash Box chart the week of October 3, 1970, and also reached #1 in Norway.
The band's fifth album signaled the beginning of the decline of the band, since tensions had been growing over John Fogerty's control over the band's music and business activities. The decline continued until 1972, when the band officially broke up. The era in which the song "Looking Out My Back Door" and the album "Cosmos Factory" came out marked the height of Creedence Clearwater Revival's popularity.
