Cosmo's Factory

Cosmo's Factory is the fifth studio album by American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival, released by Fantasy Records in 1970. The name comes from the room where the band practiced in the beginning of their career. John Fogerty insisted there so that practiced was (almost every day) and the space was often so full of smoke from the other band members that drummer Doug "Cosmo" Clifford the ' the factory ' (the factory) call went. Well known songs from the album are "who'll Stop the Rain" and "I Heard It Through the Grapevine". Cosmo's Factory Rolling Stone placed at place 265 on his list 500 Greatest Albums.
