  On February 29, 1972, Creedence Clearwater Revival performed live at the Budokan in Tokyo, a significant moment in their career. By this time, the band was at the peak of their popularity, having released their fifth studio album, "Cosmo's Factory," in July 1970, which included hits like "Lookin' Out My Back Door" and "Run Through the Jungle." Their subsequent album, "Pendulum," released in December 1970, showcased a shift in their musical direction but still resonated with fans. The live performance captured in the Budokan concert features many of their classic tracks, illustrating the band’s powerful stage presence and ability to connect with audiences globally. Notably, this performance occurred during a period when they were under significant pressure, facing internal tensions that would eventually lead to their breakup in 1972. The energy and enthusiasm displayed in this concert reflect both the band's immense popularity and the turbulence they were navigating behind the scenes.
